Prevalence and prognosis of acute ischemic stroke coexisting with unruptured intracranial aneurysms.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

The prevalence of unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs) in the acute ischemic stroke (AIS) cohort is probably higher than in the general population. This study investigated the prevalence of UIAs in AIS patients and the management risk and prognosis when treating AIS.

Methods

From January 2020 to January 2023, we conducted a single-center retrospective study at Tianjin Huanhu Hospital. Each patient underwent both brain MRI and MRA/CTA to diagnose AIS and UIAs. Clinical, radiologic, and therapeutic data during hospitalization and prognosis were analyzed. Propensity-score matching (PSM) was performed to evaluate the risk of in-hospital adverse events, unfavorable outcomes at discharge when receiving post-stroke treatment and stroke recurrence.
