Transanal eco-Doppler evaluation after hemorrhoidal artery embolization.

BACKGROUND: Hemorrhoidal artery embolization (Emborrhoid) is a novel method for the treatment of severe hemorrhoidal bleeding. Despite having a technical success rate of 93%-100%, the clinical success ranges between 63% and 94%, with a rebleeding rate of 13.6%. AIM: To evaluate the effectiveness of this procedure in reducing hemorrhoidal flow and hemorrhoidal bleeding. METHODS: This prospective observational pilot study was conducted at Division of General Surgery 1 and Tertiary Referral Pelvic Floor Center, Treviso Regional Hospital, Italy. In a 2 months period (February-March 2022), consecutive patients with hemorrhoidal bleeding scores (HBSs) ≥ 4, Goligher scores of II or III, failure of non-operative management, and a candidate for Emborrhoid were included. Endoanal ultrasound with eco-Doppler was performed preoperatively and 1 month after the procedure. The primary endpoint was to quantify the changes in arterial hemorrhoidal flow after treatment. The secondary endpoint was to evaluate the correlation between the flow changes and the HBS. RESULTS: Eleven patients underwent Emborrhoid. The overall pretreatment mean systolic peak (MSP) was 14.66 cm/s. The highest MSP values were found in the anterior left lateral (17.82 cm/s at 1 o'clock and 15.88 cm/s at 3 o'clock) and in the posterior right lateral (14.62 cm/s at 7 o'clock and 16.71 cm/s at 9 o'clock) quadrants of the anal canal. After treatment, the overall MSP values were significantly reduced (P = 0.008) although the correlation between MSP and HBS changes was weak (P = 0.570). A statistical difference was found between distal embolization compared with proximal embolization (P = 0.047). However, the coil landing zone was not related to symptoms improvement (P = 1.000). A significant difference in MSP changes was also reported between patients with type 1 and type 2 superior rectal artery (SRA) anatomy (P = 0.040). No relationship between hemorrhoidal grades (P = 1.000), SRA anatomy (P = 1.000) and treatment outcomes was found. CONCLUSION: The preliminary findings of this pilot study confirm that Emborrhoid was effective in reducing the arterial hemorrhoidal flow in hemorrhoidal disease. However, the correlation between the post-operative MSP and HBS changes was weak. Hemorrhoidal grade, SRA anatomy and type of embolization were not related to treatment outcomes.

Intranodal Lymphangiography and Embolization for Management of Iatrogenic Chylous Ascites after Oncological Surgery.

PURPOSE: To investigate the safety and effectiveness of intranodal lymphangiography (INL) and lymphatic embolization (LE) in management of chylous ascites after oncologic surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Retrospective review of records of patients who underwent INL with or without LE from January 2017 to June 2022 was performed. Adult patients with chylous ascites after oncologic surgery referred to interventional radiology after failure of conservative treatment were included. Thirty-nine patients who underwent 55 procedures were included (34 males and 5 females). Data on patient demographics, procedural technique, outcomes, and follow-up were collected. Descriptive statistics were used to illustrate technical success, clinical success, and adverse events. Univariate logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate factors predicting clinical success. RESULTS: INL was technically successful in 54 of 55 procedures (98%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 90%-100%). A lymphatic leak was identified in 40 procedures, and LE was attempted in 36. LE was technically successful in 33 of the 36 procedures (92%; 95% CI, 78%-98%). Clinical success, defined as resolution of ascites with no need for peritoneovenous shunt placement or additional surgery, was achieved in 22 of 39 patients (56%; 95% CI, 40%-72%). Clinical success was achieved in 18 patients after 1 procedure, and patients who required repeat procedures were less likely to achieve clinical success (odds ratio, 0.16; 95% CI, 0.04-0.66; P = .012). Four grade 1 procedural adverse events were recorded. CONCLUSIONS: INL with or without LE is a safe minimally invasive tool that can help patients with chylous ascites after oncologic surgery who failed conservative treatment avoid more invasive interventions.

QTc prolongation after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage might be associated with worse neurologic outcome in patients receiving microsurgical clipping or embolization of the intracranial aneurysms: a retrospective observational study.

