The purpose of this study was to investigate the imaging characteristics of fenestrated anterior communicating artery (AcomA) aneurysm and clinical outcome of patients with fenestrated AcomA aneurysm.
We performed a retrospective study of consecutive patients with AcomA aneurysms between January 2013 and December 2017. According to the vascular variations of the AcomA, the patients were divided into 2 groups: fenestrated AcomA aneurysms and non-fenestrated AcomA aneurysms. Baseline characteristics, clinical complications, and outcomes of patients were analyzed.
A total of 217 patients with AcomA aneurysms were included in this study. Compared to non-fenestrated AcomA aneurysms, the size of fenestrated AcomA aneurysms was significantly smaller (P < 0.001). Moreover, the patients with fenestrated AcomA aneurysms had a higher rate of rebleeding (P = 0.036), hydrocephalus (P = 0.017), delayed cerebral ischemia (P = 0.021), and pulmonary infection (P = 0.017) than those with non-fenestrated AcomA aneurysms. According to the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) at follow-up, the patients with fenestrated AcomA aneurysms had a higher rate of disability (P = 0.035) (GOS 2-3) and mortality (P = 0.013) (GOS 1).
Fenestrated AcomA aneurysms are associated with higher clinical complications, and identification of AcomA fenestration contributes to successful clipping of AcomA aneurysms.
本研究旨在探讨前交通动脉(AcomA)动脉瘤开窗的影像学特征及开窗型 AcomA 动脉瘤患者的临床结局。
我们对 2013 年 1 月至 2017 年 12 月连续收治的 AcomA 动脉瘤患者进行了回顾性研究。根据 AcomA 的血管变异情况,将患者分为 2 组:开窗型 AcomA 动脉瘤和非开窗型 AcomA 动脉瘤。分析患者的基线特征、临床并发症和结局。
本研究共纳入 217 例 AcomA 动脉瘤患者。与非开窗型 AcomA 动脉瘤相比,开窗型 AcomA 动脉瘤的瘤体较小(P<0.001)。此外,开窗型 AcomA 动脉瘤患者再出血发生率(P=0.036)、脑积水发生率(P=0.017)、迟发性脑缺血发生率(P=0.021)和肺部感染发生率(P=0.017)均高于非开窗型 AcomA 动脉瘤患者。根据随访时的格拉斯哥结局量表(GOS)评分,开窗型 AcomA 动脉瘤患者残疾率(P=0.035)(GOS 2-3)和死亡率(P=0.013)(GOS 1)较高。
开窗型 AcomA 动脉瘤与较高的临床并发症相关,识别 AcomA 开窗有助于成功夹闭 AcomA 动脉瘤。
