Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the closed-cell stents in the treatment of carotid pseudo-occlusion.Methods From Jan 2014 to Dec 2017,clinical data of 34 patients undergoing carotid artery recanalization with closed-cell stents for pseudo-occlusion were analyzed retrospectively.Results The technical success rate was 97.1% (33/34) and the intracranial blood supply improved in 91.2% patients (31/34).The 30-day perioperative ipsilateral symptomatic ischemic stroke rate was 2.9% (1/34).All the patients were discharged with no peri-operative hyperperfusion syndrome,myocardial infarction.The average follow-up time was 15.2 ±7.6 months.The incidence of carotid artery restenosis was 17.6%.There was no stroke-related mortality.Ultrasound or CTA found luminal dilatation of the distal internal carotid artery.The diameter increased from (2.5 ±0.5) mm to (4.1 ±0.6) mm after intervention (P <0.001).Conclusion Closed-cell stents for carotid artery pseudo-occlusion is safe and effective,decreasing cerebral stroke and carotid occlusion.
