Abstract:
Objective To observe the value of endovascular stenting(EVS)for treating transverse sinus stenosis(TSS)-related unilateral pulsatile tinnitus(PT).Methods Totally 42 patients with TSS-related unilateral PT who underwent EVS were retrospectively enrolled.The technical and clinical success rates of EVS for treating TSS-related unilateral PT were evaluated,and the complications and recurrence after treatment were observed.Results Among 42 cases,stent implantation was successfully performed in 40 cases,with the technical success rate of EVS was 95.24%(40/42).After treatment,the tinnitus symptoms in the above 40 cases improved significantly,the tinnitus handicap inventory(THI)score immediately decreased to mild PT,the trans-stenotic pressure gradient(TPG)decreased from 8.00(6.00,11.75)mmHg before treatment to 1.00(1.00,1.00)mmHg,and the clinical success rate of EVS was 100%(40/40).During the follow-up period,no serious complication was found.PT recurred 3 months after treatment in 1 case but spontaneously released 3 months later without any management.Conclusion EVS was safe and effective for treating TSS-related unilateral PT.
