Intraprocedural Flat Panel Detector Rotational Angiography and an Image Fusion Technique for Delivery of a Microcatheter into the Targeted Shunt Pouch of a Dural Arteriovenous Fistula.

ABSTRACT: The accurate and safe delivery of a microcatheter to a targeted shunt pouch is essential for successful transvenous embolization of intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulas. However, complex anatomy and variations in head and neck veins and occluded sinuses can hinder intraprocedural microcatheter delivery. In this study, we introduce an intraprocedural flat panel detector rotational angiography and image fusion technique to aid precise navigation inside the veins and proper placement of the microcatheter in the targeted shunt pouch.

Angioarchitecture of Spinal Dural Arteriovenous Fistula - Evaluation with 3D Rotational Angiography.

Project description:PurposeThe complex angioarchitecture of spinal dural arteriovenous fistulas (SDAVFs) sometimes preclude angiographic analyses or superselective procedures. Therefore, the effectiveness of 3 dimensional rotational angiography (3DRA) as a detailed imaging technique for SDAVFs was evaluated.Materials and methodsOf 57 patients with spinal vascular malformations, recent 13 SDAVF patients underwent 3DRA. The advantage of 3DRA compared to digital subtraction angiography (DSA) in imaging SDAVF was assessed. Angioarchitecture of SDAVF was focused on location, number, and course of feeders and draining vein. Appropriate angled views were also selected to reveal the segmental artery and feeders.Results3DRA technique provided additional information for imaging evaluation of SDAVFs compared to DSA; the presence of multiple feeders, including their transdural portions, as well as their courses. The contralaterally angled anterior-oblique-caudal (spider) view showed the radicular feeder by separating the intercostal artery and the dorsal muscular branch. The bottom-to-up (tunnel) view was useful for revealing the location (ventral vs. dorsal) including sharp medial turn of the dural feeder. The dual mode, which displays both vessels and bones, revealed the course of the feeders and the fistula related to the spinal bony column.ConclusionBecause spinal vasculature overlaps in DSA, 3DRA revealed additional information for evaluations of the number and transdural course of fistular feeders in SDAVFs, and it offers working angles to obtain appropriate views.

Cone-beam CT-assisted microcatheter tip placement at the shunted pouch entry zone: A technical note for anterior condylar arteriovenous fistula.

Project description:Accurate microcatheter placement for anterior condylar arteriovenous fistula (AVF) enables selective transvenous embolization (TVE) and helps to avoid hypoglossal nerve palsy. Anterior condylar AVF has a shunted pouch within the condylar vascular and osseous structures. Detailed anatomical comprehension of the shunted pouch is essential, in addition, we believe that it is important to have a strategy for where in the shunted pouch to start filling with coils. Specifically, we consider that it is important to structurally understand the more upstream location (arterial side) within the shunted pouch (called "shunted pouch entry zone"), guide the microcatheter there, and embolize from that site. Although several studies have discussed the usefulness of intraoperative cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) for treating anterior condylar AVF, there are no studies which have mentioned the importance of microcatheter position before coil embolization in selective TVE as in this study. Intraoperative localization of the shunted pouch entry zone is often difficult. Herein, the authors report that cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) can assist accurate microcatheter tip placement at the shunted pouch entry zone before staring embolization. This is the novel application of intraoperative CBCT to treat anterior condylar AVF successfully treated with precise and selective TVE.

Updates in the management of cranial dural arteriovenous fistula.

Project description:Dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) accounts for approximately 10% of all intracranial vascular malformations. While they can be benign lesions, the presence of retrograde venous drainage and cortical venous reflux makes the natural course of these lesions aggressive high risk of haemorrhage, neurological injury and mortality. Endovascular treatment is often the first line of treatment for dAVF. Both transarterial and transvenous approaches are used to cure dAVF. The selection of treatment approach depends on the angioarchitecture of the dAVF, the location, the direction of venous flow. Surgery and, to a lesser extent, stereotactic radiosurgery are used when endovascular approaches are impossible or unsuccessful.

A case of recurrent cavernous sinus dural arteriovenous fistula arising after superselective shunt occlusion and detected by venous arterial spin labeling.

Project description:BackgroundSuperselective shunt occlusion (SSSO) for cavernous sinus dural arteriovenous fistula (CSDAVF) avoids the risk of cranial nerve palsy, unlike entire sinus packing, but requires paying attention to recurrence. Distinguishing between true and paradoxical worsening of postoperative ophthalmic symptoms using a less-invasive modality is often difficult. Here, we report a case of true worsening of neuro-ophthalmic symptom by recurrent CSDAVF detected by venous-arterial spin labeling (ASL) on magnetic resonance imaging.Case descriptionA 55-year-old woman with neither contributory medical history nor previous head trauma presented with neuro-ophthalmic symptoms and pulsatile tinnitus. Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) revealed CSDAVF with multiple shunted pouches. She underwent successful transvenous SSSO, but neuroophthalmic symptom worsened after SSSO and venous-ASL revealed increased signal intensity in the right superior orbital vein (SOV). DSA confirmed recurrent CSDAVF and additional transvenous embolization was performed. Neuro-ophthalmic symptoms and venous-ASL hyperintensity on SOV improved postoperatively.ConclusionVenous-ASL is noninvasive and seems useful for detecting true worsening of neuro-ophthalmic symptoms of recurrent CSDAVF.

Potential biomarkers of spinal dural arteriovenous fistula: C4BPA and C1QA.

