Abstract:
Objective To analyze the efficacy and hemodynamic changes in patients with complex symptomatic middle cerebral artery stenosis after Solitaire AB stent implantation.Methods From June 2013 to June 2016,7 consecutive patients with complex symptomatic middle cerebral artery stenosis treated with Solitaire stents at the Department of Neurology,the Third People's Hospital of Hubei Province were enrolled retrospectively.The stenosis rate ≥70% was confirmed by digital subtraction angiography (DSA).Of the 7 patients,5 were male and 2 were female,with an average age of 70±8 years.The general data of the patients were documented,including clinical symptoms,modified Rankin scale(mRS)score,stenosis degree,vascular pathways LMA classification and Mori typing for stenosis,and postoperative residual stenosis or restenosis.The hemodynamic parameters at day 1,7,and 3 months before and after procedure were compared.Results All patients were successfully implanted with the Solitaire AB stents.(1) Of the 7 patients,the Mori type A of stenosis lesions was in 4 cases,B in 2 cases,and C in 1 case.The LMA typing of vascular approaches were Type Ⅲ in 3 cases,type Ⅱ in 4 cases.The preoperative stenosis rate was 80±7%,the residual stenosis rate was 24±13%,and there were no operation-related complications.No ischemic events occurred during the follow-up period.(2) Before stent implantation and at 1 d,7 d,and 3 months after procedure,the peak systolic velocity (PSV) were 297±41,144±34,145±27,and 143±40 cm/s,respectively,the end diastolic velocity (EDV) were 159±22,68±16,68±14,and 66±17 cm/s,respectively,and the pulse index (PI) were 0.67±0.06,0.80±0.08,0.80±0.07,and 0.82±0.06,respectively.PSV,EDV,and PI at 1 d,7 d,and 3 months were improved compared with before procedure (all P<0.05),There were no significant differences at all time points in the pairwise comparison PSV and EDV and PI at all time points after the procedure (all P>0.05).Conclusions Initial analysis showed that no procedure-related complications were observed in the treatment of vascular tortuosity and complex middle cerebral artery stenosis with the Solitaire stents.The short-term curative effect is exact;However,it still needs to be validated further.
