Abstract:
Objective:To observe the effect of long-term follow-up of cerebral aneurysm embolization and to explore the related factors of aneurysm recurrence.Methods:A total of 142 cases of intracranial aneurysm rupture embolization patients treated in the Yuebei People′s Hospital from August 2000 to August 2013 were selected as the study objects. All of them underwent embolization treatment, and digital subtraction angiography (DSA), CT angiography (CTA) and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) were performed after surgery. The follow-up period was 10 years, and the long-term outcome was evaluated using the Stroke Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score. The results of immediate postoperative angiography and long-term follow-up in different embolization groups were analyzed. The risk factors of recurrence after ruptured cerebral aneurysm embolization were analyzed by single factor and independent risk factors were analyzed by multiple factor.Results:Of 142 patients (161 aneurysms), 106 were embolized by simple embolization and 55 were embolized by stent-assisted embolization. There was no significant difference in the results of immediate embolization between simple embolization and stent assisted embolization ( P>0.05). The proportion of giant aneurysms in the stent-assisted embolization group was higher than that in the simple embolization group ( P<0.05). Follow-up results showed that among the 142 patients, 106 had mRS score 0, 27 had mRS score 1, 5 had mRS score 2, and 4 had mRS score 4. The good clinical prognosis rate was 93.7%(133/142). Of the 161 aneurysms, 36 recurred, with a recurrence rate of 22.4%(36/161). Univariate analysis showed that aneurysm size, cervical tumor and embolization degree were risk factors for cerebral aneurysm recurrence (all P<0.05). The results of multi-factor analysis showed that aneurysm size was an independent risk factor for cerebral aneurysm recurrence ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The long-term follow-up after embolization of cerebral aneurysms is good, but cerebral aneurysms still have the possibility of recurrence. Aneurysm size is an independent risk factor for aneurysm recurrence. Timely detection of cerebrovascular changes can be treated in time to avoid cerebrovascular accidents.