Project description:Background and purposeA major challenge in spinal dural arteriovenous fistula (SDAVF) is timely diagnosis, but no specific predictive biomarkers are known.MethodsIn the discovery cohort (case, n = 8 vs. control, n = 8), we used cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and paired plasma samples to identify differentially expressed proteins by label-free quantitative proteomics. Further bioinformatics enrichment analyses were performed to screen target proteins. Finally, it was validated by ELISA in two of the new cohorts (case, n = 17 vs. control, n = 9), and univariate analysis, simple linear regression, and receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve analysis were performed to evaluate the diagnostic potential.ResultsIn the discovery cohort, the most overexpressed proteins were APOB and C4BPA in CSF samples of patients. The GO/KEGG enrichment analysis indicated that the upregulated proteins were mainly involved in the acute inflammatory response and complement activation. Hub-gene analysis revealed that APP might be the key protein in the molecular interaction network. In the validation cohort, C4BPA and C1QA were significantly overexpressed in the CSF of patients, averaging 3046.9 ng/ml and 2167.2 ng/ml, respectively. Simple linear regression demonstrated that levels of C1QA and C4 were positively correlated with total protein in CSF (R2 = 0.8021, p = 0.0005; R2 = 0.7447, p = 0.0013). The areas under the ROC curves of C4BPA and C1QA were 0.86 and 1.00, respectively.ConclusionsThis study was the first to identify C4BPA and C1QA as potential biomarkers for the diagnosis of SDAVF and revealed that complement pathway activation might be one of the molecular mechanisms for venous hypertension myelopathy.

Successful endovascular treatment of ruptured bilateral ophthalmic frontal dural arteriovenous fistula.

Project description:Bilateral ophthalmic-ethmoidal dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) are extremely rare and may present as complex lesions. These DAVFs are associated with high risk of intracranial hemorrhage but can be presented with ocular symptoms, cranial nerve palsy or epistaxis. Endovascular approaches have been used to manage an increasing proportion of complex intracranial DAVFs safely and with good clinical results. We present a patient with subdural hematoma and severe epistaxis due to ruptured bilateral ophthalmic-ethmoidal DAVF that was successfully treated by transarterial embolization with precipitating hydrophobic injectable liquid.

Endovascular Treatment of Medial Tentorial Dural Arteriovenous Fistula Through the Dural Branch of the Pial Artery.

Project description:Background: Tentorial dural arteriovenous fistula is a rare subtype of intracranial dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) with a deteriorating natural course, which may be attributed to its pial angioarchitecture. TDAVF often harbors feeders arising from pial arteries (FPAs). Reports have revealed that, if these feeders are not obliterated early, the restricted venous outflow during the embolization process may cause upstream congestion in the fragile pial network, which increases the risk of hemorrhagic complications. Because most reported cases of TDAVF were embolized through feeders from non-pial arteries (FNPAs), little is known of the feasibility of direct embolization through FPAs. Methods: We present three patients with medial TDAVFs that were embolized through the dural branches of the posterior cerebral and superior cerebellar arteries. Findings from brain magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, angiography, and clinical outcomes are described. Furthermore, we performed a review of the literature on TDAVFs with FPAs. Results: The fistulas were completely obliterated in two patients; both recovered well with no procedure-related complications. The fistula was nearly obliterated in one patient, who developed left superior cerebellum and midbrain infarct due to the reflux of the embolizer into the left superior cerebellar artery. Including our cases, eight cases of TDAVFs with direct embolization through the FPAs have been reported, and ischemic complications occurred in three (37.5%). Conclusions: Advancing microcatheter tips as close to the fistula point as possible and remaining highly aware of potential embolizer flow back into the pial artery are key factors in achieving successful embolization. Balloon-assisted embolization may be an option for treating TDAVFs with FPAs in the future.

Indocyanine Green Videoangiography in Negative: Spinal Dural Arteriovenous Fistula.

Project description:Introduction This work reports the first indocyanine green videoangiography (IGV) in negative published with video format support. This technique, so called because its first phase is performed with occlusion of the vessel suspected of being pathologic, is used for the diagnosis of spinal arteriovenous fistula (sDAVF). Case Report The authors present the case of a 68-year-old man with an sDAVF fed by the right T7 segmentary artery. IGV was initially performed with the presumptive fistula feeder occluded for less than 1 minute, which provided both diagnostic and postexclusion control in one procedure. This technique therefore is reversible by not prolonging vascular exclusion times. Discussion IGV in negative is an extremely visual and intuitive procedure that represents an improvement over conventional IGV. Conclusion Studies with larger sample sizes are necessary to determine whether IGV in negative can further reduce the need for postoperative digital subtraction angiography.

Bailout using NBCA for incomplete onyx embolization of tentorial dural arteriovenous fistula.

Project description:Transarterial embolization using Onyx (Medtronic, Irvine, CA, USA) results in a high cure rate for complete obliteration of dural arteriovenous fistulas. However, incomplete obliteration occurs in some cases. Reports on the use of bailout therapy in such cases are limited. A 79-year-old man was diagnosed with Borden type III tentorial dural arteriovenous fistulas during a check-up for a headache. We first performed transarterial embolization with Onyx from a tentorial artery, but the fistula was not completely obliterated. We then performed an additional transarterial embolization with n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate from the same artery in a single session, and the fistula was successfully bailed out, resulting in complete obliteration. Combining different liquid embolic materials, Onyx and n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate, is an effective strategy for achieving complete obliteration in incomplete transarterial embolization treatment of dural arteriovenous fistulas.
