Brief Summary:
This study will evaluate the feasibility to predict the prognosis of IDA with IMH by DCE-MRI and provide theoretical basis for the prognosis and intervention of the disease.
Detailed Description:
Intracranial dissecting aneurysm (IDA) was a challenging disease and could result in stroke in young and middle-aged adults. Intramural hematoma, one of the typical imaging findings of IDA, can grow continuously in untreated IDA. Due to relatively high complication rate associated with surgical procedures, endovascular treatments have become the first-line therapy for such lesions. According to whether the parent artery was maintained, endovascular treatment was divided into deconstructive (proximal arterial occlusion and internal trapping) and reconstructive (stent implantation with or without coiling) techniques . However, recanalization of IDA was a great challenge for endovascular treatment and influenced the prognosis of patients.
The formation of an IMH is a critical event in the progress of IDA and IDA may grow because of recurrent IMH even after deconstructive endovascular treatment. Increased IMH size could result in severe compression symptoms or even death. At present, the mechanism of the continuous growth of intramural hematoma after endovascular treatment of IDA is still unclear. Some authors believe that the continuous hemorrhage of the vasa vasorum in the IMH results in the continuous enlargement of the IMH. However, this theory has not been proved by imaging in vivo.
Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging analysis for prognosis of intracranial dissecting aneurysm with intramural hematoma after endovascular treatment (DEMAT) is a prospective trial designed to collect a large series of patients with IDAs treated endovascularly to predict the prognosis of IDA with IMH by DCE-MRI and provide theoretical basis for the prognosis and intervention of the disease.
