There can be increased intracranial pressure with papilledema. There is no systematic large-scale study for the treatment of VBD by drugs, surgery or interventional operation and a lack of large-scale randomized controlled trials for anticoagulation and antiplatelet therapy [2]. All of our . 2,7,8,19 The shape, size, and . Vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia (VBD) is characterized by dilatation, elongation, and tortuosity of the vertebrobasilar arteries, with the presenting symptoms resulting from ischemia or compression of the brainstem. • Fusiform aneurysms commonly affect the vertebrobasilar and internal carotid arteries. Found inside – Page 1153–9 per cent of patients with intracranial AVMs have saccular aneurysms in ... may form a fusiform aneurysm.813 Dolichoectasia and fusiform aneurysms are ... A comprehensive review of vascular disease in the vertebrobasilar circulation by one of the world's leading authorities, fully updated throughout. Intracranial arterial dolichoectasia in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. Mechanical ventilation and antibiotic therapy were applied however the patient did not recover. When widening is extreme, the artery balloons into a fusiform aneurysm, whereas if both lengthening and widening occur, the aneurysm becomes dolichoectatic. When the patient is not able to tolerate the balloon occlusion test, microsurgical creation of a bypass in combination with endovascular treatment can performed (27). • Application of advanced endovascular techniques, including flow-directing stents and stent-assisted coiling, has increasingly allowed successful treatment of complex nonsaccular aneurysms. This volume it the HCN series is an evidence-based compendium which addresses both the scientific and clinical aspects of this unique disease process. CT angiography can provide many of the same advantages as MR angiography, with equal or better resolution for definition of the vascular lumen, and high sensitivity to mural changes, particularly mural calcifications. Fatal subarachnoid hemorrhage following ischemia in vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia. Neuroradiol J 2015;28(4):365-75. Bhogal P, Pérez MA, Ganslandt O, Bäzner H, Henkes H, Fischer S. Treatment of posterior circulation non-saccular aneurysms with flow diverters: a single-center experience and review of 56 patients. Ectasia was considered if the minimum diameter of the BA was greater than 4.5 mm [5]. Dolichoectasia, which is elongation and fusiform dilatation of the intracranial vessels, has an incidence of 0.06-5.8% (1-4).Several types of dolichoectasia are distinguished—atherosclerotic and congenital types—the latter seen in younger patients without atherosclerosis or other known causes of cerebral aneurysms (5-7).A third type, resulting from dissection, can present with a . Dai D, Kadirvel R, Rezek I, Ding YH, Lingineni R. Kallmes D. Elastase-induced intracranial dolichoectasia model in mice. The first description of abnormal elongated and dilated intracranial vessels is attributed to the Italian anatomist Giovanni Battista Morgagni in his text “De sedibus, et causis morborum per anatomen indagatis libri quinque” in 1761 (39). Dr. Bulwa of Rush University has no relevant financial relationships to disclose. BA length, diameter and volume, and cerebral lesions were analysed by MRI/TOF-MR . Treatment of posterior circulation non-saccular aneurysms with flow diverters: a single-center experience and review of 56 patients. Occurrence of SAH shortly after worsening of clinical VBD symptoms has occasionally been reported. Respiratory functions, body temperature, the blood count, C-reactive protein, serum glucose, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, thyroid function tests and the other hematological investigations were all within normal limits. The Rt VA is measuring 6.2mm and left VA is hypoplastic, with non-visualized V4. Utilization of Pipeline embolization device for treatment of ruptured intracranial aneurysms: US multicenter experience. J Neurointerv Surg. Wascher T. Hypothermic circulatory arrest. . Another series reported retrospective natural history data from 121 patients with unruptured intradural fusiform aneurysms (53). Surgical treatments of nonsaccular aneurysms include (1) reinforcement of the