The advent of flow diverter (FD) stents has apparently reduced the role of microneurosurgery for paraclinoid aneurysms despite sparse high-quality evidence about their long-term effects. The present study critically reviews the overall results of a microneurosurgical series of 57 paraclinoid aneurysms. Of these aneurysms, 47.4% were regular in size while 19.3 were giant. Barami type I was predominant. In 21 aneurysms a hemorrhagic onset occurred. Pterional approach with intradural anterior clinoidectomy was preferred by far. Clipping was possible in 91.2% of aneurysms and a high-flow bypass was the choice in five cases. An mRS of 0–2 was achieved in 77.3% of patients, typically <50 years old. Visual field appeared improved or unchanged in 36.3% and 63.6% of the symptomatic patients, respectively. In 76.1% of incidental aneurysms, campimetry was unaffected by surgery. A complete aneurysm exclusion was achieved in 93% of cases using a single procedure. No recurrences were documented on an average follow-up of 54.1 ± 34 months. Microneurosurgery is still a valuable, definitive, and durable option for Barami type Ia, Ib, or II paraclinoid aneurysm, especially in patients <50 years old and visually symptomatic. Conditions other than these are ideal candidates for FD stents.
尽管关于血流导向(FD)支架长期效果的高质量证据稀少,但它的出现显然降低了显微神经外科手术治疗床突旁动脉瘤的作用。本研究批判性地回顾了一组57例床突旁动脉瘤显微神经外科手术的总体结果。在这些动脉瘤中,47.4%大小正常,19.3%为巨大型。I型Barami型为主。21例动脉瘤有出血性起病。目前翼点入路联合硬膜内前床突切除术是首选。91.2%的动脉瘤可以夹闭,5例选择高流量搭桥。77.3%的患者改良Rankin量表(mRS)评分为0 - 2分,这些患者通常年龄小于50岁。有症状患者中,分别有36.3%和63.6%的视野改善或未改变。76.1%的偶然发现的动脉瘤,视野检查未受手术影响。93%的病例通过单次手术实现了动脉瘤完全排除。平均随访54.1±34个月,未记录到复发。对于Ia、Ib或II型Barami型床突旁动脉瘤,显微神经外科手术仍然是一种有价值、确定性和持久性的选择,特别是对于年龄小于50岁且有视觉症状的患者。除此之外的情况是FD支架的理想适应证。
