ABSTRACT
Objective:
To investigate the feasibility,effectiveness and safety in the treatment of symptomatic middle cerebral artery stenosis with stenting.Methods:
Twelve patients with middle cerebral artery stenosis were treated with stenting from August 2005 to December 2006.Among these patients,9 were male and 3 were female.The meam(SD)age was 69(5.3)years(range 56 to 81 years).The mean(SD)stenosis degree was 84.2%(3.7)(range 50% to 99%).All patients were successfully treated with balloon-expanded stents.and there was not any severe complications.Results:
The rate of residual stenosis after the procedures was≤20%.No cerebral ischemic symptoms recurred in the patients over a 6-to 18-month follow-up period.Conclusions:
Endovascular stenting is a safe and effective approach in the treatment of symptomatic middle cerebral artery stenosis,and its short-term effect is significant.
