Abstract:
Objective To investigate the feasibility and effectiveness of internal jugular vein (IJV) intervention therapy in patients with cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST)with color Doppler ultrasound (CDU). Methods Twelve patients with CVST diagnosed by CDU and the 13 IJV lesions (localized luminal stenosis in 9 cases,venous long-segment slender in 2 cases,and right IJV localized luminal stenosis,and long-segment slender on the left in 1 case)confirmed by magnetic resonance venography (MRV)and/ or digital subtraction angiography (DSA)were enrolled retrospectively. CDU examinations were used at 1 week before and after IJV intervention therapy,6 months,1 year,and 2 years. The changes of the maximum diameter and the maximum velocity (V max )of the IJV were compared. The success rate and the long-term efficacy of the intervention therapy were analyzed. Results One week after treatment,the CDU examinations showed that the diameter of IJV stenosis in 13 IJV were increased significantly compared with those before procedure (4. 7 ± 2. 1 mm vs. 2. 3 ± 1. 3 mm;t = 5. 325,P < 0. 01). The velocity of blood flow of IJV was improved compared with before procedure (localized stenosis in 10 IJV[50 ± 15 cm/ s vs. 87 ± 24 cm/ s];t = 6. 285,P < 0. 01). Six of the 12 patients were followed up for a mean of 18 ± 7 months, two patients had restenosis after balloon dilatation. Conclusions For CVST patients with IJV lesions,the preliminary observation has indicated that IJV intervention therapy may improve the lesion lumen and hemodynamics. However,the intervention therapy,especially after balloon dilatation,the incidence of restenosis is higher. CDU can be used as an objective evaluation means for the long-term efficacy of IJV stenosis.
