Rebleeding of a vertebral artery dissecting aneurysm during stent-assisted coil embolization: a pitfall of the "stent and coil" technique 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
BACKGROUND: A stent-assisted coil embolization has been applied as a novel choice of treatment for vertebral artery dissecting aneurysms (VADAs). CLINICAL PRESENTATION: A 45-year-old man suffered from subarachnoid hemorrhage three times within 2 hours. The left vertebral angiogram showed a VADA at the distal origin of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery. The right vertebral artery was hypoplastic, and collateral circulation to the posterior fossa was poor. INTERVENTION: Stent-assisted coil embolization was performed under general anesthesia. The aneurysm was excluded from the circulation with good patency of the vertebral artery, although the fourth coil caused rebleeding from the aneurysmal dome during the procedure. CONCLUSION: This is the first case report that demonstrates rebleeding from VADA during stent-assisted coil embolization in the acute stage of its rupture. We have to be aware of the risks and be ready to prevent fatal complications with this novel technique. 相似文献

A 50-year-old man presented with a 2-month history of dysarthria caused by a partially thrombosed vertebral artery (VA) aneurysm. Magnetic resonance imaging showed enhancement of the thickened wall and angiography detected staining. Stent-assisted coil embolization with protection of the parent artery patency was performed. The patient's clinical course was unremarkable and shrinking of the aneurysm was obtained. The stent-assisted coil embolization promoted intra-aneurysm flow disruption and stabilized the wall environment, suggesting another strategy for the treatment of partially thrombosed VA aneurysm. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Vertebral artery dissecting aneurysm is now increasingly recognized as a cause of posterior circulation stroke in young adults. Here, we report a case of bilateral VADA with SAH, treated by bilateral coil occlusion using GDCs. CASE DESCRIPTION: A 64-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with consciousness disturbance (Hunt and Kosnik: grade 4). Computed tomography showed diffuse SAH with a thick hematoma in the left C-P angle. Magnetic resonance angiography, 3D-CTA, and cerebral angiography revealed bilateral VADAs. First, the ruptured left VADA involving the PICA and a perforating branch was treated by occluding the lower half of the VADA and the proximal VA with GDCs in the acute stage. Thereafter, the residual VADA and contralateral VADA exhibited enlargement on cerebral angiography and MRA for 2 months after the initial surgery; thus, the right VADA was occluded by GDCs just proximal to the right PICA after confirming BTO tolerance. CONCLUSION: Staged bilateral VA coil occlusions combined with BTO may be one of the treatment strategies for bilateral VADA with SAH in cases presenting surgical difficulty due to anatomical factors or severe grade of SAH. 相似文献

We describe a case of the combined application of endovascular stent implantation and Guglielmi detachable coil packing for the treatment of a vertebro-basilar fusiform aneurysm and review the literature on stent placement to treat cerebral aneurysms. A 70-year-old female presented with an acute headache from subarachnoid hemorrhage. A fusiform aneurysm with a broad-based neck and dome, measuring 15 mm, involving the union of the vertebral arteries and the proximal basilar artery was demonstrated on cerebral angiography. The aneurysm was judged to be inoperable and treated conservatively. Twelve days later the patient was transferred to our hospital for endovascular therapy. An intravascular stent (MultiLink) was placed across the base of the aneurysm through the right vertebral artery. After this, coil placement in the aneurysm around the stent was performed via a microcatheter guided from the left vertebral artery. After that a microcatheter was guided from the right vertebral artery through the interstices of the stent into the aneurysm, and additional coils were placed. Final angiography showed subtotal occlusion of the aneurysm and excellent blood flow of the parent artery through the stent. There were no new neurological deficits. Neither rerupture nor ischemic event has occurred. The use of stents provides another treatment for managing the difficult entity of intracranial aneurysms. 相似文献

