Unruptured intracranial aneurysms: incidence of rupture and risk factors.
UNLABELLED Backgrounds and Purpose- The authors evaluated the incidence of rupture of unruptured intracranial saccular aneurysm during observation. METHODS Between January 2003 and December 2006, a total of 419 patients with 529 unruptured intracranial saccular aneurysms were observed without treatment. The mean follow-up duration was 905.3 days. Aneurysm size was measured by 3-dimensional CT...
متن کاملRisk of rupture of unruptured cerebral aneurysms in elderly patients
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for rupture of unruptured cerebral aneurysms (UCAs) in elderly Japanese patients aged 70 years or older. METHODS The participants included all patients 70 years of age or older in 3 prospective studies in Japan (the Unruptured Cerebral Aneurysm Study of Japan [UCAS Japan], UCAS II, and the prospective study at the Jikei University ...
متن کاملMethodological quality and publication bias in observational studies on risk of rupture of unruptured intracranial aneurysms.
Methodological Quality and Publication Bias in Observational Studies on Risk of Rupture of Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms To the Editor: We would like to comment on some aspects of the very interesting updated meta-analysis on risk of rupture of unruptured intracranial aneurysms by Wermer and colleagues.1 First, with regard to the assessment of methodological quality of the included studies,...
متن کاملChanges of size and shape of small, unruptured intracranial aneurysms in repeated computed tomography angiography studies
INTRODUCTION Unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs) are frequently detected in noninvasive imaging studies such as computed tomography angiography (CTA) or magnetic resonance angiography (MRA). If small, UIAs are observed in these modalities in order to detect growth or shape change, but there are many questions about proper protocol of the follow-up. AIM To assess changes of small (< 7 mm)...
متن کاملUnruptured intracranial aneurysms--risk of rupture and risks of surgical intervention.
BACKGROUND The management of unruptured intracranial aneurysms requires knowledge of the natural history of these lesions and the risks of repairing them. METHODS A total of 2621 patients at 53 participating centers in the United States, Canada, and Europe were enrolled in the study, which had retrospective and prospective components. In the retrospective component, we assessed the natural hi...