PURPOSE: QT interval prolongation is one of the most common electrocardiographic (ECG) abnormalities in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). Whether corrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation is associated with perioperative cardiac events and dismal neurological outcome in mid to long-term follow-up in patients after aSAH is insufficiently studied and remains controversial. METHODS: We retrospectively studied the adult (≥ 18 years) patients admitted to our institution between Jan 2018 and Dec 2020 for aSAH who underwent intracranial aneurysm clipping or embolization. The patients were divided into 2 groups (normal and QTc prolongation groups) according to their QTc. To minimize the confounding bias, a propensity score matching (PSM) analysis was performed to compare the neurologic outcomes between patients with normal QTc and QTc prolongation. RESULTS: After screening, 908 patients were finally included. The patients were divided into 2 groups: normal QTc groups (n = 714) and long QTc group (n = 194). Female sex, hypokalemia, posterior circulation aneurysm, and higher Hunt-Hess grade were associated with QTc prolongation. In multiple regression analysis, older age, higher hemoglobin level, posterior circulation aneurysm, and higher Hunt-Hess grade were identified to be associated with worse outcome during 1-year follow-up. Before PSM, patients with QTc prolongation had higher rate of perioperative cardiac arrest or ventricular arrhythmias. After PSM, there was no statistical difference between normal and QTc prolongation groups in perioperative cardiac events. However, patients in the QTc prolongation group still had worse neurologic outcome during 1-year follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: QTc prolongation is associated with worse outcome in patients following SAH, which is independent of perioperative cardiac events.

Safety and efficacy of stent-assisted coil embolization with periprocedural dual antiplatelet therapy for the treatment of acutely ruptured intracranial aneurysms.

PURPOSE: Despite growing evidence for the effectiveness of stent-assisted coil embolization (SAC) in treating acutely ruptured aneurysms, the safety of stent placement in acute phase remains controversial because of concerns for stent-induced thromboembolism and hemorrhagic events attributable to the necessity of antiplatelet therapy. Therefore, we investigated the safety and efficacy of SAC with periprocedural dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) compared with the coiling-only technique to determine whether it is a promising treatment strategy for ruptured aneurysms. METHODS: We retrospectively evaluated 203 enrolled patients with acutely ruptured aneurysms, categorizing them into two groups: SAC and coiling-only groups. Comparative analyses between the two groups regarding angiographic results, clinical outcomes, and procedure-related complications were performed. A subgroup analysis of procedural complications was conducted on patients who did not receive chronic antithrombotic medications to alleviate their influence before hospitalization. RESULTS: 130 (64.0%) patients were treated using the coiling-only technique, whereas 73 (36.0%) underwent SAC. There was a trend to a higher complete obliteration rate (p = 0.061) and significantly lower recanalization rate (p = 0.030) at angiographic follow-up in the SAC group compared to the coiling-only group. Postprocedural cerebral infarction occurred less frequently in the SAC group (8.2%) than in the coiling-only group (17.7%), showing a significant difference (p = 0.044). Although the ventriculostomy-related hemorrhage rate was significantly higher in the SAC group than in the coiling-only group (26.2% vs. 9.3%, p = 0.031), the incidence of symptomatic ventriculostomy-related hemorrhage was comparable. Subgroup analysis excluding patients receiving chronic antithrombotic medications showed similar results. CONCLUSION: SAC with periprocedural DAPT could be a safe and effective treatment strategy for acutely ruptured aneurysms. Moreover, it might have a protective effect on postprocedural cerebral infarction without increasing the risk of symptomatic hemorrhagic complications.

Comparative effectiveness of angioembolization versus open surgery in patients with blunt splenic injury.

The effectiveness and safety of transcatheter splenic artery embolization (SAE) compared to those of open surgery in patients with blunt splenic injury (BSI) remain unclear. This retrospective cohort-matched study utilized data from the Japan Trauma Data Bank recorded between 2004 and 2019. Patients with BSI who underwent SAE or open surgery were selected. A propensity score matching analysis was used to balance the baseline covariates and compare outcomes, including all-cause in-hospital mortality and spleen salvage. From 361,706 patients recorded in the data source, this study included 2,192 patients with BSI who underwent SAE or open surgery. A propensity score matching analysis was used to extract 377 matched pairs of patients. The in-hospital mortality rates (SAE, 11.6% vs. open surgery, 11.2%, adjusted relative risk (aRR): 0.64; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.38-1.09, p = 0.10) were similar in both the groups. However, spleen salvage was significantly less achieved in the open surgery group than in the SAE group (SAE, 87.1% vs. open surgery, 32.1%; aRR: 2.84, 95%CI: 2.29-3.51, p < 0.001). Survival rates did not significantly differ between BSI patients undergoing SAE and those undergoing open surgery. Nonetheless, SAE was notably associated with a higher likelihood of successful spleen salvage.

