Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the application of side branch protection technique in interventional treatment of intracranial arteriosclerosis stenosis.Methods:We reviewed the patients who underwent interventional treatment of intracranial arteriosclerosis stenosis from November 2018 to May 2021 in Affiliated Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School, and analyzed the role of side branch protection technique in the prevention and treatment of complications. Relevant evaluation indicators including: (1) imaging: patency of blood flow in target vessels and branch vessels; (2) clinical presentation: ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) events within 72 hours and one month follow-up results.Results:A total of 9 patients underwent side branch protection during interventional treatment for intracranial arteriosclerosis stenosis, the blood flow of target vessels was improved obviously after operation, and the blood flow of the affected branches was not affected; no stroke or TIA events occurred in 72 hours after operation and one month follow up.Conclusions:Proper application of side branch protection technique can reduce the perioperative complications effectively during the interventional treatment for intracranial arteriosclerosis stenosis.
