Cilostazol, a selective inhibitor...

...-necked intracranial aneurysms (WNAs) that preserves antegrade flow. We report our early multi-institutional experience with the Comaneci device in the USA. Method: We reviewed all patients with WNAs that were treated using the Comaneci device for coil remodeling of ruptured and unruptured aneurysms at 4...

...Atsushi Saito; Miki Fujimura; Hidenori Endo; Shunsuke Omodaka; Atsushi Kanoke; Kenichi Sato; Teiji Tominaga Background: Circumferential enhancement along the aneurysm wall (CEAW) by magnetic resonance (MR) vessel wall imaging has been reported to be a useful indicator for the biological activity...

... ( p = 0.9). Distal flow-related aneurysms ( p = 0.009) and altered consciousness with a Glasgow coma scale score of 3 ( p = 0.01) were independently associated with early rebleeding. Conclusions: Early rebleeding is a severe complication that can occur after BAVM-related hemorrhage. Distal flow...

Wood Background and Purpose: Cardiac myxomas can present with a myriad of neurological complications including stroke, cerebral aneurysm formation and metastatic...

...Robert M. Starke; Nohra Chalouhi; Dale Ding; David M. Hasan Background: Inflammation is a key element behind the pathophysiology of cerebral aneurysm formation and rupture. Aspirin is a potent inhibitor of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX), which plays a critical role in the expression of immune modulators...

... of this study was to examine predictors of outcome of poor-grade SAH after surgical obliteration of the aneurysm. Methods: The study was performed as a retrospective review of 283 patients with poor-grade SAH who underwent surgical obliteration of the aneurysm at multiple centers in Chugoku and Shikoku, Japan...

... such as age and hypertension were correlated with the angiographic findings. Results: Nine of the 62 patients (15%) exhibited angiographic abnormalities, including middle cerebral artery aneurysm (n = 1), arteriovenous malformations (n = 3), moyamoya disease (n = 2), and the moyamoya phenomenon associated...

...% of patients had high Hunt-Hess scores and in only 50% of cases a saccular aneurysm was identified. Conclusions: SAH presents in about 1% of SLE patients. Long duration of SLE and chronic damage scores might be associated risk factors. Subarachnoid hemorrhage Aneurysm Systemic lupus erythematosus...

... abnormality in which the main trunk of the MCA had a twig-like form. Both patients presented with intracranial hemorrhage. Results: In these 2 patients, the abnormality was seen before the genu of the MCA. They had an intracranial hemorrhage due to an associated aneurysm inside the twigs. The twig appeared...

...Amir R. Dehdashti; Bernadette Mermillod; Daniel A. Rufenacht; Alain Reverdin; Nicolas de Tribolet Background: Cerebral vasospasm is the most common cause of morbidity and mortality after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). This study is designed to determine whether the incidence...

...Dietmar Krex; Andreas Ziegler; Inke R. König; Hans K. Schackert; Gabriele Schackert Background: Vascular remodeling generated by reactive oxygen species contributes to aneurysm formation. The NADPH oxidase system is a major source of superoxide anion not only in phagocytes, but also in endothelial...

... the definite evaluation of intracranial arteries in most patients. TCCS is also useful for diagnosis and monitoring of vasospasm and detection of supratentorial hematomas (sensitivity 94%, specificity 95%) and aneurysms (sensitivity per patient 40–78%, specificity 90–91%), and may identify arteriovenous...

...C. Machiel Pleizier; Ynte M. Ruigrok; Gabriël J.E. Rinkel Background: Because age and the presence of atherosclerosis are risk factors for the presence of aneurysms, the presence of multiple aneurysms may also increase with age. Familial preponderance is another risk factor for the presence...

...Shuzo Okuno; Hideyuki Ohnishi Only 3 cases of aneurysm associated with the communicating artery between both distal posterior inferior cerebellar arteries (PICAs) have been reported in the literature. We present the 4th case of such an aneurysm arising from the communicating artery itself, which...