Safety and efficacy of the novel Alpha stent for the treatment of intracranial wide-necked aneurysm.

The Alpha stent is an intracranial closed-cell stent with a unique mesh design to enhance wall apposition. It recently underwent structural modifications to facilitate easier stent deployment. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of stent-assisted coil embolization for unruptured intracranial aneurysms using the Alpha stent. Between January 2021 and November 2021, 35 adult patients with 35 unruptured intracranial aneurysms in the distal internal carotid artery were prospectively enrolled. For efficacy outcomes, magnetic resonance angiography at the 6-month follow-up was evaluated using the Raymond-Roy occlusion classification (RROC). The safety outcome evaluated the occurrence of symptomatic procedure-related neurological complications up to 6 months postoperatively. Technical success was achieved in 34/35 (97.1%). Six months postoperatively, aneurysm occlusion showed RROC I in 32/35 (91.4%) and RROC II in 3/35 (8.6%) patients. Procedure-related neurologic complications occurred in one patient (2.9%) who experienced hemiparesis due to acute lacunar infarction, which resulted in a 6-month mRS score of 1. The Alpha stent demonstrated excellent efficacy and safety outcomes in stent-assisted coil embolization of unruptured distal ICA aneurysms. The recent structural modifications allowed for easier stent delivery and deployment.Clinical trial registration number: KCT0005841; registration date: 28/01/2021.

[Middle meningeal artery embolization to treat acute epidural haematoma, case report and literature review]. / Akut epiduralis haematoma kezelése arteria meningea media embolisatióval, esetismertetés és irodalmi áttekintés.

The treatment of acute epidural haematoma is surgery as soon as possible, elimination of the source of bleeding and evacuation of the haematoma. In case of small epidural haematoma, strict neurological and radiological follow-up is necessary. In a significant percentage of cases, open surgery must also be performed within a few days. In case of small epidural haematomas, embolization of the middle meningeal artery is considered as an alternative solution. We review the literature on middle meningeal artery embolization and present our first treatment. Our case report is the first European report about an acute epidural haematoma which was treated by embolization of middle meningeal artery. Our case study is the first report in which a patient was treated with both open surgery and endovascular treatment for acute epidural haematoma within a year.

Renal artery pseudoaneurysm following robot assisted nephron sparing surgery: two case reports.

BACKGROUND: Renal artery pseudoaneurysm following partial nephrectomy is a rare entity, the incidence of this entity is more common following penetrating abdominal injuries, percutaneous renal interventions such as percutaneous nephrostomy(PCN) or Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). Although rare, renal artery pseudoaneurysm can be life threatening if not managed timely, they usually present within two weeks postoperatively with usual presenting complains being gross haematuria, flank pain and/or anaemia. CASE PRESENTATION: We report case of two female patients 34 and 57 year old respectively of South Asian ethnicity, presenting with renal artery pseudoaneurysm following left sided robot assisted nephron sparing surgery for interpolar masses presenting clinically with total, painless, gross haematuria with clots within fifteen days postoperatively and their successful treatment by digital subtraction angiography and coil embolization. CONCLUSION: Renal artery aneurysm is a rare fatal complication of minimally invasive nephron sparing surgery however considering the preoperative and intraoperative risk factors for its development and prompt suspicion at the outset can be life saving with coil embolization of the bleeding arterial aneurysm.

Safety and Outcomes of the Off-Label Treatment of Intracranial Aneurysms with Pipeline Embolization Device: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

BACKGROUND: Off-label use of pipeline embolization devices (PEDs) has been increasingly used for endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms. Numerous articles have highlighted the safety and effectiveness of PED placement from independent centers for both on- and off-label indications. There remains a paucity of information that considers overall safety and efficacy of off-label PED placement across the existing literature. Our objective is to systematically review the safety and occlusion outcomes of PED off-label use in intracranial aneurysm embolization. METHODS: A systematic search of PubMed and Embase was performed to identify studies on off-label use of PED. The selected studies provided relevant information, including study characteristics, patient demographics, clinical outcomes, peri-procedural complications, and long-term outcomes, which were subjected to meta-analysis. RESULTS: Twelve studies met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. There were 747 patients and 791 aneurysms included for analysis. Among the patient, 69.2% were female, with an age range of 16 to 80 years. The overall incidence rates for ischemic and hemorrhagic complications were 7% (95% CI: 4%-10%) and 2% (95% CI: 0%-4%), respectively. The mortality rate was 1% (95% CI: 0%-4%). The occlusion rates of aneurysm at initial follow up and 1 year follow-up were 82% (95% CI: 72%-91%) and 81% (95%CI: 75%-86%), respectively. Meta-regression analysis indicated no correlation between occlusion rate and factors such as age, sex, aneurysm size, location, morphology, rupture, or history of treatment. CONCLUSIONS: Despite variations in results observed in single-center studies, this meta-analysis provides evidence supporting the safety and efficacy of PED off-label use.

