Mimicking aneurysm in a patient with chronic occlusion of the left middle cerebral artery

The chronic occlusion of intracranial arteries generally has no or mild clinical symptoms,and the clinical symptoms of acute cerebral artery occlusion are mostly manifested as severe cerebral infarction symptoms,which often make early diagnosis difficult,thus losing the best treatment opportunity.Once cerebral infarction occurs,the consequences are difficult to recover.This is also an important reason for the high misdiagnosis rate and mortality of this disease.In this paper,the characteristics of the disease were analyzed to provide clinical reference.

Whole-brain CT Perfusion at Admission and During Delayed Time-window Detects the Delayed Cerebral Ischemia in Patients with Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Objective To evaluate the utility of computed tomography perfusion(CTP)both at admission and during delayed cerebral ischemia time-window(DCITW)in the detection of delayed cerebral ischemia(DCI)and the change in CTP parameters from admission to DCITW following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.Methods Eighty patients underwent CTP at admission and during DCITW.The mean and extreme values of all CTP parameters at admission and during DCITW were compared between the DCI group and non-DCI group,and comparisons were also made between admission and DCITW within each group.The qualitative color-coded perfusion maps were recorded.Finally,the relationship between CTP parameters and DCI was assessed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)analyses.Results With the exception of cerebral blood volume(P=0.295,admission;P=0.682,DCITW),there were significant differences in the mean quantitative CTP parameters between DCI and non-DCI patients both at admission and during DCITW.In the DCI group,the extreme parameters were significantly different between admission and DCITW.The DCI group also showed a deteriorative trend in the qualitative color-coded perfusion maps.For the detection of DCI,mean transit time to the center of the impulse response function(Tmax)at admission and mean time to start(TTS)during DCITW had the largest area under curve(AUC),0.698 and 0.789,respectively.Conclusion Whole-brain CTP can predict the occurrence of DCI at admission and diagnose DCI during DCITW.The extreme quantitative parameters and qualitative color-coded perfusion maps can better reflect the perfusion changes of patients with DCI from admission to DCITW.

Genetic causal relationship between tea intake and cerebral aneurysm: a two-sample Mendelian Randomization Study

Background:Prior research has established a strong link between cerebral aneurysm(CA)occurrence and inflammation.Tea intake(TI)has been found to have anti-inflammatory properties through multiple mechanisms,potentially lowering CA incidence.This study aims to employ Mendelian Randomization(MR)methodology to explore the genetic causality between TI and CA.Methods:We collected Genome-wide association study(GWAS)data for CA,TI,Green tea intake(GTI),Herbal tea intake(HTI),and Rooibos tea intake(RTI).The MR analysis employed the TwoSampleMR package and utilized the inverse variance-weighted(IVW)method.Results:The findings suggest no genetic causal relationship between TI and CA(IVW:OR=1.10,95%CI:0.59–2.05,P=0.772).Similarly,there is no genetic causal association between GTI and CA(IVW:OR=1.07,95%CI:0.91–1.26,P=0.388),HTI and CA(IVW:OR=1.00,95%CI:0.89–1.13,P=0.943),or RTI and CA(IVW:OR=1.02,95%CI:0.96–1.09,P=0.472).Conclusion:There is no genetic causal relationship between TI and CA,and the different types of tea do not change this result.Further MR analysis is needed to investigate whether there is a potential genetic causal association between the quantity of TI and CA.

Study on the role of Cathepsin B and JNK signaling pathway in the development of cerebral aneurysm

