5. Treatment of intracranial arterial lesions with covered stents
Chinese Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2006;3(9):388-394
Objective: We present our preliminary experience on the treatment of intracranial arterial lesions with covered stent in a series of patients. Methods: 20 patients have been treated by using Jostent coronary covered stent deployed in the parent artery across the lesions, which included aneurysms, iatrogenic or traumatic arterial injury, and traumatic carotid-cavernous fistula (TCCF). The profile of stent was determinded with the diameter of parent artery and the length of lesion. 5 cases of intradural vertebral aneurysms, 7 internal carotid artery (ICA) aneurysms (1 petrous, 2 cavernous, 2 ophthalmic, 2 supracliniodal segment), 1 iatrogenic ICA injury, 3 traumatic ICA aneurysms, 3 traumatic carotid cavernous fistula and 1 ICA cavernous segment stenosis with spontanous CCF were treated. 21 Jostent covered stent had been used. Combination of bare stent and covered stent were used in 3 cases. Results: Technical success were achieved in 17 cases. Each case had one lesion. Lesions were excluded from circulation in 14 cases. There were 3 cases with lesion reminants or endoleakage just after treatment, but disappeared soon in the follow-up angiography. No complication was found in successful cases. Covered stent deployment were failed in 3 cases. One had transient slight paraplegia. There was no severe complication or death. Conclusion: Excluding the lesion from circulation with covered stent has been proved to be an effective reconstructive treatment of intracranial arterial lesions. Further research and development are needed to make the indication even broader.

Objective To investigate the expression of aquaporin-3 (AQP3) in tongue tissues of rats with experimental severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and regulating effects of emodin. Methods Rat models with SAP were established by injecting 5% sodium taurocholate retrogradely into gallbladder and pancreas. SD male rats were randomly divided into sham-operation group, model group, and emodin group. After model establishment, rats in the emodin group received gavage with emodin 20 mg/kg each day, while rats in the model group and sham-operation group received gavage with normal saline. The mental state, thick greasy tongue fur and mortality of rats were observed every day after model establishment, and 5 days later, protein and genetic expression of AQP3 were detected by Western blot and RT-PCR. Results Compared with the model group, the mortality and the thick greasy tongue fur significantly decreased, the protein and genetic expression of AQP3 significantly decreased in the emodin group (P<0.05). On the 5th day, 11 rats in the model group survived, and 5 rats had thick greasy tongue fur. Compared with the sham-operation group, the protein and genetic expression of AQP3 in the model group were higher (P<0.05). Conclusion Emodin can improve the severity of SAP and decrease the incidence of thick greasy tongue fur significantly by reducing the protein and genetic expression of AQP3.