Use of the Tubridge flow diverter in the treatment of intracranial aneurysms: a single center experience.

To investigate the safety and effect of Tubridge flow diverter deployment for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms, 85 patients with intracranial aneurysms treated with the Tubridge flow diverter were retrospectively enrolled. The clinical data including the baseline data, aneurysm parameters before and after treatment, and follow-up outcomes were assessed. Among 85 patients, there were 35 (41.2%) males and 50 females (58.8%) aged 17-77 (mean 56.7 ± 11.1) years with 110 aneurysms. Five (5.9%) patients initially presented with subarachnoid hemorrhage from aneurysm rupture. The aneurysm size was 2-30 (mean 8.6) mm, and the aneurysm neck was 2-10.6 (mean 5.7 ± 2.3) mm. Ninety-three Tubridge stents were deployed. Twenty-five (29.4%) patients experienced adjunctive loose coiling. Blood flow was significantly reduced from entering the aneurysm after stent deployment. Periprocedural complications occurred in three (3.5%) patients, including in-stent thrombosis during embolization in one patient (1.2%), conjunctiva edema on the right in one patient (1.2%), and acute multiple cerebral infarctions in one patient (1.2%). Angiographic follow-up was conducted in 67 (78.8%) patients 3-36 (mean 15.3 ± 5.6) months later. In 11 (16.4% or 11/67) patients, blood flow still entered the aneurysm with the O'Kelly-Marotta (OKM) grade B in two (3.0%) patients and grade C in nine (13.4%), whereas complete occlusion (OKM grade D) was achieved in the other 56 (83.6% or 56/67) aneurysms. In-stent stenosis was present in five (7.5%) patients with approximately 25% stenosis in three (4.5%) patients and 50% in two (3.0%). In conclusion, the Tubridge flow diverter can be safely and efficiently applied in the treatment of small and large intracranial aneurysms, with a low periprocedural complication rate, a high occlusion degree, and a low in-stent stenosis rate at follow-up even though large aneurysms may necessitate a longer surgical time and adjunctive coiling.

Basilar artery perforator aneurysms: a comparison with non-perforator saccular aneurysms.

BACKGROUND: Basilar artery perforator aneurysms (BAPAs) are rare. There is no systematic description of their presentation, imaging, natural history and outcomes and how these compare to conventional non-perforator aneurysms. Thus, the authors in this study aimed to compare BAPAs to non-perforator aneurysms. METHODS: Cases were identified from a prospective neurovascular database, notes and imaging retrospectively reviewed and compared to a consecutive series of patients with non-perforator aneurysms. Blood volume on CT and vessel wall imaging (VWI) were compared to controls. RESULTS: 9/739 patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (aSAH) harboured BAPAs. Compared to 103 with aSAH from posterior circulation aneurysms, they were more likely to be male (6/9, p = 0.008), but of equal severity (4/9 poor grade, p = 0.736) and need of CSF drainage (5/9, p = 0.154). Blood volume was similar to controls (30.2 ml vs 26.7 ml, p = 0.716). 6/9 BAPAs were initially missed on CTA. VWI showed thick (2.9 mm ± 2.7) bright enhancement (stalk ratio 1.05 ± 0.12), similar to controls with ruptured aneurysms (0.95 ± 0.23, p = 0.551), and greater than unruptured aneurysms (0.43 ± 0.11, p < 0.001). All were initially managed conservatively. Six thrombosed spontaneously. Three grew and had difficult access with few good endovascular options and were treated through a subtemporal craniotomy without complication. None rebled. At 3 months, all presenting in poor grade were mRS 3-4 and those in good grade mRS 1-2. CONCLUSIONS: Despite their small size, BAPAs present with similar volume SAH, WFNS grade and hydrocephalus to other aneurysms. They are difficult to identify on CTA but enhance strikingly on VWI. The majority thrombosed. Initial conservative management reserving treatment for growth was associated with no rebleeds or complications.

