Multiple intracranial aneurysms. Endovascular treatment by coils]

The authors report the case of a 30 years-old man presenting with 3 intracranial aneurysms, which were treated by endovascular techniques. The aneurysm responsible for two previous subarachnoid hemorrhages was a giant supracavernous left internal carotid artery aneurysm. Endovascular therapy using coils caused intraoperative rupture which was successfully managed by balloon occlusion of the internal carotid artery. The two other aneurysms (basilar top, and right middle cerebral artery) were small and asymptomatic; complete obliteration of both aneurysms was achieved by selective coils embolization. Persistent occlusion of the three aneurysms was documented ad six months angiographic follow up.

Case of a ruptured vertebral artery dissecting aneurysm recanalized after internal trapping

A 35-year-old male experienced a sudden onset of severe headache. A CT scan revealed subarachnoid hemorrhage. By cerebral angiography, he was diagnosed as having a ruptured right vertebral artery dissecting aneurysm (VADA). It was successfully treated by endovascular occlusion of the affected site, including the aneurysm and parent artery, by using detachable coils. A follow-up angiography obtained seven months after the first treatment revealed the recanalization of the right vertebral artery and dissected aneurysm in an antegrade fashion. A skull X-ray image was useful for detecting the change in appearance of the coils. The second embolization was successfully performed in the same manner. Based on this rare case, the authors emphasize that a careful angiographic analysis and complete internal trapping of the dissecting site are important in the treatment of the ruptured VADA.     

Rupture during the endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms: outcomes and technical aspects

Object

The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence and outcomes of intraprocedural rupture (IPR) during endovascular coil embolization of intracranial aneurysm at a single center and to explore the technical reasons and put forward corresponding preventive measures for the feared event to serve as references for other endovascular specialists.

Methods

The aneurysm database in our series was retrospectively reviewed. From April 2005 to March 2009, 176 aneurysms were consecutively treated with coils in 161 patients and IPR occurred in 12 patients. The medical records for the 12 patients were seriously examined.

Results

Of the 12 patients (6.8 %), four were men and eight were women with a median age of 56 years. An emergency “rescue clipping” of the lesion was carried out in two patients, parent artery occlusion was performed in two cases, endovascular treatment was terminated in one case and aneurysm coiling was rapidly completed in the remaining seven cases. Complete occlusion was achieved in nine aneurysms and incomplete occlusion in one. One patient died, yielding a mortality rate of 8.3 %. The follow-up duration was 6–30 months (median 14 months) and the mean Glasgow Outcome Scale score at the last follow-up examination was 4.3.

Conclusions

The rate of IPR during endovascular coiling of intracranial aneurysms is quite low and the clinical outcome from this complication need not be catastrophic if managed appropriately. Improved operation skill and practical experience exchange among neuroradiologists are essential to lower the incidence or better patient prognoses.     

Endovascular embolization vs surgical clipping in treatment of cerebral aneurysms: morbidity and mortality with short-term outcome

BACKGROUND: Endovascular embolization of cerebral aneurysms has evolved rapidly worldwide within the last years, and has gained more popularity at the expense of surgical clipping; however, both regimens have inherent risks. This study was undertaken to asses the cerebral complications associated with both modalities of cerebral aneurysm treatment. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the charts, operative and embolization reports, and imaging of patients who underwent surgical clipping or embolization for cerebral aneurysms at our institution between October 2001 and October 2004. Patients were divided into 2 groups: group A, patients who had confirmed subarachnoid hemorrhage; group B, patients with unruptured cerebral aneurysms. Patients belonging to group A were evaluated according to the Hunt and Hess scale with their computed tomography scan evaluated according to Fisher scale. Short-term outcome was measured with Glasgow Outcome Scale for both groups. RESULTS: One hundred thirty-three patients with 168 aneurysms were treated; 95 (71.4%) were women and 38 (28.6%) men; mean age was 60.28 years. Hypertension (29.6%) was the most commonly encountered risk factor; average size of aneurysms treated was 7.21 mm; 53 patients belonged to group A. Seven patients were Hunt and Hess grade I, 23 grade II, 11 grade III, 7 grade IV, and 5 grade V. Eighty patients belonged to group B; for both groups, the periprocedural technical complication rate associated with coiling was 8.4% vs 19.35% with clipping. Follow-up angiographic results were better with clipping, as total aneurysm occlusion was 81.4% vs 57.5% with coiling. In group A, the incidence of angiographic vasospasm was 17.4% vs 45.4% with coiling vs clipping, whereas the incidence of shunt-dependant hydrocephalus was comparable with embolization and clipping. In group A, excellent outcome was achieved in 62% vs 44% (endovascular vs surgical) of subgroups, whereas in group B, it was 93% vs 81%, respectively. CONCLUSION: With rapidly evolving technology of endovascular embolization, accumulated experience, and good selection of patients with optimum angioanatomical criteria and endovascular accessibility, our results of morbidity and mortality associated with both modalities of cerebral aneurysm treatment with short-term outcome show that endovascular embolization of cerebral aneurysms is a safe alternative to surgical clipping in the treatment of both ruptured and unruptured cerebral aneurysms; however, long-term outcome needs to be evaluated.     

