Abstract
16.4 percent of patients diagnosed with fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) are found to have internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection [1] which may lead to life threatening ICA dissecting pseudoaneurysm (ICADPA). Endovascular repair of ICADPA may be urgent when ICADPA is symptomatic, potential for rupture with no good alternatives. Tortuous anatomy with FMD and ICADS can represent a significant endovascular challenge, especially if there is an aneurysmal inflow‐zone stenosis.Objective: We present a unique case of right ICADPA with an inflow‐zone parent artery stenosis underwent angioplasty and repair with surpass evolve flow diverter (SEFD).
Case report and chart review.
49‐year‐old man history of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and left ICADPA status post stenting/stent‐assisted coiling in 2017, who presented with right‐sided pulsatile tinnitus after a facial injury. Cerebral angiography revealed a tortuous right ICA with FMD, and presence of a right ICADPA at the skull base measuring 16×8 mm with inflow zone stenosis and a post‐stenotic dilatation. An emergency repair was performed with an informed consent under general anesthesia. In order for the SEFD to deploy properly, an angioplasty of inflow‐zone parent artery stenosis was performed with a 3×20mm Maverick balloon. Subsequently, a SEFD measuring 5×40 mm was deployed to cover the dissecting pseudoaneurysm, and a second SEFD measuring 5×20 mm was deployed covering the ICADS resulting in good apposition of SEFD and securement of ICADS.Use of a metal self‐deployable stent prior to flow diversion was not an option due to the presence of extreme tortuosity and acute angulations on the parent artery.patient was discharged home after 24 hours with 325 mg of aspirin and 75 mg of clopidogrel and good blood pressure control. 90‐days follow‐up, demonstrated good recovery with modified Rankin score of 0 with no symptoms.
ICADPA with aneurysmal inflow zone parent artery stenosis and the presence of extream tortuosity and acute angulations, may require angioplasty prior to the flow diversion for successful repair. Further studies are required.