Dual Layer vs Single Layer Woven EndoBridge Device in the Treatment of Intracranial Aneurysms: A Propensity Score-Matched Analysis.

BACKGROUND: The Woven EndoBridge (WEB) devices have been used for treating wide neck bifurcation aneurysms (WNBAs) with several generational enhancements to improve clinical outcomes. The original device dual-layer (WEB DL) was replaced by a single-layer (WEB SL) device in 2013. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness and safety of these devices in managing intracranial aneurysms. METHODS: A multicenter cohort study was conducted, and data from 1,289 patients with intracranial aneurysms treated with either the WEB SL or WEB DL devices were retrospectively analyzed. Propensity score matching was utilized to balance the baseline characteristics between the two groups. Outcomes assessed included immediate occlusion rate, complete occlusion at last follow-up, retreatment rate, device compaction, and aneurysmal rupture. RESULTS: Before propensity score matching, patients treated with the WEB SL had a significantly higher rate of complete occlusion at the last follow-up and a lower rate of retreatment. After matching, there was no significant difference in immediate occlusion rate, retreatment rate, or device compaction between the WEB SL and DL groups. However, the SL group maintained a higher rate of complete occlusion at the final follow-up. Regression analysis showed that SL was associated with higher rates of complete occlusion (OR: 0.19; CI: 0.04 to 0.8, p = 0.029) and lower rates of retreatment (OR: 0.12; CI: 0 to 4.12, p = 0.23). CONCLUSION: The WEB SL and DL devices demonstrated similar performances in immediate occlusion rates and retreatment requirements for intracranial aneurysms. The SL device showed a higher rate of complete occlusion at the final follow-up.

Efficacy of transcatheter arterial embolization in treating nonvariceal gastric remnant bleeding: a retrospective 5-year study.

BACKGROUND: Gastric remnant bleeding is a special case of upper gastrointestinal bleeding with certain specific disease characteristics, and some matters of transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) for hemostasis need attention. In this study, we aimed to explore the clinical use of TAE in patients with nonvariceal gastric remnant bleeding and identify the factors influencing the clinical efficacy of these interventions. METHODS: Data were retrospectively analyzed from 42 patients for whom angiography and embolization were performed but could not be treated endoscopically or had failed endoscopic management in our department between January 2018 and January 2023 due to nonvariceal gastric remnant bleeding. We investigated the relationship between the incidence of re-bleeding and the following variables: sex, age, pre-embolization gastroscopy/contrast-enhanced computer tomography, embolization method, aortography performance, use of endoscopic titanium clips, and the presence of collateral gastric-supplying arteries. RESULTS: Forty-two patients underwent 47 interventional embolizations. Of these, 16 were positive for angiographic findings, and 26 were negative. Based on arteriography results, different embolic agents were selected, and the technical success rate was 100%. The incidence of postoperative re-bleeding was 19.1% (9/47), and the overall clinical success rate was 81.0% (34/42). Logistic regression analysis of the relationship between the incidence of early re-bleeding following embolization and the proportion of collateral gastric supply arteries revealed an odds ratio of 10.000 (p = 0.014). CONCLUSIONS: Utilizing TAE for nonvariceal gastric remnant bleeding is safe and effective. The omission of collateral gastric-supplying arteries can lead to early re-bleeding following an intervention.

Dural arteriovenous fistulas are not observed to convert to a higher grade after partial embolization.

OBJECTIVE: Borden-Shucart type I dural arteriovenous fistulas (dAVFs) lack cortical venous drainage and occasionally necessitate intervention depending on patient symptoms. Conversion is the rare transformation of a low-grade dAVF to a higher grade. Factors associated with increased risk of dAVF conversion to a higher grade are poorly understood. The authors hypothesized that partial treatment of type I dAVFs is an independent risk factor for conversion. METHODS: The multicenter Consortium for Dural Arteriovenous Fistula Outcomes Research database was used to perform a retrospective analysis of all patients with type I dAVFs. RESULTS: Three hundred fifty-eight (33.2%) of 1077 patients had type I dAVFs. Of those 358 patients, 206 received endovascular treatment and 131 were not treated. Two (2.2%) of 91 patients receiving partial endovascular treatment for a low-grade dAVF experienced conversion to a higher grade, 2 (1.5%) of 131 who were not treated experienced conversion, and none (0%) of 115 patients who received complete endovascular treatment experienced dAVF conversion. The majority of converted dAVFs localized to the transverse-sigmoid sinus and all received embolization as part of their treatment. CONCLUSIONS: Partial treatment of type I dAVFs does not appear to be significantly associated with conversion to a higher grade.

