With the introduction of new devices and the development of approved devices, endovascular techniques are more and more considered as a treatment option for middle cerebral artery aneurysms (MCA). In this study, we present data on ruptured MCA aneurysms that were treated endovascularly in our hospital.
In a retrospective case series of ruptured MCA bifurcation aneurysms, 118 (94%) cases were managed endovascularly between May 2008 and July 2017. Most were managed with coiling (= 62) and the remaining were managed with stent-assisted-coiling (= 35) and endovascular flow disruptor (WEB-device) (= 21). We measured the clinical outcome at the time of discharge and long-term follow-up on the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) and evaluated the rates of periprocedural complications and retreatment.
A good clinical outcome (mRS 0-2) at discharge was achieved in 58.5% of these cases. Mortality rate was 19.5%. Nine aneurysms required retreatment. Eighty-three percent demonstrated a good clinical outcome at long-term follow-up (mRS 0-2). In total, 6 (5.1%) procedure-related complications and 10 (8.5%) disease-related complications occurred. No significant difference between reintervention, complications or outcome was found between the employment of different devices (P > 0.05). Endovascular treatment of ruptured MCA aneurysms at our practice showed similar morbidity and mortality to data published about surgical clipping.
The endovascular device evolution permits a feasible and safe treatment of ruptured MCA bifurcation aneurysms. Endovascular treatment can therefore be considered as an alternative treatment option to microsurgery for this type of aneurysm.
随着新设备的引入和已批准设备的发展,血管内技术越来越多地被认为是治疗大脑中动脉动脉瘤(MCA)的一种选择。在本研究中,我们介绍了在我院接受血管内治疗的破裂 MCA 分叉部动脉瘤的数据。
在一项回顾性破裂 MCA 分叉部动脉瘤病例系列研究中,2008 年 5 月至 2017 年 7 月间,我们对 118 例(94%)破裂 MCA 分叉部动脉瘤患者进行了血管内治疗。其中大部分采用弹簧圈治疗(=62 例),其余采用支架辅助弹簧圈治疗(=35 例)和血管内血流阻断装置(WEB 装置)治疗(=21 例)。我们在出院时和长期随访时(改良 Rankin 量表,mRS)测量临床结果,并评估围手术期并发症和再治疗率。
这些患者中有 58.5%在出院时获得了良好的临床结果(mRS 0-2)。死亡率为 19.5%。9 个动脉瘤需要再次治疗。83%的患者在长期随访时(mRS 0-2)获得了良好的临床结果。总的来说,发生了 6 例(5.1%)与操作相关的并发症和 10 例(8.5%)与疾病相关的并发症。不同设备的使用在再干预、并发症或结果方面没有显著差异(P>0.05)。我们的实践中血管内治疗破裂 MCA 动脉瘤的发病率和死亡率与已发表的关于手术夹闭的研究相似。
血管内设备的发展使得破裂 MCA 分叉部动脉瘤的治疗变得可行且安全。因此,血管内治疗可以被认为是此类动脉瘤的一种替代治疗选择。
