    Multiphoton microscopy for pre-clinical evaluation of flow-diverter stents for treating aneurysms

    International audienceBackground Conventional histological analyses are the gold standard for the study of aneurysms and vascular patholo-gies in pre-clinical research. Over the past decade, in vivo and ex vivo imaging using multiphoton microscopy have emerged as powerful pre-clinical tools for detailed tissue analyses that can assess morphology, the ex-tracellular matrix (ECM), cell density and vascularisation. Multiphoton microscopy allows for deeper tissue penetration with minor phototoxicity. Objective The present study aimed to demonstrate the current status of multimodality imaging, including multipho-ton microscopy, for detailed analyses of neo-endothelialisation and ECM evolution after flow-diverter stent (FDS) treatment in an experimental rabbit model of aneurysms. Methods Multiphoton microscopy tools for assessing autofluorescence and second harmonic generation (SHG) signals from biological tissues were used to evaluate the endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms in an animal model of aneurysms (pig, rabbit). Results from multiphoton microscopy were compared to those from standard histology, electronic and bright field microscopy. Conclusions The present study describes novel evaluation modes based on multiphoton microscopy for visualising tissue morphology (e.g., collagen, elastin, and cells) to qualify and quantify the extent of neo-intimal formation of covered arteries and device integration into the arterial wall using a rabbit model of intracranial aneurysms treated with FDS

    Selective endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms with a liquid embolic: a single-center experience in 39 patients with 41 aneurysms.

    Although embolization with detachable coils is an accepted alternative to surgical clipping, a major long-term problem is aneurysm recanalization due to coil compaction. Liquid embolic agents are a possible alternative as filling material that might decrease the recanalization rate. We evaluated the use of a liquid embolic for endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms.Case ReportsJournal Articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe

    ERMAInternational audienceBACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The management of unruptured intracranial aneurysms remains controversial and the results of endovascular treatment are not precisely known because no prospective data exist. The first prospective multicenter study (ATENA) was conducted in Canada and France to determine clinical outcome and risks of this treatment. METHODS: Six hundred forty-nine patients harboring a total of 1100 aneurysms from 27 Canadian and French neurointerventional centers were prospectively and consecutively treated by endovascular coil embolization. Of these, 739 unruptured intracranial aneurysms were treated during 700 procedures. Aneurysms were selectively treated in the great majority of cases (98.4%) with coils alone (54.5%), the balloon remodeling technique (37.3%), or stenting (7.8%). RESULTS: Endovascular treatment failed in 32 aneurysms (4.3%). Technical adverse events with or without clinical modification were encountered in 15.4% of patients and included thromboembolic complications (7.1% per procedure), intraoperative rupture (2.6% per procedure), and device-related problems (2.9% per procedure). Adverse events associated with transient or permanent neurological deficit or death were encountered in 5.4% of cases. The 1-month morbidity and mortality rates were 1.7% and 1.4%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Endovascular treatment of unruptured intracranial aneurysms is feasible in a high percentage of cases with low morbidity and mortality rates

    ERMAInternational audienceBACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: We report our experience using Matrix coils in coiling of cerebral aneurysms. METHODS: Clinical and angiographic outcomes of 152 patients (165 aneurysms) treated exclusively with Matrix coils were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS: There were 74 ruptured aneurysms (44.8%) and 91 unruptured (55.2%). After coiling, 84 (50.9%) aneurysms were occluded, 38 (23.0%) aneurysms had a neck remnant, and 43 (26.1%) aneurysms had a sac remnant. Packing ranged from 10% to 49% (mean and median, 27%). Overall treatment-induced morbidity was 6.6% and mortality was 1.3% (10 of 152 to 2 of 152, respectively). One hundred fifteen (69.7%) aneurysms were followed, disclosing 42 (36.5%) recurrences at a mean period of 9 months (median, 6 months; range, 1 to 28 months). The recurrence rate for small aneurysms (/=10 mm), the recurrence rate was 14 (56.0%) of 25 (P=0.0336). When packing was 25%, the recurrence rate was 29.8% (P=0.1588). Recurrence rate was not correlated to packing. Ruptured aneurysms recurred more frequently than unruptured aneurysms (P=0.0004). CONCLUSIONS: Matrix coils provided no better recanalization rates than those reported previously for bare platinum coils