Antegrade recanalization of a completely embolized vertebral artery after endovascular treatment of a ruptured intracranial dissecting aneurysm. Report of two cases

Occlusion of the parent artery is a traditional method of treatment of unclippable cerebral aneurysms. Surgical or endovascular occlusion of the parent artery proximal to the aneurysm has been recommended for the treatment of dissecting aneurysms located in the vertebrobasilar circulation. Nevertheless, occlusion of the parent artery may not result in permanent exclusion of the aneurysm from the systemic circulation because, occasionally, postoperative rebleeding occurs after proximal occlusion. Alternatively, endovascular occlusion of the affected site, including the aneurysmal dilation, and parent artery, is a safe and reliable treatment for dissecting aneurysms. The authors present two rare cases of ruptured vertebral artery (VA) dissecting aneurysms that were treated by endovascular occlusion of the affected site including the aneurysm and parent artery by using Guglielmi detachable coils. In both cases the VA recanalized in an antegrade fashion during the follow-up period. Based on these unique cases, the authors suggest that a careful angiographic follow up of dissecting aneurysms is required, even in patients successfully treated with endovascular occlusion of the affected artery and aneurysm.     

Intentional neck-plastic incomplete clipping followed by coil embolization for broad-necked distal BA aneurysms]

OBJECTIVE: We report three patients with broad-necked distal basilar artery (BA) aneurysms treated with intentional incomplete clipping followed by endovascular occlusion using Guglielmi detachable coils. METHODS: The location of the aneurysms was BA bifurcation in one patient and BA-superior cerebellar artery (SCA) in two. One patient presented with acute subarachnoid hemorrhage and two patients had incidental aneurysms. In two patients, endovascular treatment was thought to be difficult considering the morphology of the aneurysms and surgical treatment was performed as the first choice of treatment. One patient with a BA-SCA aneurysm underwent endovascular treatment using a remodelling technique first. However, it was impossible to place the coil preserving SCA, so surgical treatment was performed. In all patients, the attempt to pursue complete clipping was considered to be accompanied with high risks of morbidity, so neck-plastic incomplete clipping was performed intentionally. One to six days after the surgery, coil embolization was performed. RESULTS: In all patients, complete occlusion of the aneurysms was achieved and all patients had excellent clinical outcomes. CONCLUSION: Intentional neck-plastic incomplete clipping followed by endovascular coiling may be a useful treatment option for patients with broad-necked distal BA aneurysms.     

Endovascular occlusion of intracranial vessels for curative treatment of unclippable aneurysms: report of 16 cases

Among 121 intracerebral aneurysms presenting at one institution between 1984 and 1989, 16 were treated by endovascular means. All 16 lesions were intradural and intracranial, and had failed either surgical or endovascular attempts at selective exclusion with parent vessel preservation. The lesions included four giant middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms, one giant anterior communicating artery aneurysm, six giant posterior cerebral artery aneurysms, one posterior inferior cerebellar artery aneurysm, one giant mid-basilar artery aneurysm, two giant fusiform basilar artery aneurysms, and one dissecting vertebral artery aneurysm. One of the 16 patients failed an MCA test occlusion and was approached surgically after attempted endovascular selective occlusion. Treatment involved pretreatment evaluation of cerebral blood flow followed by a preliminary parent vessel test occlusion under neuroleptic analgesia with vigilant neurological monitoring. If the test occlusion was tolerated, it was immediately followed by permanent occlusion of the parent vessel with either detachable or nondetachable balloon or coils. The follow-up period ranged from 1 to 8 years. Excellent outcomes were obtained in 12 cases with complete angiographic obliteration of the aneurysm and no new neurological deficits and/or improvement of the preembolization symptoms. Four patients died: two related to the procedure, one secondary to rupture of another untreated aneurysm, and the fourth from a postoperative MCA thrombosis after having failed endovascular test occlusion. The angiographic, clinical, and cerebral blood flow criteria for occlusion tolerance are discussed.