aneurysm dome by wrapping, (2) direct clipping, (3) resection and re-anastomosis, (4) trapping and distal bypass, (5) proximal occlusion, (6) transposition, and (7) thrombectomy, endarterectomy, and aneurysmorrhaphy. Overall mortality was ~40% after 7 years of follow-up, with 43% of these deaths resulting from non-neurologic causes. Dolichoectasia comes from the Greek dolikhos meaning long and ektasis meaning distention of a tubular structure. Median survival was 7.8 years, with death most often due to cerebral ischemia (15). Absence of pontine perforators in vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia on ultra-high resolution cone-beam computed tomography. In the same series, the 1- and 10-year risk of cerebral infarction was 2.7% and 15.9%, respectively, and the risk of recurrent cerebral infarction was 6.7% per patient year. Housepian EM, Pool JL. Giant fusiform and dolichoectatic aneurysms of the basilar trunk and vertebrobasilar junction (BTVBJ-GFDA) are rare vascular anomalies with histological prevalence report of 0.17% to 5.8%. Vertical gaze palsies have been described in many studies and they have been related to ischemic midbrain lesions [15]. We performed brain magnetic resonance imaging of the patient and then CT angiography in our interventional neurology clinic. Bookshelf The saccular intracranial aneurysm (left upper) forms at the branching sites of the arteries, whereas the uncommon fusiform intracranial aneurysm (right upper) mainly involves the arterial trunks (see Figure 5). These studies assessing the occurrence of abnormally dilated and/or tortuous intracranial arteries do not reflect the much lower prevalence of true fusiform aneurysms. Similarly, in the setting of hemorrhage, efforts to secure the aneurysm should generally be undertaken if feasible. The most commonly symptoms are related with ischemic, hemorrhagic and mass effect of the lesion [4]. J Clin Neurosci 2017;35:133-8. 8600 Rockville Pike Dolichoectasia of the middle cerebral artery is a rare and benign lesion, however, it can masquerade as cerebral cavernous malformation or intracranial arterial aneurysm and careful radiological evaluation with the suggested diagnostic criteria are of paramount importance to prevent its misdiagnosis. The prevalence of dolichoectasia varies according to the populations studied and the diagnostic criteria applied. Two studies found that stroke patients with intracranial arterial dolichoectasia (IADE) had lacunar infarction more often than the control subjects. Rughani G, Robertson L, Clarke M. Medical treatment for small abdominal aortic aneurysms. Typically, an iliac artery has a diameter no greater than 1.7 centimeters in males or 1 . Basilar artery aneurysms are less common than anterior circulation aneurysms, and rupture less frequently, but their critical location necessitates careful evaluation.. Radiographic features CT. may present as a lobulated hyperattenuating structure anterior to the mid brain; rupture of a basilar artery aneurysm is typically localized to the interpeduncular cistern, but may extend into the . At vero eos et accusamus et iusto odio dignissimos ducimus qui blanditiis praesentium voluptatum deleniti atque corrupti quos dolores et quas. Neurovascular Surgery. Dolichoectasia of intracranial arteries, particularly involving the basilar artery, is common in stroke patients with atherosclerotic risk factors. Kim KJ, Kim JM. Basilar artery Dolichoectasia is an unusual and very rare cause of secondary Trigeminal Neuralgia as it compresses the Trigeminal nerve Root Entry Zone. Found inside – Page 166DOLICHOECTASIA AND FUSIFORM ANEURYSMS The term 'dolichoectasia' describes the elongation, widening and tortuosity of a blood vessel and is usually in the ... Background:Vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia (VBD) is a rare disease characterized by significant expansion, elongation, and tortuosity of the vertebrobasilar arteries.Hydrocephalus is a rare compilation of VBD. Even though an ischemic lesion was considered at initial presentation, MRI showed no evidence of ischemia. eCollection 2020. As the gold standard for the diagnosis of cerebrovascular disease, DSA can not only show the lesion clearly, but also can be used as a method of treatments, although it means greater trauma and high-risk [2].