Objective: To investigate the correlation between JNK signal and the apoptosis of VSMC as well as the expression of Cathepsin B and to explore the role of JNK signal in the development of cerebral aneurysm. Methods: Rat models of cerebral aneurysm were established and histopathologic changes of cerebral aneurysm and the apoptosis of VSMC were analyzed. Rat models were respectively subject to subcutaneous injection of Cathepsin B si RNA and JNK inhibitor SP600125. Western blot technique was used to detect the expression of proteins like Cathepsin B, Caspase-3, and p-JNK. Spearman's rho was used to examine the correlation between p-JNK and Cathepsin B, as well as the expression of relevant proteins. Results:The success rate of modeling rats with cerebral aneurysm was 88.75%. After the respective injection of Cathepsin B si RNA, SP600125 and their combination, the cell densities of VSMC of rats with cerebral aneurysm all increased significantly(P<0.05 or P<0.01), but the apoptosis rate of VSMC decreased significantly(P<0.01). Compared with normal rats, the expression of Cathepsin B, Caspase-3 and p-JNK in cerebral aneurysm models increased significantly. Effectively intervening Cathepsin B genes with Cathepsin B si RNA could significantly inhibit the expression of Cathepsin B and Caspase-3, but hardly influence the expression of p-JNK. JNK inhibitor SP600125 had no influence on the expression of Cathepsin B and Caspase-3, but effectively inhibited the expression of p-JNK. In cerebral aneurysm tissues, positive correlation was observed between the expression of p-JNK and Cathepsin B, the correlation coefficient was r=0.640. Conclusion: After the attack of cerebral aneurysm, proteins like Cathepsin B, Caspase-3 and p-JNK are all involved in the apoptosis of VSMCs. This process may be realized by Cathepsin B which activates the apoptosis mechanism of Caspase-3 and mediate the apoptosis of VSMC through the JNK signaling pathway. Therefore, silencing Cathepsin B gene or inhibiting the conduction through JNK signaling pathway can mitigate the apoptosis of vascular smooth muscle cells in cerebral aneurysm.

Surgical Treatment of Poor Grade Middle Cerebral Artery Aneurysms Associated with Large Sylvian Hematomas Following Prophylactic Hinged Craniectomy

The clinical characteristics of patients who presented in poor clinical grade due to ruptured middle cerebral artery aneurysms （MCAAs） associated with large sylvian hematomas （SylH） were ana- lyzed and an ingenious designed prophylactic hinged craniectomy was introduced. Twenty-eight pa- tients were graded into Hunt-Hess grades IV-V and emergency standard micro-neurosurgeries （aneu- rysm clipping, hematoma evacuation and prophylactic hinged craniectomy） were performed, and their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. 46.43% of the patients reached encouraged favorable out- comes on discharge. The favorable outcome group and the poor outcome group significantly differed in terms of patients＇ anisocoria, Hunt-Hess grade before surgery, extent of the midline shift and time to the surgery after bleeding （P〈0.05）. There were no significant differences in age, sex, volume and location of the hematoma, size of aneurysm between the favorable and poor groups （P〉0.05）. However, ingen- ious designed prophylactic hinged craniectomy efficiently reduced the patients＇ intracranial pressure （ICP） after surgery. It was suggested that preoperative conditions such as Hunt-Hess grading, extent of the midline shift and the occurrence of cerebral hernia affect the prognosis of patients, but time to the surgery after bleeding and prophylactic hinged craniectomy are of significant importance for optimizing the prognosis ofMCAA oatients 19resenting with large SylH.

Intraoperative hemodynamic parameters of middle cerebral artery and other artery aneurysms utilizing transcranial Doppler ultrasonography

BACKGROUND： Hemodynamic changes accompany the initiation, development and rupture of middle cerebral artery （MCA） aneurysms. The complexity of the intraaneurysmal hemodynamic factors has not been completely clarified by the indirect measures and methods used in previous studies. OBJECTIVE： To evaluate correlations of intraoperative hemodynamic factors to initiation and rupture of MCA aneurysms. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING： A case-control study was performed at the Department of Neurosurgery, Tiantan Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University, China between March and October 2008. PARTICIPANTS： A total of 12 consecutive patients diagnosed with MCA aneurysms （MCA aneurysms group） and five patients without middle cerebral artery aneurysms （with aneurysms located at other arteries, control group） were enrolled at the Department of Neurosurgery, Tiantan Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University, China. METHODS： The proximal and distal arteries of MCA aneurysms were exposed visibly in the MCA aneurysm group. The M1 segment of MCA without the aneurysm and the aneurysm on other arteries were also exposed visibly in the control group. Hemodynamic indices were then measured using an intraoperative 16 MHz probe installed in a Multi-Dop TCD8X4 device. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES： Mean （time-averaged velocity） difference, maximum mean, pulsatility index difference, maximum pulsatility index, resistance index difference, maximum resistance index; correlation of development and rupture of MCA aneurysms to intraoperative hemodynamic factors of the parent artery. RESULTS： A total of 12 patients underwent microsurgery for treatment to occlude 15 MCA aneurysms. Of the 15 MCA aneurysms, 12 were located at the bifurcation, two at the M1 segment and one at the M3 segment; eight of the aneurysms were unruptured and seven were ruptured. The whole indices with combination mean difference, maximum mean, and maximum pulsatility index of the aneurysms were important factors influencing the rupture of MCA aneurysms （t = 2.92, P = 0.03, constant）. A higher velocity intraaneurismal flow at the bifurcation was identified （t = 3.48, P = 0.01, constant）. After the aneurysm was completely occluded, global high-velocity flow could not be detected in the parent arteries （t = 2.57, P=0.03, constant）. CONCLUSION： When short-term high-velocity blood flow is present, aneurysms can be easily initiated and ruptured at the bifurcation of MCA.

