Abstract:
OBJECTIVES:To explore clinical features and compare of the difference between conservative treatment and surgical treatmentin prognosis of intracranial aneurysms associated with moyamoya disease (MMD). METHODS:104 patients with MMD a ssociated with intracranial aneurysms diagnosed by digital subtraction angiography (DSA) or computed tomography angiography (CTA) were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS:All patients of MMD with intracranial aneurysms had 129 aneurysms distributed at different sites. The distribution of the aneurysms was as follows: 28(21.71%) anterior communicating artery aneurysms, 21(16.28%) basilar artery aneurysms, 19(14.73%) middle cerebral artery aneurysms, 17(13.18%) posterior cerebral artery aneurysms, 12(9.30%)internal carotid artery aneurysms, 11(8.53%) posterior communicating artery aneurysms, 10(7.75%) anterior cerebral artery aneurysms, 5(3.88%) anterior choroidal artery aneurysms, 2(1.55%) moyamoya vessel aneurysms, and 4(3.1%) other location aneurysms. 82 cases (78.85%) had one aneurysm, and 21 cases (20.19%) had 2 or more aneurysms. 64 cases were treated surgically, and 40 cases were treated conservatively. 57 of 81 cases (70.37%) had a good outcome, 2 cases (2.47%) were in paralyzed, and 22 cases were died. The mortality rate was (27.16%). Death occurred in 16 (47.06%) of 34 patients with conservative treatment, and 6(12.77%) of 47 patients with surgical treatment. 7 cases (8.64%) had twice cerebral hemorrhage, and one case (1.23%) had third cerebral hemorrhage in the follow-up period. There were 5 deaths, two good outcomes, and one coma among 8 cases experienced re-hemorrhage. CONCLUSION:Compared with conservative treatment, positive surgical treatment showed clinical significance for preventing cerebral hemorrhage and reducing mortality of MMD with intracranial aneurysms. ABBREVIATIONS:MMD: moyamoya disease; DSA: digital subtraction angiography; CTA: computed tomography angiography.
