Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the safety and effectiveness of Solitaire FR with intracranial support catheter for mechanical thrombectomy (SWIM) in the treatment of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST).Methods:Patients with progressive CVST treated with SWIM technology in the Neurology Department, Zhongshan Hospital of Chinese Medicine Affiliated to Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine from June 2019 to March 2022 (including 4 patients with intracranial hemorrhage) were retrospectively included. The venous sinus recanalization after procedure and during follow-up was observed. The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was used to evaluate the outcome at 3 months after procedure.Results:A total of 9 patients with progressive CVST were treated with SWIM technology, including 6 males with a median age of 37.0 years (range, 15-78). Immediately post-procedural angiography showed complete recanalization of the venous sinuses in 6 cases and partial recanalization in 3 cases. At 3 months after procedure, the mRS score showed that 3 cases was 0, 3 cases was 1, 2 cases was 2, and 1 case was 4.Conclusion:SWIM technology may be a safe and effective method in the treatment of progressive CVST.
