[Study on the relationship between preoperative evaluation, operation and prognosis of microvascular decompression for the treatment of hemifacial spasm].

Objective: To investigate the relationship between preoperative evaluation, surgery and prognosis of microvascular decompression (MVD) for the treatment of hemifacial spasm (HFS). Methods: The clinical data of 128 HFS patients treated with MVD in the department of neurosurgery of Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province were retrospectively analyzed. According to the SMC grading system, the patients were divided into general spasm group and severe spasm group, and the clinical characteristics, offending vessel, prognosis and surgical complications of the two groups were compared. Results: In the general spasm group,the age at MVD was (48.6±10.6) years, the disease duration was (4.2±3.3) years;while in the severe spasm group,the age at MVD was (51.8±9.9) years, the disease duration was (8.1±4.5) years;the differences of age and disease duration between the two groups were statistically significant (P<0.05).In the general spasm group, there were 41 cases in which the offending vessel were AICA, 21 cases were PICA, 1 case was VA, 63 cases were single offending vessel, and 7 cases were multiple offending vessels. In the severe spasm group, there were 29 cases in which the offending vessel were AICA, 13 cases were PICA, 2 cases were VA, the total of 44 cases were single offending vessel and 14 cases were multiple offending vessels.There was a significant difference in the proportion of multiple offending vessels in the two groups, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).Patients in the two groups were followed up for 12 to 32 months after surgery, and the difference in effective rate and recurrence rate was not statistically significant (P>0.05).Some kinds of postoperative complications were different between the two groups, the incidence of postoperative delayed facial paralysis was statistically significant (P<0.05), and the other complications were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusion: Compared with the general spasm group, the patients in the severe spasm group were older, with longer disease duration, higher probability of multiple offending vessels and higher incidence of postoperative delayed facial paralysis. Therefore, preoperative SMC grading is helpful for the evaluation and prediction of intraoperative and postoperative conditions, which is worthy of wide clinical application.

Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy of superficial temporal artery -middle cerebral artery combined with encephalo-duro-arterio-myo-synangiosis (STA-MCA+EDAMS) and encephalo-duro-arterio-myo-synangiosis (EDAMS) in the treatment of adult moyamoya disease. Methods: The clinical data of 47 adult patients with moyamoya disease who received vascular reconstruction in the Department of Neurosurgery of Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province from January 2014 to January 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 21 patients received EDAMS alone (EDAMS group, 14 patients with hemorrhagic moyamoya disease, 7 patients with ischemic moyamoya disease), 26 patients received STA-MCA combined with EDAMS (STA-MCA+EDAMS group, 17 patients with hemorrhagic moyamoya disease, 9 patients with ischemic moyamoya disease). Cerebral hemodynamics at 1 day before surgery and 3 and 6 months after surgery were compared. The clinical efficacy and postoperative complications of the two methods were compared at 3 and 6 months postoperatively in hemorrhagic and ischemic types. Results: For hemorrhagic moyamoya disease, the remission rate (94.1%) at 6 months after surgery in the STA-MCA + EDAMS group was higher than that in the EDAMS group (57.1%), and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The CBF and CBV in the STA-MCA+EDAMS group were higher than those in the EDAMS group at 3 and 6 months after operation, and the MTT and TPP were lower than those in the EDAMS group, but there was no significant difference between the two groups (all P>0.05). For hemorrhagic moyamoya disease and ischemic moyamoya disease, the total incidence of postoperative complications of the two surgical methods was different, but the difference was not statistically significant (both P>0.05). Conclusion: Superficial temporal artery -middle cerebral artery combined with encephalo-duro- arterio-myo-synangiosis (STA-MCA+EDAMS) and encephalo-duro-arterio-myo-synangiosis (EDAMS) can significantly improve neurological function and cerebral hemodynamics in adult moyamoya disease patients with high safety.

[Statistical parametric mapping analysis of 18F-FDG PET in Parkinson's disease with mild cognitive impairment].

Objective: To investigate the characteristics of cerebral metabolism associated with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) Parkinson's disease (PD), cognitive normal PD and normal control to find a PET biomarker for the diagnose and estimate of PD-MCI. Methods: Forty-seven patients diagnosed with PD (included 15 with mild cognitive impairment) and 20 control subjects were enrolled. All the subjects were evaluated with FDG-PET and clinical scale. The statistical parametric mapping (SPM) were analyzed to determine metabolic patterns that may be useful in differentiating between the three groups. Results: SPM analysis showed that significant hypometabolism were observed in both side of front lobe, parietal lobe, left temporal lobe and left occipital lobe; in the contrast, the relative hypermetabolism had been observed in the cerebellum, vermis, hippocampus and supplement motor area (SMA) in patients with PD-MCI. PD without MCI showed hypometabolism in both side of front lob, caudate and putamen. PD-MCI showed that the significant hypermetabolism were in the insular and cerebellum while hypometabolism were in the both side of occipital compared to PD without MCI. Conclusion: A voxel-by-voxel based SPM method i. e. SPM8 analysis by PET scan is an effective way to analysis the FDG uptake pattern of PD patients. The hypermetabolism in the insula and cerebellum and hypometabolism in the both side of occipital may be a biomarker for make a diagnosis of PD-MCI.

