Abstract:
:In spite of the availability of the new endovascular technique (GDC) to manage cerebral aneurysms, to date, the crucial question "which is the proper treatment in a given patient?" still remains unsettled. In order to check whether an answer is possible, we retrospectively reviewed a personal series of 192 consecutive patients with cerebral aneurysms (1993-1995). We found 164 patients who had been considered eligible for active aneurysm treatment. Treatment modality has been chosen case by case on the basis of patient conditions, and aneurysm size and location. Four groups of patients were identified: Group 1: 104 patients (63.4%) with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in whom the treatment of choice was surgery; Group 2: 27 SAH patients (16.4%) in whom the first choice was GDC; Group 3: 7 SAH patients (4.2%) who died before the scheduled treatment; Group 4: 26 patients (15%) with not ruptured aneurysm who had either surgery or GDC. Based on the results of this series (improvement of the overall results through the multidisciplinary approach), we have developed the guidelines to prospectively manage future cases of cerebral aneurysms with the purpose to rationalize the management, thus further improving the overall results.
