[Intracranial saccular aneurysms: experimental evaluation of intravascular therapeutic procedures]. 1980

M G Siqueira, and I A Vieira, and E A Cilião, and D M Guerra

Studies were performed on adult mongrel dogs to evaluate the possibility of occluding saccular aneurysms with an intravascular injection of the tissue adhesive Bucrylat (isobutyl-2-cyanoacrylate). Fourteen surgically constructed carotid aneurysms were occluded by the injection of Bucrylat through a fluoroscopically positioned intra-arterial catheter. Angiography performed immediately before and after injection and up to 1 month following treatment revealed progressive and persistent occlusion of the aneurysms. The specimens examined histologically 1 month after the injection showed an endothelialized fibrous tissue bridge crossing the neck of the aneurysm what appear to indicate a permanent occlusion of the structures treated. A similar approach to treat intracranial aneurysms will depend on advances in the field of selective intracranial catheterization that will permit safe and accurate catheterization of the aneurysm sac.

D002404 Catheterization Use or insertion of a tubular device into a duct, blood vessel, hollow organ, or body cavity for injecting or withdrawing fluids for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. It differs from INTUBATION in that the tube here is used to restore or maintain patency in obstructions. Cannulation,Cannulations,Catheterizations
D002532 Intracranial Aneurysm Abnormal outpouching in the wall of intracranial blood vessels. Most common are the saccular (berry) aneurysms located at branch points in CIRCLE OF WILLIS at the base of the brain. Vessel rupture results in SUBARACHNOID HEMORRHAGE or INTRACRANIAL HEMORRHAGES. Giant aneurysms (>2.5 cm in diameter) may compress adjacent structures, including the OCULOMOTOR NERVE.