Transluminal stent-assisted coil embolization of a vertebral confluence aneurysm: technique report 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
BACKGROUND: Recent advances in stent technology have allowed for negotiation of often tortuous posterior circulation intracranial vasculature. Stent-assisted coil embolization is a novel treatment for complex wide-necked aneurysms, as stents provide a buttress that allows for coil deposition while preventing coil herniation into the parent vessel lumen. We describe a case of stent-assisted coil embolization of a complex wide-necked vertebral confluence aneurysm. CASE DESCRIPTION: A 61-year-old woman presented with a Hunt-Hess III, Fisher Grade III subarachnoid hemorrhage secondary to a ruptured vertebral confluence aneurysm demonstrated on angiography. The patient underwent emergent angiography and attempted coiling of a vertebral confluence aneurysm. Because of the aneurysm's complex wide neck and the presence of subclavian steal syndrome, the coils repeatedly herniated into the left vertebral and basilar artery lumina. A flexible coronary stent was deployed across the aneurysm neck, preventing coil herniation and allowing for greater coil deposition. The patient tolerated the procedure and underwent repeat coiling 2 months postoperatively because of mild coil compaction. This resulted in 100% occlusion and the patient is neurologically normal except for a sixth nerve palsy which had been present after the hemorrhage. CONCLUSION: Recent advances in stent technology allow negotiation of the tortuous posterior circulation vasculature. Stent-assisted coil embolization of complex, wide-necked vertebral confluence aneurysms may be an alternative intervention for these surgically challenging lesions. 相似文献

We present a case with asymptomatic mediastinal bronchial artery aneurysm at the origin of the left bronchial artery. This bronchial artery aneurysm was successfully treated with percutaneous transluminal coil embolization. Complete embolization of the feeding artery and tributaries from the aneurysm is the key to successful isolation of a large bronchial artery aneurysm from the circulation. Percutaneous transluminal embolization is one of the treatment options for a patient with asymptomatic, incidentally-identified bronchial artery aneurysm. 相似文献

Intravascular graft stent treatment of a ruptured fusiform dissecting aneurysm of the intracranial vertebral artery: technical case report 总被引:23,自引:0,他引:23
OBJECTIVE AND IMPORTANCE: An innovative stenting technique to treat a difficult case of a fusiform aneurysm of the intracranial vertebral artery (VA), with restoration of the vessel lumen, is described. CLINICAL PRESENTATION: A 58-year-old patient experienced sudden pain in the upper cervical spine, followed by a severe headache. He underwent computed tomographic evaluation, which demonstrated subarachnoid hemorrhage in the prepontine cistern. A fusiform aneurysm of the distal right VA and critical stenosis of the left VA were detected in digital subtraction angiograms. The patient experienced a new subarachnoid hemorrhaging episode, and urgent endovascular treatment was planned. INTERVENTION: The patient underwent angioplastic and stenting procedures in the left VA, with good results. Forty-eight hours later, an endovascular procedure was performed to treat the right VA aneurysm. We decided to use a graft stent (Jostent graft stent; Jomed, Conroe, TX) instead of a balloon to preserve the arterial lumen. The complete procedure was well tolerated by the patient, and he was discharged, without symptoms, 48 hours later. CONCLUSION: The patient was discharged, without neurological deficits, 48 hours after completion of the endovascular procedure, with clopidogrel (75 mg/d) and aspirin (325 mg/d) therapy. This treatment was discontinued after 4 weeks. According to our search of the medical literature, this is the first clinical case in which an intracranial fusiform aneurysm was permanently sealed with a graft stent. 相似文献

The authors present the case of a 61-year-old male with a de novo fusiform vertebral artery aneurysm, probably due to non-traumatic dissection. He underwent flow diversion therapy, using a double overlapping technique, because the origin of the contralateral vertebral artery was stenotic. Placement of two stents resulted in marked reduction of blood flow in the aneurysm. Postoperative course was uneventful. Follow-up 3D-CT angiography revealed a patent blood flow in the stent and a gradual progression of intra-aneurysmal thrombosis. Flow diversion therapy can potentially obliterate the complicated cerebral aneurysm with the preservation of blood flow in the parent artery, and would be one of the important therapeutic options in patients with complicated aneurysms in which conventional strategies such as neck clipping, endovascular coiling and parent artery occlusion are not feasible or contraindicated. 相似文献

