Abstract:
Objective:To analyze assessment value of the hemodynamics of posterior cerebral artery(PCA)detected by transcranial color-coded Doppler(TCCD)ultrasound for occurring cerebral infarction in patients with fetal-type posterior cerebral artery(FTP).Methods:A total of 300 patients with suspected cerebrovascular disease admitted to the Department of Neurology of The Second Hospital of Harbin City from January,2020 to December 31,2023 were retrospectively selected.In these patients,7 cases with cerebral hemorrhage(without complication of cerebral infarction)did not be included.According to the clinical manifestations and the results of imaging examination,293 patients were divided into transient ischemic attack(TIA)group(176 cases)and acute ischemic stroke(AIS)group(117 cases).The differences in FTP detection between TCCD examination and magnetic resonance angiography(MRA)were compared.The differences in PCA hemodynamics among TIA,anterior circulation infarction,posterior circulation infarction and lacunar infarction were compared.The proportions of patients with TIA,anterior circulation infarction,posterior circulation infarction and lacunar infarction combined with FTP were also compared,and the PCA hemodynamics of patients with posterior circulation infarction of bilateral cFTP,unilateral cFTP,bilateral pFTP,unilateral pFTP and nFTP were compared.The proportions of patients with transient ischemic attack(TIA)who occurring AIS at bilateral cFTP,unilateral cFTP,bilateral pFTP,unilateral pFTP and nFTP in short term were compared.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve and area under curve(AUC)were used to assess the predictive value of abnormal PCA hemodynamics of TIA patients,who combined with and/or without FTP,occurred AIS in short term.Results:MRA revealed that a total of 89 patients combined with FTP in 293 patients,of which 14 cases were bilateral cFTP(accounting for 15.73%),and 25 cases were unilateral cFTP(accounting for 28.09%),and 8 cases were bilateral pFTP(accounting for 8.99%),and 42 cases were unilateral pFTP(accounting for 4 7.19%).According to TCCD testing,it was found that a total of 89 cases combined with FTP in 293 patients,of which 16 cases were bilateral cFTP(accounting for 17.98%),and 23 cases were unilateral cFTP(accounting for 25.84%),and 8 cases were bilateral pFTP(accounting for 8.99%),and 42 cases were unilateral pFTP(accounting for 47.19%).There was favorable consistency between TCCD and MRA(Kappa=0.899).Under TCCD,the blood flow velocity(Vp)and resistance index(RI)of systolic stage of PCA in patients with posterior circulation infarction were significantly higher than those in patients with TIA,anterior circulation infarction,and lacunar cerebral infarction(F=15.392,9.032,P<0.05),respectively.Patients with posterior circulation infarction were more likely to occur bilateral cFTP.The Vp,Vm and Vd of patients with bilateral cFTP were significantly higher than those of patients with bilateral pFTP,unilateral pFTP and non-FTP(F=14.932,8.884,6.054,P<0.05),respectively.The proportion of occurring AIS in TIA patients with bilateral cFTP was significantly higher than that in TIA patients with unilateral cFTP,bilateral pFTP,unilateral pFTP and nFTP(Z=6.883,7.568,6.253,6.772,P<0.05),and the proportions of occurring AIS in TIA patients with unilateral cFTP,bilateral pFTP and unilateral pFTP were significantly higher than that in TIA patients with nFTP(Z=5.986,6.877,6.856,P<0.05),respectively.A total of 45 cases(accounting for 25.57%)of 176 TIA patients occurred AAIS within 3 months after they discharged.The AUC value of predictive value of Vp for occurring AIS in 45 TIA patients with FTP was 0.818,which was significantly higher than that(AUC=0.589)for occurring AIS in 131 TIA patients with non-FTP.Conclusion:Patients with posterior circulation cerebral infarction are prone to occur PCA hemodynamic abnormalities.In patients with posterior circulation infarction,the PCA blood flow velocity in patients with bilateral cFTP significantly accelerates.PCA hemodynamic ultrasound examination has a certain of predictive value for occurring AIS in short term in TIA patients who combine with FTP.
