Delayed Symptomatic Thromboembolism After Unruptured Middle Cerebral Artery Aneurysm Embolization
نویسندگان
چکیده
Endovascular treatment has been increasingly performed for unruptured intracerebral aneurysms. However, thromboembolic complications, which develop mostly within 48 hours after the procedure, are the most common and major complications of endovascular treatment. We present a rare case of delayed symptomatic thromboembolism in an ischemic stroke patient who had undergone coil embolization for unruptured middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysm.

Intra-arterial and Intravenous Tirofiban Infusion for Thromboembolism during Endovascular Coil Embolization of Cerebral Aneurysm
OBJECTIVE Thromboembolism is the one of the most serious complications that can occur during endovascular coil embolization of cerebral aneurysm. We report on the effectiveness and safety of intra-arterial/intravenous (IA/IV) glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor (tirofiban) infusion for treating thromboembolism during endovascular coil embolization of cerebral aneurysm. METHODS We performed a retr...
متن کاملUnruptured Aneurysm at the Origin of the Duplicated Middle Cerebral Artery Treated by Coil Embolization: A Case Report
Aneurysm at the origin of a duplication of the middle cerebral artery (DMCA) is very rare, and only 29 treated cases have been reported. All of the cases were treated by direct surgery except a ruptured case treated by intentional partial coil embolization. We report the first unruptured case treated by coil embolization and review the previously published cases. Coil embolization can be altern...
متن کاملDelayed symptomatic vasospasm after clipping of an unruptured intracranial aneurysm: case report and literature review
Symptomatic vasospasm after clipping of unruptured intracranial aneurysms is a rare phenomenon. Herein, a case of delayed symptomatic vasospasm that developed after clipping of a middle cerebral artery aneurysm is reported. The experience in treatment is introduced, and relevant literature is reviewed to investigate the potential pathogenesis. A 50-year-old male was diagnosed with an unruptured...
متن کاملDelayed rupture of a basilar artery aneurysm treated with coils: case report and review of the literature.
Delayed rupture of a previously unruptured cerebral aneurysm after uneventful saccular coil packing is rare, particularly when the quality of aneurysm occlusion is appropriate (neck remnant or total occlusion). The present report describes the case of a 70-year-old woman with an incidentally detected, asymptomatic, small basilar tip non-thrombosed aneurysm who experienced rupture of the aneurys...