Outcomes of early physiotherapy in patients with cerebral aneurysms treated by surgical clipping or endovascular embolization

Early physiotherapy was given to 124 patients with ruptured or unruptured cerebral aneurysms who were treated by surgical clipping or endovascular embolization.Patients were divided into four groups according to their Hunt and Hess grade at admission and aneurysm treatment modality： Group 1,Hunt and Hess grade≤II and surgical clipping;Group 2,Hunt and Hess grade≤II and endovascular embolization;Group 3,Hunt and Hess grade≥III and surgical clipping;Group 4,Hunt and Hess grade≥III and endovascular embolization.Level of consciousness was evaluated using the Glasgow Coma Scale,functional status using the Glasgow Outcome Scale,level of the mobility using the Mobility Scale for acute stroke patients,and independence in activities of daily living using the Barthel Index.After early physiotherapy,the level of consciousness and functional status improved significantly in Groups 1,3,and 4;mobility improved significantly in all groups;and independence in activities of daily living improved significantly in Groups 1 and 3.At discharge, Groups 1 and 2 had better functional status than Groups 3 and 4.Level of consciousness,functional status,mobility and independence in activities of daily living improved after early physiotherapy. These findings suggest that early physiotherapy improved the prognosis of patients with cerebral aneurysms who were treated by surgical clipping or endovascular embolization.Patients with a worse clinical status at presentation had a poorer functional status at discharge.The outcome of physiotherapy was not affected by whether surgical clipping or endovascular embolization was chosen for treatment of the aneurysm.

Angiographic follow-up of cerebral aneurysms treated with Guglielmi detachable coils(GDCs): An analysis of 162 cases of 173 aneurysms

Objective To evaluate the mid- and long-term radiological outcomes of cerebral aneurysms with GDCs embolization.Methods One hundred and sixty-two patients with 173 aneurysms embolized with GDCs underwent angiographic follow-up from 1 to 54 months post-operatively and were retrospectively reviewed. Three neuro-radiologists reviewed each angiogram and made a comparison between initial and follow-up angiograms. Morphological outcomes were evaluated as follows: unchanged; progressive thrombosis; and re-opening or re-growth. Results Of 173 aneurysms with GDC embolization, 142 aneutysms had total or nearly total occlusion, 23 subtotal occlusion and 8 partial occlusion shown on initial angiograms. The incidence of re-opening was 17.1% (13/76) in less than 3 months, and 6.2% (6/97) between 3 and 6 months postoperatively. Four aneurysms showed recurrency(2.3%) on second follow-up angiography in one year after procedure and one-year cumulative recurrent rate was 13.3% of 56 aneurysms with the third follow-up angiography in the post-operation period of 12 to 54 months, four showed a little enlargement and the cmnulative recurrent rate so far was 20.2% (35/173). Conclusions The direct and main causes for aneurysmal recurrence are incomplete and loosening packing. The first angiographic follow-up is recommended to be performed at 3 months or earlier after the procedure, especially in aneurysms with initial incomplete occlusion. Re-treatment with balloon- or stent-assisted coil embolization is recommended in re-opening aneurysms.

