Solitaire Stent Permanent Implantation As an Effective Rescue Treatment for Emergency Large Artery Occlusion
World neurosurgery(2019)
摘要
BACKGROUND: In this study, we present our experiences on the feasibility of rescue permanent Solitaire stent placement for failed mechanical thrombectomy (MT) and our protocol to avoid ineffective stent placement. METHODS: We retrospectively evaluated the data for consecutive patients admitted into the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University and 2 collaboration hospitals from August 2014 to May 2018 for emergency large artery occlusion. The baseline clinical characteristics and radiologic assessment, interventional data, clinical outcome, and angiographic follow-up data were assessed. Notably, we introduced our protocol for antegrade flow assessment before Solitaire stent detachment to ensure an effective stent implantation. RESULTS: Thirty-nine patients (mean age, 68.1 years, mean preprocedural National Institute of Health Scale Score, 22.1) were included, in which 34 patients had anterior circulation large artery occlusion and 5 patients had posterior circulation large artery occlusion. The MT attempts ranged from 1-5 (3.6 on average). The mean onset-to-puncture time was 4.8 hours (ranging from 2.1-7.8 hours) and the mean procedure time was 87.4 minutes (ranging from 32-124 minutes). Modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction 2b-3 reperfusions were noted in all cases. The immediate, average postprocedure stenosis rate was 25.3%, and the average stenosis rate at the 3-month angiographic follow-up was 34.7% (data from 15 patients). Three patients died. Nineteen (48.7%) patients had good outcome (modified Rankin Scale, mRS <= 2) at the 3-month follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: Permanent Solitaire stent placement might be a feasible therapy for patients with MT-failed emergency large artery occlusion. For a successful revascularization, careful antegrade flow assessment before stent detachment is critical.
