METHODS The retrospective study was carried out in the Department of Interventional Radiology, Rizhao People`s Hospital, Rizhao, China from January 2008 to December 2011. Twelve patien...
متن کاملEndovascular treatment of ruptured, peripheral cerebral aneurysms: parent artery occlusion with short Guglielmi detachable coils.
We report two cases of distal cerebral aneurysms that were treated by parent artery occlusion with short Guglielmi detachable coils (GDCs). One patient had a presumed mycotic aneurysm of the distal left posterior cerebral artery, and the other had a partially clipped aneurysm of the distal right anterior inferior cerebellar artery that had hemorrhaged. Short GDCs allow controlled, accurate occl...
متن کاملCoil embolization of posterior inferior cerebellar artery isolated aneurysms.
I read with great interest the article by Tikkakoski et al (1) describing their treatment of an isolated dissecting aneurysm of the left posterior inferior cerebellar artery with Guglielni detachable coils (GDCs). I would like to draw the authors’ attention to two additional articles relating to this subject. One article published in the Journal of Neurosurgery was a case report of an isolated ...
متن کاملEndovascular treatment of isolated dissecting aneurysm of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Isolated dissecting aneurysms of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA) carry a high risk of rebleeding with an associated increased mortality rate. Although rare, they present a therapeutic challenge. Surgical treatment carries a significant risk of neurologic complications, predominantly lower cranial nerve deficits because of the close relationship of the aneu...
متن کاملEndovascular Treatment for Isolated Dissecting Aneurysm of The Pericallosal Artery Presenting with Spontaneous Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: A Case Report
hemorrhage had been found in the posterior circulation such as vertebral artery in majority cases, but reported cases in the anterior circulation was rare. Those located in the anterior circulation usually manifest as ischemic stroke resulting from arterial stenosis or occlusion. However, spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage in these cases is rare. So, we report a case of dissecting aneurysm of ...