The revascularization of the ischemic cerebral tissue was obtained through the PWI.The postoperative complications included 1 case of subdural hematoma, 3 cases of postoperative temporary neurological deficits. Conclusion: The burr-hole operation combined with dural inversion and temporalis-periosteal synangiosis was effective, the MR perfusion imaging could assessment the effect exactly, there was no significant difference of neovascularization whether or not opening the arachnoid.

[Incidence and risk factors of recurrence after endovascular treatment of vertebrobasilar dissecting aneurysms].

Objective: To evaluate the incidence and risk factors of recurrence after endovascular treatment of vertebrobasilar dissecting aneurysms (VBDAs). Methods: Retrospective analysis was used for the clinical information of 40 cases of vertebrobasilar dissecting aneurysms treated with endovascular methods in our department between January 2007 and December 2015.According to whether recurrence occurred, the patients were divided into recurrence group (10 patients) and non-recurrence group (30 patients). The data of the patients' age, sex, hypertension history, smoking history, aneurismal size, presenting symptoms, degree of embolization, GCS scores, aneurismal localization and treatment methods were analyzed to evaluate the risk factors for recurrence after endovascular treatment. Results: There were 40 patients performed long-term angiographic follow-up.The recurrence rate after endovascular treatment was 25.0% (10/40) in the present study, and they all occurred in reconstructive group.Among the patients who underwent stent-assisted coil embolization, recurrence in aneurismal body occurred in 6 patients, and recurrence in aneurismal neck 3 cases. In these cases, 7 recurrences occurred with complete embolization, and 2 recurrences occurred with partial embolization.Recurrence occurred in 1 case that underwent single stent placement.The incidence of recurrence in reconstructive group was higher than that in destructive group (33.3% vs 0.0) with significant difference. Conclusions: The recurrence rate was high in VBDAs treated with endovascular methods.The only independent risk factor for recurrence was reconstructive methods and that suggests the necessity of long-term angiographic follow-up.

[Efficacy of combination of ATRA, ATO and anthracyclines induction therapy in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia].

Objective: To explore the efficacies of regimens of three-drug induction therapy (ATRA+ATO+anthracyclines) versus two-drug induction therapy (ATRA+ATO) in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). Methods: Of 184 patients diagnosed with APL from January 2009 to March 2016, 58 patients underwent three-drug induction therapy, while the rest were treated with two-drug induction therapy. Three-drug induction therapy was of ATRA (20 mg·m(-2)·d(-1), d(1-28)) + ATO (0.16 mg·kg(-1)·d(-1), d(1-28)) + Idarubicin (8 mg·m(-2)·d(-1), d(3-5)) /daunorubicin (40 mg·m(-2)·d(-1), d(3-5)) , while two-drug induction therapy ATRA+ATO with the same doses and methods as above. Of 184 cases, 69 cases accompanied with WBC counts>10×10(9)/L, 115 cases with WBC counts≤10×10(9)/L at onset. Results: ①Short-term efficacy: After one cycle induction therapy, the rates of hematologic remission, genetic remission, molecular remission and induced differentiation syndrome (DS) in three-drug regimen group were 98.3%, 87.9%, 72.4% and 0 respectively, while those in two-drug regimen group were 87.3%, 65.9%, 51.6% and 12.7% respectively. In patients with WBC >10×10(9)/L, DS rate and early mortality in three-drug regimen group were lower than in two-drug regimen group (0 vs 15.6%, 4.2% vs 15.6%, respectively). In patients with WBC≤10×10(9)/L, DS rate in three-drug regimen group was also lower than in two-drug regimen group (0 vs 12.3%) , but there were no statistical differences in terms of relapse and early mortality. ② Long-term efficacy: The relapse rate, overall survival (OS) and disease free survival (DFS) in three-drug regimen group were 0, 98.5%, 96.6% respectively, while those in two-drug regimen group were 8.6%, 86.5% and 84.1% respectively; the advantages of three-drug over two-drug regimen, especially in cases of WBC >10×10(9)/L were observed. ③ Side effects: the incidences of gastrointestinal reaction, liver dysfunction, myocardial damage and headache in three-drug regimen group hardly increased. Conclusion: The efficacies of three-drug induction therapy were superior to two-drug one.

