Abstract：
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the parameters related to the high risk of preoperative seizures in infants (1 year or younger) with ruptured intracranial aneurysms. METHODS:Infants with ruptured intracranial aneurysms treated at our institution from January 2012 to January 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Seventeen similar cases of infant patients with seizures reported in published studies were reviewed. RESULTS:The mean age of the 7 infant patients treated at our institution was 4.1 ± 3.3 months (range, 28 days to 11 months), with 2 male and 5 female subjects. One patient (14.3%) had an internal carotid artery aneurysm with subarachnoid hemorrhage, and the remaining 6 patients (85.7%) had middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms in the distal arterial region with lobe hemorrhage. Five of the 7 infants (71.4%) had seizures, 4 of whom (4/5, 80.0%) had MCA distal arterial aneurysms with lobe hemorrhage. Management was successful for all patients with aneurysm clipping or resection surgery, and one patient experienced postoperative seizures. Of the 17 reviewed cases of infant patients with seizures, 10 patients (58.8%) exhibited the typical distal arterial aneurysm with lobe hemorrhaging, and 6 (60%) of them had aneurysms in MCA. CONCLUSIONS:Infant patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysms have a high risk of preoperative seizures. The typical radiologic finding of distal arterial aneurysm with lobe hemorrhage was frequently observed in the MCA, and it might be related to the high risk of preoperative seizures in this population. Microsurgical techniques effectively control postoperative seizures in infants with ruptured intracranial aneurysms.
