Minimally invasive single-stage hybrid strategy for ruptured dissecting fusiform proximal posterior inferior cerebellar artery aneurysm: how I do it
To present a single-stage hybrid surgical approach for managing ruptured dissecting fusiform proximal PICA aneurysms, highlighting its potential to improve patient outcomes.
Key Findings:
The hybrid approach allows for simultaneous microsurgical and endovascular intervention, potentially reducing overall procedure time.
Successful PICA–PICA bypass maintained blood flow during aneurysm treatment, with no observed complications.
Complete occlusion of the aneurysm was achieved without compromising PICA patency, as confirmed by intraoperative imaging.
Interpretation:
This technique demonstrates a feasible and effective method for treating complex PICA aneurysms in a single surgical stage, potentially reducing patient risk and recovery time compared to traditional multi-stage approaches.
Limitations:
The approach may not be applicable to all PICA aneurysms due to anatomical variations, particularly in vessel size and location.
Limited literature on the hybrid technique for PICA aneurysms necessitates further studies to validate its efficacy and safety.
Conclusion:
The single-stage hybrid strategy for ruptured dissecting fusiform proximal PICA aneurysms is a promising approach that combines microsurgical and endovascular techniques, potentially enhancing patient outcomes and reducing recovery time.
