Abstract:
Objective To determine the methods and results of treating traumatic pseudoaneurysms in siphon segment of internal carotid artery(ICA)by interventional therapy.Methods Twelve cases of traumatic pseudoaneurysms in siphon segment of internal carotid artery were treated.The collateral circulation of Willis circle was observed after DSA.Different methods of treatment were applied according to the collateral circulation of Willis circle.Ten cases were treated by occlusion of ICA completely,1 case was embolized by guglielmi detachable coil(GDC)only.Results Nine of 12 treated by occlusion of ICA were cured.In the 3 cases who had poor collateral of Willis circle,one was cured by GDC embolization alone;one died 48 hours later after ICA occlusion though his consciousness and the activity of extremities were normal during the temporary balloon test occlusion(BTO)of ICA.One died during the training to improve the collateral of the Willis circle.Conclusion ICA embolization is feasible for treatment of traumatic pseudoaneurysms in siphon segment of internal carotid artery after evaluating the collateral circulation of Willis circle.
