- Hyperhomocysteinemia as a Risk Factor for Intracranial Aneurysms: A Case-Control Study(2018) ROSI, Jefferson; MORAIS, Barbara A.; PECORINO, Lucas S.; OLIVEIRA, Allan R.; SOLLA, Davi J. F.; TEIXEIRA, Manoel J.; FIGUEIREDO, Eberval G.OBJECTIVE: Homocysteine, an amino acid derived from methionine metabolism, has gained great importance as an important risk factor for cardiovascular diseases as the result of its thrombogenic properties and endothelial injury association. However, its role in the etiology and screening of intracranial aneurysms (IAs) has not been well studied. We aimed to test the hypothesis of a positive association between hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) and IAs. METHODS: A case-control study was performed at a vascular neurosurgery unit in Brazil between 2016 and 2017. In total, 180 patients were included: 142 patients with previous IAs (case group) and 38 patients with a previous diagnosis of arteriovenous malformation and no aneurysms on imaging evaluation (control group). HHcy was defined as homocysteine levels greater than 15 mu mol/L. Multivariate models were designed to adjust for potential confounders: age, sex, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and smoker status. RESULTS: The case group was older (56.3 + 12.6 years vs. 40.9 +/- 14.0 years, P < 0.001) and had a greater prevalence of women (76.1% vs. 55.3%, P = 0.012), as well as hypertension (45.1% vs. 2.6%, P < 0.001), dyslipidemia (60.6% vs. 10.5%, P = 0.001), and smokers (41.5% vs. 0.0%, P < 0.001). Median homocysteine in the cases was similar to the controls (10.5 mu mol/L [8.3-14.0] vs. 10.7 mu mol/L [8.2-13.3], respectively, P = 0.450). There was a trend toward greater HHcy prevalence in the case group (20.4% vs. 7.9%, P = 0.073). HHcy was associated with greater age, male sex, hypertension, and smoking status. After multivariate adjustment, HHcy had no association with IAs (odds ratio 1.34, 95% confidence interval 0.30-5.97, P = 0.703). CONCLUSIONS: No association was found between HHcy and IAs.
- Cavernous carotid aneurysms do not influence the occurrence of upstream ipsilateral aneurysm(2024) ROSI JUNIOR, Jefferson; SANTOS, Alexandra Gomes dos; SOLLA, Davi Jorge Fontoura; RABELO, Nicollas Nunes; SILVA, Saul Almeida da; IGLESIO, Ricardo Ferrareto; CALDAS, Jose Guillherme Mendes Pereira; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; FIGUEIREDO, Eberval GadelhaObjective Cavernous carotid aneurysms (CCA) comprehend around 5% of all intracranial aneurysms. The main risk factors for an intracranial aneurysm seem not to influence the incidence of CCAs. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of CCAs and the presence of upstream aneurysms. Methods 1403 patients, admitted in Hospital das Clinicas de Sao Paulo, Brazil, from September 2009 to August 2018, enrolled this study. Diagnosis was performed with Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA). Upstream aneurysm was defined as an intracranial aneurysm on anterior cerebral circulation, ipsilateral to the CCA (if present) or crossing the midline (e.g. anterior communicating artery). Results 177 individuals were diagnosed with CCA (12.6% of the population), totalizing 225 aneurysms (10% of the total number of aneurysms, 2253). No association was found between CCA and UA (p= .090, OR: 1.323, 95% CI: 0.957-1.828). Studying only patients with CCA, multivariable analysis showed smoking as the only factor associated with UA (p= .010, OR: 0.436, 95% CI: 0.232-0.821). Conclusions Cavernous carotid aneurysms were present in 12% of our population, mostly in female. They seem to be independent of the modifiable risk factors already associated with intracranial aneurysms. A higher frequency of mirror aneurysms was seen in this location. CCA did not influence the presence of ipsilateral and anterior circulation aneurysms.
- Comparison of surgical and endovascular treatments for fusiform intracranial aneurysms: systematic review and individual patient data meta-analysis(2021) TELLES, Joao Paulo Mota; SOLLA, Davi Jorge Fontoura; YAMAKI, Vitor Nagai; RABELO, Nicollas Nunes; SILVA, Saul Almeida da; CALDAS, Jose Guilherme Pereira; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; ROSI JUNIOR, Jefferson; FIGUEIREDO, Eberval GadelhaFusiform intracranial aneurysms (FIA) are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. We carried out a systematic review and meta-analysis of individual participant data with propensity score adjustment to compare the functional and angiographic outcomes between surgical and endovascular approaches to FIA. We conducted a systematic review for articles on the treatment of FIA with individual patient-level detailing. Data from patients treated for FIA in our institution from 2010 to 2018 were also collected. The primary studied outcome was morbidity, and secondary outcomes were angiographic results and retreatment. Propensity score-adjusted mixed-effects logistic regression models evaluated treatment options, stratified by anatomical location. Compiling original and published data, there were 312 cases, of which 79 (25.3%) had open surgery, and 233 (74.5%) were treated with endovascular procedures. There were no differences between treatment groups, for neither cavernous ICA (OR 1.04, 95% CI 0.05-23.6) nor supraclinoid aneurysms (OR 7.82, 95% CI 0.65-94.4). Both size (OR 1.11, 95% CI 1.03-1.19) and initial mRS (OR 2.0, 95% CI 1.2-3.3) were risk factors for morbidity, independent of location. Neither age nor rupture status influenced the odds of posterior morbidity. Unfavorable angiographic outcomes were more common in the endovascular group for supraclinoid and vertebrobasilar aneurysms (chi(2), P < 0.01). There were no differences between morbidity of surgical and endovascular treatments for FIA, regardless of aneurysm location. Size and initial mRS were correlated with functional outcomes, whereas age and rupture status were not. Microsurgery seems to yield better long-term angiographic results compared to endovascular procedures.
