2. ANEURYSMS-basic facts
•Subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH).
•One in every 20 strokes , at the prime of ones life (commonly between 40-50yrs).
•Up to 40-50% patients do not survive even for a month mostly because of the reruptureof the aneurysm
•With proper treatment up to 90% of patient who reach hospital before any major damage has happened will lead an independent and productive lifeInitial CT ScanRebleeding after 1 day
3. ISAT
Randomized, prospective,
international trial
Clipping vs coiling
9559 patients screened, 2143 randomized
at 1 year, the difference in the risk of dependency or death between the two groups was 6.9% and the relative risk reduction was 22.6%(in the coiling group)
ISAT follow-up, Lancet 2009-death at 5 years lowerThe Barrow Ruptured Aneurysm TrialCompared clipping vscoiling in SAH patients. Poor outcome -33.7% in clipping vs23.2% in coiling
4. Guidelines for the Management of AneurysmalSAH: Special Writing Group of the Stroke Council, ASA/AHA Stroke 2009
Amenable to both endovascularcoiling andneurosurgical clipping, endovascular coiling canbe beneficial(Class I, Level of Evidence B).
Metanalysis
•Stroke 2013
•AJNR 2013
•Ruptured aneurysms-better outcomesafter endovascular management
5. In the ISAT and BRAT trials only 39.8% and 62.3% percentage of patients respectively were treated by endovascular approach
•Image-guidance (3-D , Dyna-CT)
•Coil, catheter, balloons, stents
•Drugs-aspirin, clopidogrel, abciximab
•Appx. 90% by endovascular
•Intra-arterial vasospasm mgt.
•HELP and Cerecytestudies –mRS0-2 in 87% (80% in ISAT)
6. Coiling as first choice…
Lubicz B et alof 167 patients treated by coiling as first intention, 87.3% coiled, surgery in 12.7% cases.

39. The ISAT revealed a complete occlusion rate of 66% (584 of 988) in the coiled patients, whereas other case series of ruptured coiled aneurysms revealed complete occlusion rates ranging from 33% to 81%
Occlussion rate…
40. Complications...
Low ischemic complications -analysis, anti-coagulation (ACT), early use of lytic agents like Abciximib (Reopro) to prevent clinical complication.
Cases of rupture-prevention is the key, rapid response (hypotension, reversal of anticoagulation, coil occlusion of the perforation site, and the use of a balloon to temporarily occlude the artery.)
41. overall death or dependency was 18.0%.
ISAT trial -23.7%,
BRAT trial -20.4%
GDC CLARITY study -23.3%
Outcome…
44. CONCLUSION
>90-95%, with good outcomes –87.6% ( Good grade),
Team work (NS, INR, critical care)
Meticulous technique with protocols
Imaging, technological advances in material, team work, management of SAH related complication such as vasospasm
Limitation -these are the initial management outcomes only