Biomechanical Considerations in the Unruptured Cerebral Aneurysm Study (UCAS Japan): Rupture Risk and True Stress of Wall

When an unruptured aneurysm is found, deciding whether to operate or follow up is one of the most important issues. There are guidelines for making the best final decision on treatment, taking into account the effectiveness of diagnostic and therapeutic devices and the risk-benefit ratio of patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals. The guidelines evidence-based of large clinical data for this purpose are presented by national medical societies. As one of the rupture risk indicators, there is the hazard risk ratio derived by the UCAS Japan research group based on the statistical method of 6697 aneurysms in 5720 patients with cerebral aneurysms of 3 mm or more. Therefore, we investigated the biomechanical significance of this hazard risk ratio using a spherical aneurysm model. It was revealed that 1) the reason why the frequency of aneurysm rupture is relatively high up to about 10 mm, 2) the UCAS hazard risk ratio corresponds to stress of the aneurysm wall, and the true stress can be calculated by multiplying the patient’s blood pressure, and 3) the factors that cause the daughter’s sac (irregular protrusion of the aneurysm wall). In addition, our two methods for measuring the strength of the blood vessel wall of an individual patient were described.

Superficial Temporal Artery to Middle Cerebral Artery Bypass and Endovascular Parent Artery Occlusion in the Treatment of Giant Intracranial Aneurysms

The authors are reporting on a study drawn from unpublished dissertation done by the corresponding author when he completed his neurosurgical training in Paris, France in 2004, few years before the advent of flow diverters. The study was a retrospective review of giant intracranial aneurysms treated by superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery bypass combined with endovascular occlusion of the parent artery. From 1990 to 2003, 29 consecutive cases of giant cerebral aneurysms, not suitable to selective treatment were managed in that way. Twenty-one medical records had enough data to allow objective evaluation. Sixteen female and five male patients bearing 21 giant aneurysms were involved. Their mean age was 46 years. The aneurysm was revealed by mass effect in 13 cases and subarachnoid hemorrhage in one case. On admission 19 patients presented with unruptured aneurysms and two have sustained a subarachnoid hemorrhage. The balloon occlusion test before the bypass operation was not tolerated in 18 patients. The treatment was completed in 19 patients and 17 of them had parent artery occlusion with latex detachable balloons. The only death of the series occurred before the endovascular treatment. The mean follow-up period was 30 months. After completion of the treatment, 16 (84%) patients had no symptom. Aneurysm recanalization or rupture was not observed after the parent artery occlusion. With the combination of superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery bypass + endovascular parent artery occlusion, 90% of giant intracranial aneurysms untreatable selectively were permanently excluded with a good outcome in 95%.

Complications, imaging results, and midterm clinical outcomes of pipeline embolisation device in the treatment of cerebral aneurysms

Background: The introduction of pipeline embolisation device (PED) has improved the feasibility of endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms. The device allows for endoluminal reconstruction across the aneurysm neck but is permeable enough that flow is preserved across the pressure gradients into sidebranch arteries. In spite of higher rates of aneurysm occlusion, there is lack of data concerning medium to long-term clinical and imaging results. Methods: This study was a prospective single center analysis of complications, imaging results, and medium term clinical outcomes after PED treatment of intracranial aneurysms. We included cases over a 17-month period in a tertiary interventional neuroradiology center. We collected data on demographics, vascular risk factors, clinical presentation, angiographic results post treatment, angiographic follow-up and clinical follow-up. Results: Thirty-three patients were included, 25 females and 8 males, with mean age of 55 years;3 presented with acute subarachnoid hemorrhage and 30 for elective treatment. Thirty-seven aneurysms were treated: 35 Internal Carotid Artery (ICA), 1 basilar trunk fusiform, and 1 vertebral artery intradural dissecting aneurysms. No deaths have occurred. Five patients suffered transient neurological complications (15%). Overall aneurysm occlusion was demonstrated in 85% of patients at the end of one year. Discussion:?Overall, the technique of flow diversion and endoluminal reconstruction differs greatly from the established endosaccular packing techniques of standard coiling, balloon remodeling, or stent assisted coiling. Our midterm follow-up confirms that, the rates of clinically significant complications compare favorably with published data on stent assisted coiling, potentially making these devices a truly revolutionizing technique.

