ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
The objective of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of open surgery (OS) and endovascular surgery (ES) for extracranial carotid aneurysm (ECCA) in the authors' centre.METHODS:
Fifty-seven consecutive patients who were diagnosed with ECCA and underwent intervention from January 2005 to July 2019 at Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, were reviewed retrospectively. Patient characteristics and surgical outcomes for OS and ES were analysed. ECCAs were divided into three morphological subgroups subgroup â , no severe tortuosity of the internal carotid artery (ICA) or common carotid artery (CCA) proximal to the aneurysm, tortuosity of the aneurysm and 1 cm of peri-aneurysmal carotid artery ≤ 90°; subgroup â ¡, severe ICA or CCA tortuosity proximal to the aneurysm, tortuosity of the aneurysm and 1 cm of peri-aneurysmal carotid artery ≤ 90°; subgroup â ¢, aneurysm tortuosity and 1 cm peri-aneurysmal carotid artery > 90°.RESULTS:
35 patients underwent OS, 20 patients underwent ES and 2 patients underwent OS after the failure of ES. Thirty-six cases were classified in subgroup â , 11 cases in subgroup â ¡, and 10 cases in subgroup â ¢. ES was achieved successfully in all 18 cases of subgroup I, but failed in three of four cases in subgroups â ¡ and â ¢. With a mean duration of 62.9 ± 44.5 months of follow up, five deaths were recorded in the OS group, two of which were caused by ipsilateral stroke and three were not neurologically related. There was no stroke or death in the ES group during follow up. One case of stroke and two cases of death occurred in symptomatic patients, while one case of stroke and three cases of death occurred in asymptomatic patients.CONCLUSION:
This series demonstrates that ES may be a safe and durable option for ECCA in subgroup â , while in subgroups â ¡ and â ¢, ES alone may be difficult to apply. A 30 day stroke rate around 5% existed in ECCAs with interventions, which should be considered before the intervention.Palabras clave
