Popis: Background: At present, efficacy of carotid endarterectomy for prevention of cerebrovascular accidents has been convincingly proven. Its results in patients with a history of an ischemic stroke depend on multiple factors.Aim: To study results of reconstructive interventions on internal carotid arteries in patients with post-stroke cerebral cysts.Materials and methods: We analyzed data from 210 patients who had undergone an intervention (159 men and 51 women, aged 61 ± 2.7 years) with occluding lesions of the internal carotid artery and a history of an ischemic stroke. Depending on the size of a post-stroke lesion, patients were divided into 5 groups: patients from group 1 had a lesion of more than 5 cm in diameter, from group 2, from 2 to 5 cm, from group 3, ≤ 2 cm, patients from group 4 had a lacunar cysts and patients from group 5 had no focal lesions.Results: A clear positive correlation between the size of a post-stroke cyst and the degree of hemodynamic abnormalities in internal carotid arteries was found. The most prominent asymmetry of blood flow in the middle cerebral artery (on average, 34.1%) was seen in patients from the group 1. Patients from the group 1 more often had low and critical brain tolerance to ischemia (42.9%). In patients with large post-stroke cysts (group 1) mean Barthell index was 69 ± 8.1, and NIHSS score 8.2 ± 1.6. In patients from other groups neurological deficiency was less pronounced: 80 ± 6.8 and 7.6 ± 1.9 in the group 2, 82 ± 5.7 and 4.1 ± 1.3 in the group 3, 94 ± 4.6 and 3.2 ± 1 in the groups 4 and 5. The differences between groups in the rates of postoperative complications were not statistically significant (p > 0.5). However, signs of hyperperfusion without any clinical manifestations were more often observed in patients from the group 1 (19%). Assessment of changes in neurological status at 1 year after the intervention, depending on the size of post-stroke lesions, showed that in patients with large cysts the regression of neurological deficiency was less obvious, than in other groups (NIHSS 7.5 ± 1.7, Barthell index 76 ± 7.7). The best restoration of impaired neurological functions was seen in patients with small cysts (NIHSS 2.2 ± 0.7, Barthell index 91 ± 3.4).Conclusion: In patients with large and intermediate post-stroke cerebral cysts surgery is associated with a higher complication rate, and, first of all, of hyperperfusion syndrome. However, the risk of these complications is significantly smaller than the probability of repeated acute cerebrovascular accidents.
