ABSTRACT
Studies comparing different treatment methods in patients with middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms in different subgroups of onset symptoms are lacking. It is necessary to explore the safety and efficacy of open surgical treatment and endovascular therapy in patients with MCA aneurysms in a specific population. This study aimed to compare microsurgical clipping versus endovascular therapy regarding complication rates and outcomes in patients with MCA aneurysms presenting with neurological ischemic symptoms. This was a retrospective cohort study in which 9656 patients with intracranial aneurysms were screened between January 2014 and July 2022. Further, 130 eligible patients were enrolled. The primary outcome was the incidence of serious adverse events (SAEs) within 30 days of treatment, whereas secondary outcomes included postprocedural target vessel-related stroke, disabling stroke or death, mortality, and aneurysm occlusion rate. Among the 130 included patients, 45 were treated with endovascular therapy and 85 with microsurgical clipping. The primary outcome of the incidence of SAEs within 30 days of treatment was significantly higher in the clipping group [clipping 23.5%(20/85) vs endovascular 8.9%(4/45), adjusted OR4.05, 95% CI1.20-13.70; P = 0.024]. The incidence of any neurological complications related to the treatment was significantly higher in the clipping group [clipping32.9%(28/85) vs endovascular15.6%(7/45); adjusted OR3.49, 95%CI1.18-10.26; P = 0.023]. Postprocedural target vessel-related stroke, disabling stroke or death, mortality rate, and complete occlusion rate did not differ significantly between the two groups. Endovascular therapy seemed to be safer in treating patients with MCA aneurysms presenting with neurological ischemic symptoms compared with microsurgical clipping, with a significantly lower incidence of SAEs within 30 days of treatment and any neurological complications related to the treatment during follow-up.