Computed Tomography Angiography Compared to Catheter Based Angiography in Evaluation of Cerebral Arterial Aneurysm and Arteriovenous Malformation

Both cerebral arterial aneurysm and arteriovenous malformation are cerebrovascular disease, which required immediate diagnosis and urgent treatment. Since the introduction of multislice CT scanners, CT angiography (CTA) has become a powerful tool for imaging the vascular system. The goal of this study is to compare catheter based angiography and CTA in the evaluation of cerebral arterial aneurysm and arteriovenous malformation AVM. A retrospective analysis of 50 patients for exploring the record of patient who underwent both multislice CT angiography (MSCTA) and catheter based angiography before treatment is presented during last one year in the department of Radiology, King Fahd Hospital-Jeddah, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The sensitivity of CTA for picking up aneurysm is 86% and the sensitivity of catheter based angiography for picking up aneurysm is 97%. The specificity of CTA for picking up aneurysm is (76%), the false positive cases are (3%) and the false negative cases are 10%. The sensitivity of both CTA and catheter based angiography for picking up arteriovenous malformation is (90%). The specificity of CTA for picking up AVM is (76%), the false positive cases are (10%) and no false negative cases in CTA are found. The sensitivity and specificity of catheter based angiography is 100% in diagnosis and detection of cerebral arterial aneurysm and AVM. The present study concluded that CTA has high sensitivity and specificity in detecting aneurysm and AVM enough to be chosen as the first step. Catheter based angiography, still a gold standard for radiology examination, is the most accurate, sensitive and specific method in diagnosis and detection of cerebral arterial aneurysm and arteriovenous malformation, which can be done as the second step. In addition, catheter based angiography is done for treatment planning, treatment with interventional procedure and for prognosis after treatment.

Unruptured Aneurysm at the Origin of the Duplicated Middle Cerebral Artery Treated by Coil Embolization: A Case Report

Aneurysm at the origin of a duplication of the middle cerebral artery (DMCA) is very rare, and only 29 treated cases have been reported. All of the cases were treated by direct surgery except a ruptured case treated by intentional partial coil embolization. We report the first unruptured case treated by coil embolization and review the previously published cases. Coil embolization can be alternative treatment for an unruptured aneurysm at the origin of the DMCA. Stable framing to spare the origin of it and prevention of thromboembolic complications are keys for safe treatment.

Three-Dimensional Cerebral Aneurysm Models for Surgical Simulation and Education—Development of Aneurysm Models with Perforating Arteries and for Application of Fenestrated Clips

We modified a three-dimensional cerebral aneurysm model for surgical simulation and educational demonstration. Novel models are made showing perforating arteries arising around the aneurysm. Information about perforating arteries is difficult to obtain from individual radiological data sets. Perforators are therefore reproduced based on previous anatomical knowledge instead of personal data. Due to their fragility, perforating arteries are attached to the model using hard materials. At the same time, hollow models are useful for practicing clip application. We made a model for practicing the application of fenestrated clips for paraclinoid internal carotid aneurysms. Situating aneurysm models in the fissure of a brain model simulates the real surgical field and is helpful for educational demonstrations.

Analysis on Emergency Microsurgical Treatment for Cerebral Hernia Caused by Intracranial Anterior Circulation Aneurysm with Intracranial Hematoma

