Unruptured intracranial aneurysms conservatively followed with serial CT angiography: could morphology and growth predict rupture?
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Despite several landmark studies, the natural history of unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIA) remains uncertain. Our aim was to identify or confirm factors predictive of rupture of UIA being observed conservatively with serial CT angiography (CTA) in a North American patient population. METHODS We performed a retrospective review of patients with UIA being followed w...
متن کاملDiagnosis of unruptured intracranial aneurysms: 3T MR angiography versus 64-channel multi-detector row CT angiography.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We compared 3-dimensional time-of-flight magnetic resonance angiography (3D TOF MRA) using a 3-tesla (T) MR unit with 64-channel multi-detector row computed tomographic angiography (64-MDCTA) for detection and characterization of angiographically proven unruptured intracranial aneurysms. METHODS Thirty-eight patients with 47 aneurysms and 8 patients without aneurysms un...
متن کاملUnruptured 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 کاملGrowth rate and rupture rate of unruptured intracranial aneurysms: a population approach
BACKGROUND Understanding aneurysm growth rate allows us to predict not only the current rupture risk, but also accumulated rupture risk in the future. However, determining growth rate of unruptured intracranial aneurysms often requires follow-up of patients for a long period of time so that significant growth can be observed and measured. We investigate a relationship between growth rate and ru...
متن کاملRisk Factors for the Rupture of Bifurcation Intracranial Aneurysms Using CT Angiography
PURPOSE To investigate the clinical and morphological characteristics in relation to risk of bifurcation intracranial aneurysm rupture. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data from 202 consecutive patients with 219 bifurcation aneurysms (129 ruptured and 90 unruptured) managed at the authors' facility between August 2011 and July 2014 were retrospectively reviewed. Based on their clinical records and CT a...
