Popis: | The aim was to evaluate the relationship between coil packing densities after splenic artery aneurysm (SAA) treatment using detachable microcoils and rates of SAA reperfusion and to suggest a post-treatment surveillance protocol using contrast-enhanced MRA. Evaluated were 16 patients (4 men; mean age 46.7), who underwent true SAA embolization using detachable microcoils (Concerto, Medtronic). SAAs were treated by selective coil packing (CP) or stent-assisted coil exclusion (SAC). Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography (CE-MRA) and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) were performed at 3 months post-procedure and correlated. Primary CP was used in 13 patients, while SAC was used in three patients. On follow-up, complete aneurysm occlusion was seen in seven patients (43.8%). Sac reperfusion occurred in nine patients (56.2%) and was demonstrated in all CE-MRA and six DSA studies. Mean aneurysm packing density was 20.10 ± 8.05% for the CP group and 32.90 ± 11.95% for the SAC group (p = 0.038). There was a significant difference in the incidence of aneurysm sac reperfusion on CE-MRA study between CP and SAC (9 vs. 0). No sac reperfusion was seen in aneurysms with packing densities ≥ 29%, irrespective of either embolization method. Favorable midterm results for coil packing of SAAs seem to depend on the coil packing density with a coil volume approximately a quarter of the aneurysm volume being most effective. Follow-up should involve the use of CE-MRA as this modality has been shown to be superior over DSA in detecting aneurysm reperfusion and coil compaction. Level IV, therapeutic study. |
