ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the clinical effects and safety of surgical clipping and intravascular interventional therapy in treatment of intracranial wide-necked aneurysm.Methods The clinical data of 158 patients with intracranial wide-necked aneurysm from February 2010 to February 2013 were retrospectively analyzed,all patients were divided into two groups:surgical clipping group with 92 cases and intravascular interventional therapy group with 66 cases,the postoperative curative effects,treatment time,hospital stay,hospital expenses and postoperative complications between two groups were compared.Followed up for 10-46 months,the recurrence rate were compared.Results The good prognosis and defective rates between surgical clipping group and intravasular interventional therapy group had no significant difference [90.2％(83/92) vs.90.9％(60/66),9.8％(9/92) vs.9.1％ (6/66)] (x2 =0.298,P ＞ 0.05).The preoperative Hunt-Hess classification and CT Fisher classification between two groups had no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Six months after discharge,mRS score was used to evaluate the curative effect,the defective rates in same level patients between two kinds of treatment methods had no significantdifference (P ＞ 0.05).The treatment time,hospital stay in surgical clipping group were significantly longer than those in intravascular interventional therapy group [(4.03 ± 1.01) h vs.(1.61 ± 0.98) h,(15.90 ± 2.03) dvs.(13.20 ± 1.95) d],hospital expenses was significantly lower than that in intravascular intervention therapy group [61 829.4 ±320.6) yuan vs.(99 876.2 ±371.5) yuan] (P ＜0.05).The postoperative complications rate between two groups had no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Followed up for 31.3 (10-46) months,the recurrence rate in surgical clipping group was significantly lower than that in intravascular intervention therapy group [1.1％ (1/94) vs.8.8％ (6/68)] (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Surgical clipping and intravascular interventional therapy in treatment of intracranial wide-necked aneurysm has their own different characteristics,so patients' treatment methods should be based on their preoperative status (especially preoperative Hunt-Hess and Fisher classification) and patients' economic conditions.
ABSTRACT
Objective To summary indications and treatment results of operation and endovascular interventional therapy for intracranial aneurysms. Methods From 1992 to 2003 , 345 cases of intracranial aneurysms were reviewed .We putted attention to condition of patients and the size, shape and site of aneurysms particulary. Angiography was requested in all patients at different times. Results 236 patients undergo clipping operation . 31 patients appeared operation complications. 6 patients with postoperative hemorrhage recepted surgical operation again.9 cases died.3 patients were reoperated because of aneurysm clips translatory. 103 cases were embolized by microcoil.4 cases suffered transient aphasia after embolization, recovered after medical treatment. 1 patients died because of cerebral vessel spasm. 6 patients recepted medical treatment. Conclusions Operation is suitable for very small,gaint aneurysms which locate anterior circulation and indovascular interventional therapy for small, middle, big aneurysms. The result needs further long term follow-up study.
