Evaluation the results of the stenting on treatment of intracranial atherosclerosis at Bach Mai Hospital
Main Article Content
Abstract
Background & Aims: Evaluation the results of the stenting on treatment of Intracranial Atherosclerosis.
Methods: A prospective, non-controlled intervention study in intracranial artery stenosis patients with or without symptoms. The patients were indicated for treatment with stent placement from June 2017 to June 2020 at Radiology Center of Bach Mai Hospital.
Results: The study was performed on 18 patients, including 14 patients have acute celebral ischemic stroke with intracranial stenosis and 4 patients have simple intracranial stenosis. : The study was performed including 10 men (55.6%) and 8 women (44.4%). The mean age of patients was 66.28 ± 10.87 years. The rate of successful interventions for intracranial artery stenosis was 94.4%. There are 2 patients (11.11%) had acute or immediately post intervention. Symptoms and complications,
especially related to intracranial artery stenosis, were observed in 4 patients (22.22%). After an average of 3 months of follow-up, 1 patient died from perforation causing cerebral hemorrhage (5.56%) and 03 patients from stent-obstructive cerebral infarction after intervention (16.67%). Results of clinical recovery after stenting based on mRs scores with mortality, good recovery and slow recovery were 22.22%, 44.45% and 33.33%, respectively.
Conclusion: The results of stent treatment for intracranial artery stenosis in our research have a high success rate. The safety of the intervention and post treatment clinical recovery rate are high.
