RESUMO
Objective To investigate the prognostic influence factors of Solitaire stent thrombectomy in patients with acute anterior circulation macrovascular occlusion. Methods From March 2015 to March 2017,222 consecutive patients with acute anterior circulation macrovascular occlusion admitted to the Department of Neurosurgery,the 101stHospital of People′s Liberation Army and the Nanjing Jinling Hospital were enrolled retrospectively.They were all confirmed by DSA and were treated with Solitaire stent thrombectomy. According to the modified Rankin Scale(mRS) scores at 90 d after treatment,they were divided into a good prognosis group (0-2,n=120) and a poor prognosis group (3-6,n =102). The baseline data and clinical data of the two groups of patients were analyzed,including the risk factors for cardiocerebrovascular diseases,baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score,occlusion sites (internal carotid artery or middle cerebral artery occlusion),collateral compensatory,onset to puncture time, operation time,onset to recanalization median time,recanalization status,preoperative Alberta stroke programme early CT score(ASPECTS),and symptomatic cerebral hemorrhage,and then further multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted for the prognostic factors of patients. Results (1) The rate of good prognosis was 54.1% (120/222).There were no significant differences in patients′ age,NIHSS at admission,ASPECTS at admission,sex,hypertension,occlusion site,and rate of good collateral branches in both groups(all P<0.05).There were no significant differences in other baseline data (all P >0. 05). (2) Onset to puncture time and onset to successful recanalization median time of the patients in good prognosis group was lower than that of the poor prognosis group (182 [138,230]min vs.236[170,305]min, 237[175,269]min vs.288[223,367]min).The proportion of successful recanalization was higher than that of the poor prognosis group (98.3% [118/120] vs.78.4% [80/102]).The proportion of postoperative symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage was lower than that of the poor prognosis group (2.5% [3/120] vs.21.6% [22/102]).There was significant difference between the two groups (all P <0.01). There was no significant difference in operative time between the two groups (P >0.05). (3)In the single factor analysis,the parameter of P <0.05 was used as an independent variable,and prognosis was used as a dependent variable,multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the increased age (OR,1.096,95% CI 1.050-1.144),history of hypertension (OR,8.401,95% CI 2.960-23.845),increased baseline NIHSS score (OR,1.071,95% CI 1.007-1.138),prolonged onset to successful recanalization time (OR,1.019,95% CI 1.003-1.035),symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage after procedure (OR,18.110,95% CI 4.656-70.434) were all the risk factors for poor prognosis(all P<0.05);higher ASPECTS score at admission(OR,0.641,95% CI 0.451-0.911) and successful recanalization (OR,0.127,95% CI 0.024-0.664) were all the protective factors of good prognosis (all P<0.05). Conclusions Higher ASPECTS at admission and successful recanalization were the protective factors of poor prognosis of Solitaire stent thrombectomy in patients with acute anterior circulation macrovascular occlusion.Increased age,history of hypertension,increased baseline NIHSS score,prolonged onset to successful recanalization time,and symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage after procedure were the risk factors for poor prognosis of Solitaire stent thrombectomy in patients with acute anterior circulation macrovascular occlusion.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the feasibility of the arterial wall imaging technology of high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging ( HR-MRI) in the risk assessment of intracranial aneurysm rupture. Methods Fifty-four patients with 66 intracranial aneurysms underwent 3. 0 T HR-MRI multiple sequences arterial wall imaging from November 2013 to March 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. Five patients with ruptured aneurysm were used as a control group. The characteristic differences of aneurysm lesions between an unruptured intracranial aneurysm ( UIA) wall enhancement group and a non-enhancement group were compared. The risk factors for rupture were analyzed according to the size,location, and basic clinical characteristics of aneurysm. Results (1) HR-MRI revealed that whether the aneurysm walls enhanced or not,there were no significant differences in the location size,wide-necked aneurysm or not,and ratios of aneurysm height and neck width (all P >0. 05). (2) The enhancement rates of the aneurysm volume <2 group and ≥2 group were 20%(8/40) and 61. 9%(13/21) respectively,the incidence of the ruptured aneurysm asci was higher than that of UIA,and there was significant difference ( all P<0. 05). There were no significant differences in neck width,rate of aneurysm volume,ratios of aneurysm height and neck width,and enhancement rates among the groups. Conclusion The preliminary results of this study have showed that there is a related trend between the HR-MRI aneurysm wall enhancement and the risk of rupture,but a further large sample follow-up study is needed.
