Comparison of surgical and endovascular treatments for fusiform intracranial aneurysms: systematic review and individual patient data meta-analysis. Neurosurg Rev 2020; 44:2405-2414. [PMID: 33205313 DOI: 10.1007/s10143-020-01440-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2020] [Revised: 10/14/2020] [Accepted: 11/12/2020] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
Fusiform intracranial aneurysms (FIA) are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. We carried out a systematic review and meta-analysis of individual participant data with propensity score adjustment to compare the functional and angiographic outcomes between surgical and endovascular approaches to FIA. We conducted a systematic review for articles on the treatment of FIA with individual patient-level detailing. Data from patients treated for FIA in our institution from 2010 to 2018 were also collected. The primary studied outcome was morbidity, and secondary outcomes were angiographic results and retreatment. Propensity score-adjusted mixed-effects logistic regression models evaluated treatment options, stratified by anatomical location. Compiling original and published data, there were 312 cases, of which 79 (25.3%) had open surgery, and 233 (74.5%) were treated with endovascular procedures. There were no differences between treatment groups, for neither cavernous ICA (OR 1.04, 95% CI 0.05-23.6) nor supraclinoid aneurysms (OR 7.82, 95% CI 0.65-94.4). Both size (OR 1.11, 95% CI 1.03-1.19) and initial mRS (OR 2.0, 95% CI 1.2-3.3) were risk factors for morbidity, independent of location. Neither age nor rupture status influenced the odds of posterior morbidity. Unfavorable angiographic outcomes were more common in the endovascular group for supraclinoid and vertebrobasilar aneurysms (χ2, P < 0.01). There were no differences between morbidity of surgical and endovascular treatments for FIA, regardless of aneurysm location. Size and initial mRS were correlated with functional outcomes, whereas age and rupture status were not. Microsurgery seems to yield better long-term angiographic results compared to endovascular procedures.

Abstract
Conventional endovascular treatment may have limitations for vertebral dissecting aneurysm involving the origin of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA). We report our experiences of treating vertebral dissecting aneurysm with PICA origin involvement by placing a stent from the distal vertebral artery (VA) to the PICA to save the patency of the PICA. Stenting from the distal VA to the PICA was attempted to treat ruptured VA dissecting aneurysm involving the PICA origin with sufficient contralateral VA in eight patients. The procedure was successfully performed in seven patients with one failure because of PICA origin stenosis, which was treated with two overlapping stents. In the seven patients, PICAs had good patency on postoperative angiography and transient lateral brainstem ischemia represents a procedure-related complication. Follow-up angiographies were performed in seven patients and showed recanalization of the distal VA in three patients without evidence of aneurysmal filling. There was no evidence of aneurysm rupture during the follow-up period, and eight patients had favorable outcomes (mRS, 0 - 1). Placing a stent from the distal VA to the PICA with VA occlusion may present an alternative to conventional endovascular treatment for vertebral dissecting aneurysm with PICA origin involvement with sufficient contralateral VA.
