World Neurosurg 2017; 99:809.e7-809.e10. [PMID: 28087432 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2016.12.135] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2016] [Revised: 12/29/2016] [Accepted: 12/30/2016] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Ruptured intracranial fusiform aneurysms involving small-diameter parent arteries are difficult to treat. Parent artery occlusion is a relatively simple and reliable treatment. However, occasionally, the parent arteries have to be retained. The arrival of the low-profile stent (LVIS Jr.) has made reconstructive endovascular treatment for fusiform aneurysms involving small-diameter parent arteries possible. CASE DESCRIPTION This report describes an innovative method for stent-assisted coiling (stenting after coiling technique using only 1 microcatheter) and describes our initial experience and feasibility of this technique. However, this report carries all limitations of a technical case report of a single patient, including reproducibility, unknown potential of complications, absence of long-term follow-up, and comparative effectiveness or safety with current known techniques. CONCLUSIONS Stenting after a coiling technique using the LVIS Jr. stent provides a possible method for reconstructive endovascular treatment of intracranial fusiform aneurysms with parent arteries <1.5 mm in diameter.

[PMID: 27742503 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2016.09.124] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2016] [Revised: 09/27/2016] [Accepted: 09/29/2016] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND A spontaneous fusiform aneurysm in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) can present with both ischemic and hemorrhagic symptoms, but this aneurysm's clinical course and prognosis are unclear because of its rarity. CASE DESCRIPTION An asymptomatic fusiform-shaped aneurysm was found in a branch of the right middle cerebral artery (MCA) incidentally during a medical check-up in a 51-year-old woman with no medical history. This aneurysm was followed by annual magnetic resonance imaging with no medical treatment. A distal side of the branch of the MCA harboring the fusiform aneurysm gradually narrowed, and finally occluded 6 years after initial detection. The stump of the branch transformed into an aneurysmal dilatation, which grew for 2 years. To prevent future subarachnoid hemorrhage, surgical intervention was performed. An aneurysmal dilation with a thin wall was found to originate between an intact branch and a funicular occluded branch, which was obliterated with clip application. At 3-year follow-up, no regrowth or de novo aneurysm could be seen. CONCLUSION This is the first case report in which serial images demonstrate the stepwise occlusion of an artery with fusiform change and the evolution of a stump aneurysm in the MCA over an extended period.
