[Endovascular Treatment of Blood Blister-like Aneurysms in Internal Carotid Artery].
摘要
OBJECTIVES: To study the feasibility and effectiveness of endovascular treatment to blood blister-like aneurysms (BBA) in internal carotid artery. METHODS: Retrospective analyzed the clinical features, outcomes, and complications of 20 cases of BBA treated with endovascular intervention techniques from 2013-2015 in our center. RESULTS: The patients were treated with covered stent, internal carotid artery balloon occlusion, and stents assisted coiling, respectively. One death occurred after the patient accepted covered stent treatment, another 2 death was due to vasospasm after internal carotid artery balloon occlusion, and double stents assisted coiling, respectively. The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score when patients being discharged were 0-2 in 15 cases, and 3-4 in 2 cases. There were 17 cases with clinical follow-up from 1 to 26 months (9.3 months on average), the mRS scores were all less than 2 points. 16 cases accepted angiographic review. 14 cases had BBA totally occluded, 1 case had stable neck residue, and 1 case had incompleted occlusion and the aneurysm dwindled at follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: Stent-assisted coiling is feasible and effective in the treatment of BBA in internal carotid artery.
