摘要
目的小脑后下动脉(PICA)动脉瘤并不常见,治疗起来也很有挑战性,特别是当它们是非常小的囊状动脉瘤或位于PICA近端和中部的解剖性假性动脉瘤时。它们通常在技术上难以用传统的血管内重建方法治疗。我们介绍了与传统血管内方法相比,使用具有中等分流效果的独立小、低姿态支架(低姿态可视化腔内支架(LVIS Jr))治疗异禀性动脉瘤的经验。方法回顾性分析2015年至2022年5月我院收治的未破裂异位动脉瘤病例。分析患者特征,术前和术后图像,最后的临床和放射学结果。采用比较统计分析。结果独立LVIS Jr治疗未破裂异位动脉瘤9例(1组),其他常规方法治疗7例(2组)。平均年龄56例,61.43岁;性别为女性7例,6例;1组和2组左侧受累7例,4例。所有动脉瘤均位于异食节段近端,除1例位于异食节段中端外。两组动脉瘤类型差异有统计学意义(p = 0.008)。除1组有5个解剖型,2组有2个解剖型外,其余动脉瘤均为囊状型。1组平均动脉瘤大小为1.91±0.62 mm, 2组平均动脉瘤大小为9.04±5.82 mm (p
Stand-alone small low-profile braided stents for challenging unruptured posterior inferior cerebellar artery aneurysms compared to conventional endovascular methods: A cohort study.
ObjectivePosterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA) aneurysms are uncommon and may be challenging to treat, especially if they are very small saccular or dissecting pseudoaneurysms at proximal and mid-PICA locations. They are usually technically difficult to treat with conventional reconstructive endovascular methods. We present our experience with PICA aneurysms treated by a stand-alone small, low-profile stent with a moderate flow-diverting effect (low-profile visualized intraluminal support junior (LVIS Jr)) compared to conventional endovascular methods.MethodsSingle institution cases of treated unruptured PICA aneurysms from 2015 to May 2022 were retrospectively reviewed. Patient characteristics, pre-and postoperative images, and last clinical and radiological outcomes were analyzed. Comparative statistical analysis was used.ResultsNine cases of unruptured PICA aneurysms treated with stand-alone LVIS Jr (group 1) and seven cases treated with other conventional methods (group 2) were identified. The mean age was 56 versus 61.43 years, sex was female in 7 versus 6 cases, and the left side was involved in 7 versus 4 cases in group 1 and group 2, respectively. All aneurysms were in the proximal PICA segment except for one case in the mid-PICA segment aneurysm in each group. There was a difference in aneurysm type in both groups (p = 0.008). All aneurysms were of saccular type except for five dissecting types in group 1 and 2 in group 2. The mean aneurysm size was 1.91 ± 0.62 in group 1 and 9.04 ± 5.82 mm in group 2 (p < 0.0002). In group 2, treatment was with PICA sacrifice (one case), primary aneurysm coiling (three cases), stent-assisted coiling (one case), and flow diverter (two cases). Complications were only puncture site-related that occurred once in each group. There were no differences in mean clinical or radiological follow-up. Aneurysm recurrence with retreatment occurred in two cases in each group. All patients had an mRS 0-2 at the last follow-up.ConclusionIn selected cases, unruptured small or dissecting PICA aneurysms may be treated safely and effectively using single stand-alone LVIS Jr. Prospective studies are needed to validate safety and efficacy.
