  • Aneurysms most often involve the right aortic sinus (67-85% of patients, often associated with a supracristal ventricular septal defect ), followed by the noncoronary sinus, whereas an aneurysm of the left sinus is rare. (medscape.com)
  • Unstable patients with thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) usually require medical or surgical ICU admission for careful hemodynamic monitoring. (medscape.com)
  • In addition, a subgroup analysis was conducted in the SAC group, and patients were regrouped into low-profile visualized intraluminal support (LVIS) and laser-cut groups to compare the perioperative procedure-related complications and clinical and angiographic follow-up outcomes. (frontiersin.org)
  • Among patients with ruptured aneurysms, 6.2-15.1% are tiny intracranial aneurysms ( 2 , 3 ). (frontiersin.org)
  • We included studies reporting symptomatic thromboembolic events (defined as clinical stroke or transient ischemic attacks) in patients who received antiplatelet therapy before coiling of unruptured aneurysms using unassisted coiling, balloon assistance, or multiple microcatheters. (bmj.com)
  • Recent guidelines and an evidence-based systematic review of the literature have formulated recommendations for the care of patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms, principally based on age, history, and aneurysm size. (medscape.com)
  • The feasibility of using a compressed interwoven Supera stent as a flow diverting device for popliteal aneurysms was recently demonstrated in patients. (springer.com)
  • This is a pilot study that discusses the rates of In-contrast stenosis in the largest series of patients treated for their intracranial aneurysms in a single center. (cns.org)
  • Despite effective medical treatment, the rate of neurological complications is as high as 30 percent in patients who survive bacterial meningitis. (wikidoc.org)
  • In most patients, heart pericardial tamponade, secondary peri- complications include systemic or pul- hydatidosis is calcified and become cardial cysts or constructive pericarditis. (who.int)
Neck3
  • All baseline characteristics were equivalent between the two groups except for aneurysm size and dome-to-neck aspect ratio. (frontiersin.org)
  • Notably, the unique structural characteristics of tiny intracranial aneurysms, such as very small size, thin aneurysm wall, and relatively wide neck, make it difficult and challenging for both clipping and endovascular treatment ( 4 ). (frontiersin.org)
  • The device features a braided cylindrical mesh tube that is implanted across the base or neck of the aneurysm. (medtronic.com)

Blood vessel6
  • Aneurysms in the brain occur when there is a weakened area in the wall of a blood vessel. (medlineplus.gov)
  • Such aneurysms can occur in any blood vessel that supplies the brain. (medlineplus.gov)
  • An aneurysm occurs when part of a blood vessel swells. (medicalnewstoday.com)
  • In some people, a congenital anomaly leads to weak and thin blood vessel walls, increasing the risk of an aneurysm. (medicalnewstoday.com)
  • As the body's natural healing process works with the flow diversion device, the blood vessel may heal, and the aneurysm may shrink. (medtronic.com)
  • Coiling involves approaching the aneurysm from inside the blood vessel, so that there is no need to open the skull. (brainandspine.org.uk)