Brainstem infarction after delayed thrombosis of a stented vertebral artery fusiform aneurysm: case report 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Levy EI Boulos AS Bendok BR Kim SH Qureshi AI Guterman LR Hopkins LN 《Neurosurgery》2002,51(5):1280-4; discussion 1284-5
OBJECTIVE AND IMPORTANCE: Recent technological advances have provided clinicians with stents that can be navigated throughout the tortuous proximal vessels of the posterior intracranial circulation. There have been few reports of fusiform and wide-necked aneurysms treated with stents. Of the known risks involved in stent placement in the intracranial circulation, delayed stent thrombosis has not been well described. CLINICAL PRESENTATION: A 34-year-old man who experienced the sudden onset of a severe headache with increasing lethargy was found on computed tomographic imaging to have a subarachnoid hemorrhage. Angiography revealed a left vertebral artery fusiform aneurysm that incorporated the posteroinferior cerebellar artery origin. INTERVENTION: A low-porosity Magic Wallstent (Boston Scientific, Natick, MA) was placed in the left vertebral artery across the aneurysm and the origin of the posteroinferior cerebellar artery. Angiography performed 9 days later revealed significant reduction in filling of the aneurysm. The patient returned 3 months after stent placement with severe neurological deterioration from a brainstem infarction caused by complete thrombotic occlusion of the left vertebral artery at the stented segment of the vessel. CONCLUSION: Stenting of fusiform aneurysms has provided an alternative to surgical clipping or parent vessel reconstruction. With the increasing frequency of intracranial stent placement for various cerebrovascular disease entities, we must become aware of potential complications associated with these procedures. Such awareness may influence decision-making processes regarding treatment and follow-up care. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: A rare case of fusiform vertebral artery aneurysm causing hemifacial spasm was successfully treated by intravascular embolization.CASE DESCRIPTION: A 53-year-old man presented with left hemifacial spasm persisting for 2 years. No other clinical symptoms were observed. Vertebral angiography revealed a fusiform aneurysm of the left vertebral artery, and thin-slice spoiled gradient-recalled acquisition magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated the aneurysm compressing the root exit zone of the left facial nerve. The parent artery was occluded together with the aneurysm by intravascular embolization with Guglielmi detachable coils (GDCs). The patient is free of left hemifacial spasm without any complication.CONCLUSION: Hemifacial spasm caused by aneurysms, especially fusiform aneurysms, is quite rare but can be treated by parent artery occlusion and coiling the aneurysm with GDCs. 相似文献

An unusual case of vertebral arteriovenous fistula treated with electrodetachable coil embolization.

Vertebral arteriovenous fistulas (VAF) are rare clinical entities. Most are post-traumatic in origin, following direct injury, or iatrogenic. Treatment options include endovascular occlusion or direct surgical closure. We present a rare case of a spontaneous VAF, presenting with cervical and upper limb pain in a patient with previous chiropractic manipulations, successfully treated with electrodetachable coil embolization. While the natural history of the VAFs is still to be settled, endovascular occlusion appears to be a safe and reliable method to deal with such lesions, mainly in symptomatic cases. The use of electrically detachable coils may be considered as an effective alternative for the endovascular occlusion of these fistulas. 相似文献

First described in 1989, HIV-related aneurysms have been rarely reported. Considered atypical if compared to classic atherosclerotic diseases, they show no preferred location and frequently involve young patients with no other risk factors for atherosclerosis but with an impaired immune system. They are probably related to an auto-immune damage inside the aortic wall associated with a necrotizing perivasculitis. Visceral artery aneurysms are rare and life-threatening diseases; the superior mesenteric and gastro-duodenal and pancreatic vessels are rarely involved. The advantages related to the endovascular approach to these aneurysms seems to be even more effective in immuno-impaired patients (i.e. HIV+). We report a case of a young patient affected by a HIV-related gastroduodenal artery aneurysm which was treated with a combined percutaneous and endovascular approach. 相似文献