Objective: This study is to discuss CT performances and direct surgical strategy as well as therapeutic effect of patients who have rupture hemorrhage of intracranial anterior circulation aneurysm with complications of intracranial hematoma and cerebral hernia. Methods: CT performances and treatment of 14 patients who have rupture hemorrhage of intracranial anterior circulation aneurysm with complications of intracranial hematoma and cerebral hernia in our hospital from March, 2019 to March, 2021 were reviewed. The relationship between hematoma caused by intracranial anterior circulation aneurysm and position of the aneurysm was analyzed. Besides, surgical processing keys were discussed. Results: For all selected patients, intracranial hemorrhage is proved to be caused by rupture of aneurysm. Among them, there are 2 cases of anterior communicating aneurysms, 3 cases of posterior communicating aneurysms, and 9 cases of middle cerebral aneurysms. According to exploration, we found 1 case of multiple aneurysm, which is the combination of a middle cerebral aneurysm (the responsible aneurysm) and ipsilateral posterior communicating aneurysm. There were two cases of intraoperative rupture. In this study, 3 patients died. According to GOS grading at 3 months after the operation, there were 1 case of V-grade (good recovery), 3 cases of IV-grade (self-maintenance), 5 cases of III-grade (severe disabled), 2 cases of II-grade (persistent vegetative state) and 3 cases of I-grade (died). Conclusions: Emergency microsurgical treatment can lower the death rate of cerebral hernia caused by intracranial anterior circulation aneurysm with intracranial hematoma and recover the neurological functions to the maximum extent.

Clinical Efficacy of Shenmai Injection in the Treatment of Cerebral Vasospasm after Ruptured Aneurysm Surgery

Objective: To investigate the therapeutic effect of Shenmai Injection on postoperative cerebral vasospasm in patients with ruptured aneurysms. Methods: Seventy patients undergoing craniotomy for ruptured aneurysms in our hospital were selected as study subjects and randomly divided into control (n = 33) and research (n = 37) groups, they were treated with nimodipine and nimodipine combined with Shenmai injection after operation. The blood flow velocity in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) before and at 1, 3, 7, 11 and 14 days after surgery and the incidence of cerebral vasospasm during these days were compared, and the GCS scores at 14 days postoperatively and GOS scores at 6 months postoperatively were compared between the two groups. Results: There were no statistically significant differences in the occurrence of cerebral vasospasm, GCS or GOS scores between the two groups (P > 0.05), but the period of postoperative cerebral vasospasm in the study group was significantly shorter than that in the control group. Conclusion: Shenmai injection has the effect of shortening the cycle of occurrence of cerebral vasospasm after the operation of ruptured aneurysms, promoting patients to recover as early as possible and reducing their physical and mental burden.

Azygos anterior cerebral artery aneurysm with concomittant vascular anomaly:Case report

A 51-year-old man presented with subarachnoid haemorrhage with mild hydrocephaly. Digital substraction angiography and 3-D Computerised Angiogram (CT) revealed a saccular aneurysm at bifurcation of azygos anterior cerebral artery (ACA) and other vascular variations such as vertebral artery fenestration and hypoplasia in one anterior cerebral artery. We performed aneurysmal neck clipping with good outcome and postoperative 3-D CT angiogram showed complet obliteration of aneurysm. Although azygos arteries are rare in healthy population, aneurysms of azygos ASA are not rare due to increased haemodynamic stress. We wanted to point out to better visualisation of anatomical variations at 3-D CT angiogram comparing DSA in patients with intracranial aneurysm.

Clinical application of retrograde cerebral perfusion for brain protection during the surgery of ascending aortic aneurysm:50 cases report

Objective To assess retrospectively the effects of different protective methods on brain in ascending aortic aneurysm surgery. Methods In 65 patients, aneurysm was dissected to the aortic arch or right arch. To protect brain, deep hypotermic circulatory arrest ( DHCA.) combined with retrograde cerebral perfusion ( RCP) June 2003 Vol11 No2 through the superior vena cava ( n = 50) and simple DHCA ( n = 15) were used during the procedure. Blood samples for lactic acid level from the jugular vein were compared in both groups at different plase, and perfusion blood distribution and oxygen content difference between the perfused and returned blood were measured in some RCP patients. Results The DHCA time was 35.9 ± 8 min (10. 0 - 63. 0 min) and DHCA+ RCP time was 45.5 ± 17. 2 min (16. 0 - 81. 0 min)The resuscitationtime was 7.1 ± 1.6 h (4.4 - 9.4H)in DHCA patients and 5.4±2.2h(2.0-9.0 h)in RCP patients. Operation death was 3/15 in the DHCA group and 1/50 in the RCP patients. Central nervous complication
