Endovascular intervention vs. microsurgery on the prognosis of anterior circulation blood blister-like aneurysm: A cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

There are no universally acknowledged standardized treatment strategies for blood blister-like aneurysms (BBAs). This study compared the prognosis of patients with BBA who underwent craniotomy microsurgery vs. endovascular intervention.

Methods

This retrospective cohort study included patients with BBA treated between September 2009 and August 2020 at Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital affiliated to the Sichuan Academy of Medical Science. Patients were divided into the microsurgery and endovascular groups. The preoperative Hunt-Hess grade and modified Fisher grade were collected. The intraoperative and postoperative complications (including intraoperative aneurysm rupture and hemorrhage, postoperative cerebral hemorrhage, and BBA recurrence) were recorded.