Pre-emptive Aortic Side Branch Embolization during Endovascular Aneurysm Repair Using the Excluder Stent-Graft System: A Prospective Multicenter study.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of pre-emptive transcatheter arterial embolization (P-TAE) for aortic side branches (ASBs) to prevent Type 2 endoleaks (EL2) before endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) using the Excluder stent-graft system (Excluder). MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this prospective, multicenter study, 80 patients (mean age, 79.1 years [SD ± 6.7]; 85.0% were men; mean aneurysmal sac diameter, 48.4 mm [SD ± 7.4]) meeting the eligibility criteria were prospectively enrolled from 9 hospitals. Before EVAR, P-TAE was performed to embolize the patent ASBs originating from the abdominal aortic aneurysm. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) was performed at 1 month and 6 months after EVAR. The primary endpoint was EL2 incidence at 6 months, and the secondary endpoints were aneurysmal sac diameter changes at 6 and 12 months, P-TAE outcomes, adverse events related to P-TAE, reintervention, and aneurysm-related mortality. RESULTS: All patients successfully underwent P-TAE without serious. Coil embolization was successful in 81.6% of ASBs. EL2 incidence at 6 months was identified in 18 of 70 (25.7%) patients. Aneurysmal sac diameter shrinkage (≥5 mm) was observed in 30.0% of patients at 6 months and in 40.9% at 12 months. Only 1 patient required reintervention for EL2 within 1 year of EVAR; aneurysm-related deaths were not observed. CONCLUSIONS: P-TAE for ASBs before EVAR using Excluder is a safe and effective strategy. It aids in achieving early aneurysmal sac shrinkage and reduces EL2 reintervention at 1 year after EVAR.

Endovascular outcomes for anterior choroidal artery aneurysms: systematic review and meta-analysis.

BACKGROUND: Anterior choroidal artery (AchoA) aneurysms are relatively rare compared to other types of aneurysms. However, the occurrence of transient or permanent occlusion of the choroidal artery during endovascular or surgical treatment is an uncommon but potentially serious complication. In this study, we aim to investigate the safety and efficacy profile of endovascular treatment (EVT) for AchoA aneurysms. METHODS: The primary outcome of interest was angiographic and clinical outcomes. Secondary outcome variables transient and permanent ischemic complications, symptomatic choroidal artery occlusion and retreatment rates. A random-effects model was used to calculate prevalence rates and their corresponding 95 % confidence intervals (CI), and subgroup analyses were performed to assess the complication rates for Type 1(arterial type, directly arising from ICA) and Type 2(neck type, arising from AchoA branch)) AchoA aneurysms, ruptured vs non-ruptured and for flow diverter (FD) treatment versus coiling. RESULTS: Our study included 10 studies with 416 patients with 430 AchoA aneurysms. The overall good clinical outcome rate (mRS score 0-2) is 94.5 % with a retreatment rate of 2.0 %. A subgroup analysis showed no statistical difference between coiling(75.3 %) and flow diverter(80.9 %) treatment in terms of complete occlusion(p-value:0.62). Overall permanent complication rate is 1.4 % (p-value:0.54) and transient ischemic complications rate is 4.2 %(p-value:0.61). Symptomatic choroidal artery occlusion rate is 0.8 %(p-value:0.51)Type 2 AchoA aneurysms had a significantly higher complication rate of 9.8 % (p-value<0.05) compared to Type 1 aneurysms. Unruptured aneurysms have significantly better clinical outcomes than ruptured aneurysms(OR: 0.11; [0.02;0.5], p-value:<0.05) CONCLUSION: Endovascular treatment of AchoA aneurysms demonstrated positive clinical results, with low rates of retreatment and complications. Coiling and flow diverters proved similar outcomes in achieving aneurysm occlusion. Ruptured aneurysms have lower good clinical outcomes comparing to unruptured aneurysms. Type 2 AchoA aneurysms had a higher risk of complications compared to Type 1.