Recurrence of a vertebral artery dissecting pseudoaneurysm after successful stent-supported coil embolization: case report 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
OBJECTIVE AND IMPORTANCE: Dissecting aneurysms of the intracranial vertebral artery are increasingly recognized as a cause of subarachnoid hemorrhage. We present a case involving technical success of the stent-supported coil embolization but with recurrence of the dissecting pseudoaneurysm of the intracranial vertebral artery. The implications for the endovascular management of ruptured dissecting pseudoaneurysms of the intracranial vertebral artery are discussed. CLINICAL PRESENTATION: A 36-year-old man with a remote history of head injury had recovered functionally to the point of independent living. He experienced the spontaneous onset of severe head and neck pain, which progressed rapidly to obtundation. A computed tomographic scan of the head revealed subarachnoid hemorrhage centered in the posterior fossa. The patient underwent cerebral angiography, which revealed dilation of the distal left vertebral artery consistent with a dissecting pseudoaneurysm. INTERVENTION: Transfemoral access was achieved under general anesthesia, and two overlapping stents (3 mm in diameter and 14 mm long) were placed to cover the entire dissected segment. Follow-up angiography of the left vertebral artery showed the placement of the stents across the neck of the aneurysm; coil placement was satisfactory, with no residual aneurysm filling. Approximately 6 weeks after the patient's initial presentation, he developed the sudden onset of severe neck pain. A computed tomographic scan showed no subarachnoid hemorrhage, but computed tomographic angiography revealed that the previously treated left vertebral artery aneurysm had recurred. Angiography confirmed a recurrent pseudoaneurysm around the previously placed Guglielmi detachable coils. A test balloon occlusion was performed for 30 minutes. The patient's neurological examination was stable throughout the test occlusion period. Guglielmi detachable coil embolization of the left vertebral artery was then performed, sacrificing the artery at the level of the dissection. After the procedure was completed, no new neurological deficits occurred. On the second day after the procedure, the patient was discharged from the hospital. He was alert, oriented, and able to walk. CONCLUSION: We appreciate the value of preserving a parent vessel when a dissecting pseudoaneurysm of the intracranial vertebral artery ruptures in patients with inadequate collateral blood flow, in patients with disease involving the contralateral vertebral artery, or in patients with both. However, our case represents a cautionary note that patients treated in this fashion require close clinical follow-up. We suggest that parent vessel occlusion be considered the first option for treatment in patients who will tolerate sacrifice of the parent vessel along its diseased segment. In the future, covered stent technology may resolve this dilemma for many of these patients. 相似文献

Aneurysms of the gastroduodenal artery are rare. Reported here is the case of a 60-year-old woman suffering from the covered rupturing of a twin aneurysm of the gastroduodenal artery. The patient presented herself in the surgical emergency unit with abdominal discomfort. Diagnostics showed free fluid in the abdominal cavity together with anemia of 9.9 g/dL. A computed tomography scan and an angiography revealed the covered rupturing of a twin aneurysm of the gastroduodenal artery, which was treated by endovascular coiling of the gastroduodenal and pancreaticoduodenal arteries. The patient's hemoglobin level remained stable after treatment, and she was released from the hospital after 18 days. Visceral artery aneurysms are rare. Although endovascular therapy is preferred in cases involving active bleeding, surgery remains the primary therapy in those cases in which bleeding becomes uncontrollable. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: We present a case of ruptured vertebral dissecting aneurysm that exhibited cerebellar hemorrhage after successful embolization of the vertebral artery including the dissected site. CASE PRESENTATION: A 59-year-old man suffered a sudden onset of severe occipital headache when he looked up. Computed tomography demonstrated subarachnoid hemorrhage. Angiography revealed a right vertebral dissecting aneurysm distal to the posterior inferior cerebellar artery. Endovascular embolization of the aneurysm was performed with preservation of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery. The next day, the patient suffered a cerebellar hemorrhage in the vermis. The intracranial pressure was controlled by external ventricular drainage. The patient was discharged with mild cerebellar ataxia and bilateral abducens nerve palsy. CONCLUSION: In a case of vertebral dissecting aneurysm distal to the posterior inferior cerebellar artery, blood circulation in the vertebral arterial system may change after embolization of the aneurysm. In our case, the preserved posterior inferior cerebellar artery might have been hemodynamically stressed postoperatively, resulting in cerebellar hemorrhage. Therefore, strict control of blood pressure is essential in the acute stage after occlusion of the aneurysm. 相似文献

Althogh peripheral pulmonary aneurysm is a rare entity, the majority of cases become fatal if left untreated, due to sudden rupture and exsanguination. This emphasizes the need for treatment whenever a diagnosis made. A 81-year-old woman was found to have a coin lesion in the left middle field. Enhanced computed tomography (CT) showed strong staining and pulmonary angiography revealed a saccular dilation of the left A3b branch of the pulmonary artery. Successful embolization of the branch of the pulmonary artery was performed. 相似文献

Previously, renal arterial aneurysms were thought to be extremely uncommon. However, these lesions are now being detected more frequently as incidental findings on computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The incidence of ruptured renal artery aneurysms is very low. A 58-year-old man presented to a physician complaining of left flank pain and was diagnosed as having a left kidney stone. Abdominal CT scan demonstrated a mass in the left renal pelvis. The mass measured 40mm in diameter and showed calcification. The patient was referred to our hospital 5 days after the first attack. Left renal mass was diagnosed as renal aneurysm based on clinical signs and perirenal findings on CT. Emergent endvascular embolization was performed. The postoperative course was uneventful. Hypertension improved after embolization. 相似文献
