Intracranial aneurysms: individualising the risk of rupture.
The decision of what to do with asymptomatic unruptured intracranial aneurysms is a fairly new problem. Although these aneurysms have been known to exist for centuries through autopsies and for several decades through catheter angiography, their true prevalence did not begin to emerge until the use of non-invasive angiograms became widespread in the recent past. Now we know that nearly 3% of th...
متن کاملHemodynamic Differences in Intracranial Aneurysms before and after Rupture.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Rupture risk of intracranial aneurysms may depend on hemodynamic characteristics. This has been assessed by comparing hemodynamic data of ruptured and unruptured aneurysms. However, aneurysm geometry may change before, during, or just after rupture; this difference causes potential changes in hemodynamics. We assessed changes in hemodynamics in a series of intracranial an...
متن کاملPrevalence and Risk of Rupture of Intracranial Aneurysms
Background and Purpose—The estimates on the prevalence and the risk of rupture of intracranial saccular aneurysms vary widely between studies. We conducted a systematic review on prevalence and risk of rupture of intracranial aneurysms and classified the data according to study design, study population, and aneurysm characteristics. Methods—We searched for studies published between 1955 and 199...
متن کاملUnruptured intracranial aneurysms: incidence of rupture and risk factors.
UNLABELLED Backgrounds and Purpose- The authors evaluated the incidence of rupture of unruptured intracranial saccular aneurysm during observation. METHODS Between January 2003 and December 2006, a total of 419 patients with 529 unruptured intracranial saccular aneurysms were observed without treatment. The mean follow-up duration was 905.3 days. Aneurysm size was measured by 3-dimensional CT...
متن کاملFactors Influencing Intraoperative Rupture of Intracranial Aneurysms.
AIM The study deals with intraoperative rupture of intracranial aneurysms (IOR) during microsurgery, analyzing factors that may be connected with IOR. MATERIAL AND METHODS During the three-year period (2006-2008), 934 patients were operated for aneurysms at the Institute of Neurosurgery, CCS, Belgrade. In total, 536 patients were observed. RESULTS IOR occurred in 14.7%. Male gender, seizure...
