Abstract
OBJECTIVE
To explore the relationship between asymmetric deep cerebral venous (ADCV) filling and poor outcomes after endovascular treatment (EVT) in patients with acute basilar artery occlusion (ABAO).
METHODS
ABAO patients were selected from a prospectively collected data at our center. The DCV filling was evaluated using computed tomography perfusion (CTP)-derived reconstructed 4D-DSA or mean venous map. ADCV filling was defined as the internal cerebral vein (ICV), thalamostriate vein (TSV), or basal vein of Rosenthal (BVR) presence of ipsilateral filling defects or delayed opacification compared to the contralateral side. Poor prognosis was defined as a modified Rankin scale score >3 at the 90-day follow-up.
RESULTS
A total of 90 patients were enrolled in the study, with a median Glasgow Coma Scale of 6, 46 (51.1%) showed ADCV filling, 59 (65.6%) had a poor prognosis, and 27 (30.7%) had malignant cerebellar edema (MCE). Multivariate adjusted analysis revealed significant associations between asymmetric TSV and poor prognosis (odds ratio, 9.091, p = 0.006); asymmetric BVR (OR, 9.232, p = 0.001) and asymmetric ICV (OR, 4.028, p = 0.041) were significantly associated with MCE.
CONCLUSION
Preoperative ADCV filling is an independent influencing factor for the poor outcome after EVT in ABAO patients.
