The aim of our study was to assess the mid-term efficacy and safety of the FRED X flow diverting stent (FDS) in the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. The FRED X FDS is relatively new with limited data on its longer-term effectiveness and safety profile.
Patients with intracranial aneurysms treated with the FRED X FDS at two UK centres, between March 2021 and July 2022 with at least 18 months follow-up, were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical, procedural and imaging data was analyzed.
Twenty-two patients with 24 aneurysms treated with the FRED X device, and had completed at least 18 months of follow-up, were included in this study. The rate of complete aneurysm occlusion (Raymond-Roy Class I) was 83.3% at a mean follow-up duration of 21.5 months. One case of major adverse event (4.3%) related to a post-procedural stroke which is also the only case of permanent neurological deficit (4.3%) in our cohort. Three cases of minor adverse events (13.0%) and 2 cases of asymptomatic adverse events (8.7%) were also recorded.
Use of the FRED X FDS to treat intracranial aneurysms has acceptable safety profile and efficacy in the mid-term.
本研究旨在评估FRED X血流导向支架(FDS)治疗颅内动脉瘤的中期疗效和安全性。FRED X FDS相对较新,关于其长期有效性和安全性的数据有限。
回顾性分析2021年3月至2022年7月期间在英国两个中心接受FRED X FDS治疗且至少随访18个月的颅内动脉瘤患者。分析临床、手术和影像学数据。
本研究纳入了22例使用FRED X装置治疗24个动脉瘤且至少完成18个月随访的患者。平均随访21.5个月时,动脉瘤完全闭塞率(Raymond-Roy I级)为83.3%。1例主要不良事件(4.3%)与术后卒中有关,这也是我们队列中唯一一例永久性神经功能缺损(4.3%)。还记录了3例轻微不良事件(13.0%)和2例无症状不良事件(8.7%)。
使用FRED X FDS治疗颅内动脉瘤在中期具有可接受的安全性和疗效。
