摘要

Background

Optimal Woven EndoBridge (WEB) sizing is crucial for successful implantation. We used three-dimensional (3D) software, Siemens Aneurysm Analysis v. VD30B, to determine the potential of WEB device-aneurysm volume (DAV) ratios in predicting post-treatment occlusion status.

Methods

We retrospectively reviewed 35 unruptured intracranial wide-neck bifurcation aneurysms treated using the WEB. The study evaluated the association between the DAV ratio and aneurysm obliteration during follow-up. The primary aim of the study was to determine the optimal DAV ratio for predicting occlusion status following WEB treatment.

Results

The success rate of treating all unruptured aneurysms with the WEB was 100%. The median duration to final follow-up was 365 ± 184.0 days with all 35 patients having a mean modified Rankin Scale score of 0. One (2.9%) patient experienced a transient ischemic attack with hemiparesis perioperatively. A follow-up angiography revealed complete occlusion (WEB Occlusion Scale [WOS] A and B) in 25 (71.4%) of 35 patients and WOS C and D in 10 (28.6%) of 35. The median DAV ratio significantly differed between the groups. The median DAV ratios were 0.97 in the complete occlusion group and 0.84 in the WOS C and D group, respectively (p = 0.002). A receiver operating characteristic curve produced an area under the curve of 0.76 (confidence interval: 0.56–0.96). The optimal DAV ratio cut-off and the highest Youden index for complete occlusion was 0.90.

Conclusion

Calculating DAV ratios using 3D software may help improve the rate of complete occlusion following WEB treatment.