[Endovascular management and classification of the dissecting aneurysms of the vertebral artery].

Objective: To summarize the classifications and optimize endovascular treatment of the dissecting aneurysms of the vertebral artery (DAVA). Methods: The clinical information of 39 cases of DAVA treated with endovascular methods in our department between January 2007 and September 2016 were analyzed retrospectively.According to the location of the aneurysm in relation to the posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA), the aneurysms were classified into three types: type pre-PICA, located proximally to the PICA; type in-PICA, located at the PICA origin; and type post-PICA located distally to the PICA.According to the hemodynamics of the contralateral vertebral artery, the aneurysms were classified into two types: compensatory type: including well-developed contralateral vertebral arteries and a guaranteed posterior circulation blood supply following the occlusion of the ipsilateral vertebral artery; and non-compensatory type: including contralateral vertebral arteries that were hypoplastic and provided an inadequate posterior circulation blood supply following ipsilateral vertebral artery occlusion.The choices of reconstructive or destructive methods were made according to the above-mentioned classification, combined with the consideration of morphological features and onset styles.Reconstructive surgery included stent-assisted coil embolization and the placement of multiple overlapping stents (6 patients). Destructive surgery referred to coil embolization combined with proximal coil trapping of the dissected segment of the parent artery (CE+ PT). Results: A total of 16 patients were type pre-PICA, of which 9 patients were compensatory type and 7 were non-compensatory type.In compensatory type, 4 underwent coil embolization combined with proximal coil trapping of the dissected segment of the parent artery (CE+ PT) and 5 underwent stent-assisted coil embolization (stent/coils). In non-compensatory type, 6 underwent stent/coils and 1 underwent multiple overlapping stents placement (stents). Nine patients were type in-PICA, of which 5 patients were compensatory type and 4 were non-compensatory type. In compensatory type, all patients underwent stent/coils.In non-compensatory type, 2 underwent stent/coils and 2 underwent multiple overlapping stents placement (stents). Fourteen patients were type post-PICA, of which 8 patients were compensatory type and 6 were non-compensatory type.In compensatory type, 6 underwent CE+ PT, 1 underwent stent/coils and 1 underwent stents. In non-compensatory type, 4 underwent stent/coils and 2 underwent stents.Totally, there were 10 underwent CE+ PT, 23 underwent stent/coils and 6 underwent stents.The incidence of perioperative complications was 7.7% (3/39), and the death rate associated with these complications was 5.1% (2/39). Of the 36 patients followed with long-term repeated angiographic examinations, 28(77.8%) patients had complete occlusion.Clinical outcome evaluations were performed using the Modified Rankin Scale and resulted in the following scores: 0-2 for 36 patients, 3-6 for 3 patients. Conclusions: The classifications based on location, hemodynamics, morphological features and onset styles of the DAVA is safe and effective for the choice of the endovascular methods.

[Clinical analysis of endovascular strategies in the treatment of vertebrobasilar dissecting aneurysms].

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of endovascular strategies for vertebrobasilar dissecting aneurysm (VBDA) and analyze advantages and disadvantages of different endovascular methods for the treatment of VBDA through long-term follow-up. Methods: Retrospectively analyzing was used for the clinical information of 45 cases of vertebrobasilar dissecting aneurysms treated with endovascular methods in our department from January 2007 to December 2015. The treatment modalities were classified into reconstructive surgery and destructive surgery that were based on parent artery preservation. Reconstructive surgery included stent-assisted coil embolization (24 patients) and the placement of single or multiple overlapping stents (8 patients). Destructive surgery was coil embolization combined with proximal coil trapping of the dissected segment of the parent artery (CE+ PT, 13 patients). Results: The incidence of perioperative complications was 11.4%, and the mortality associated with these complications was 4.4%. In the patients undergoing reconstructive surgery, one patient suffered from aneurysm rerupture and died, one patient had intraoperative thrombi in the parent artery and resulted in a complete patency after thrombolysis was performed with Tirofiban. Both perioperative complications occurred in patients treated with stent-assisted coil embolization. No complications occurred in patients treated with single or multiple overlapping stents placements. Perioperative brainstem ischemia occurred in three patients who were treated with destructive surgery, and caused one death and two severe disabilities. Clinical outcome evaluations were performed using the Modified Rankin Scale and resulted in the following scores: 0-2 for 41 patients, 3-6 for 4 patients. The prognosis of reconstructive group was better than that of destructive group, with statistical differences (P<0.05). The incidence of perioperative complications in reconstructive group was lower than that in destructive group, without significant differences (P>0.05). Conclusions: Endovascular treatment is effective and safe for VBDAs. The incidence of perioperative complication in reconstructive group is lower and the prognosis is better than that in destructive group.