Del Brutto OH, Mera RM, Del Brutto VJ, Costa AF, Zambrano M, Brorson J. Basilar artery dolichoectasia: prevalence and correlates with markers of cerebral small vessel disease in community-dwelling older adults. CT scan cannot fully demonstrate the changes of thrombosis within the blood vessel walls however if scans reveal calcification of the basilar artery, it could indicate the existence of VBD. Figure 1: Dilatation of the left vertebrobasilar artery on CT that has no ischemic area signs. Other names for this disorder include dolichoectasia, megadolichoectasia, fusiform aneurysm of the vertebral and basilar arteries, and tortuous vertebrobasilar system. Similarities in the biological characteristics between aortic aneurysms and nonsaccular intracranial aneurysms suggest consideration of medical therapies proposed for prevention of aortic aneurysm growth, such as doxycycline or roxithromycin (40; 52). In Yu's large series of 50,000 angiograms, 31 fusiform aneurysms were discovered (0.06%), 14 of which were in the internal carotid artery circulation, 8 in the vertebrobasilar circulation, and 9 in both (72). This 59-year-old male had hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia and a history of coronary disease treated with coronary bypass grafting as well as abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. VBD is an anatomic variant that consists of enlargement and dilatation, often associated with a tortuous and elongated vessel. Found inside – Page 622DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS Common • Dolichoectasia • Atherosclerotic Fusiform Aneurysm • Dissecting Aneurysm/Pseudoaneurysm • Nonaneurysmal Dissection Less ... An aneurysm in the iliac artery exists in 0.1%. Methods: Dolichoectasia of the intracerebral vessels is a rare disorder, accounting for <0.1% of aneurysms in autopsy and angiographic studies. Coert BA, Chang SD, Do HM, Marks MP, Steinberg GK. Such a thrombus can propagate, occlude penetrating vessels (especially those originating from the basilar artery), and result in brainstem strokes (13; 01). describe the case series of 3 children with bilateral INO as a consequence of extremely rare ophthalmologic finding in association with compression of brain tumors [6]. Chen Z, Zhang S, Dai Z, Cheng X, Wu M, Dai Q, Liu X, Xu G. BMC Neurol. Intracranial dolichoectasia of the distal ICA was identified in 20 patients from 2005-2016 through a review of diagnostic cerebral angiography results. Zhang Y, Tian Z, Sui B, et al. Patient selection remains a very important determinant to avoid complications and reach good outcomes. The left vertebral artery diameter was over 12 mm in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (Figure 3). 2020 Aug 20;13:523-527. doi: 10.2147/IJGM.S269649.

Giant fusiform aneurysms of the cerebral arteries. J Neuropathol Exp Neurol 1958;17:409-23. High field strength MRI scanning is increasingly used to perform vessel wall imaging, with remarkable resolution. In our case we could not use the surgical or endovascular therapy, we could use anticoagulation and antiplatelet therapy alone. World Neurosurg 2011 Dec;76(6):592.e1-5. Hypertension is the most common cause of cerebellar hemorrhage. Even aneurysms in small distal vessels, such as the distal anterior cerebral artery, can sometimes be successfully treated with flow-diverting stents (43). Hypopituitarism and a bitemporal visual field defect can mimic a pituitary neoplasm. Note is also made of the dysplastic middle cerebral arteries and aneurysms at the bifurcation (white . Clinical and imaging characteristics of diffuse intracranial dolichoectasia. aneurysm, occipital with basilar artery aneurysms, retro-orbital or frontal with internal carotid artery aneurysms, and may antedate other neurologic symptoms by days or months. BA length, diameter and volume, and cerebral lesions were analysed by MRI/TOF-MR . Surgical and endovascular treatment of fusiform aneurysms is generally reserved for larger, more often symptomatic or progressing aneurysms; therefore, outcomes cannot be directly compared to results observed in aneurysms treated expectantly. Found inside – Page 70Dolichoectasia and fusiform aneurysms : dilations on axis of large vessel possible in elderly hypertensive diabetic patients with advanced atherosclerosis . Especially, please allow me to dedicate my acknowledgment of gratitude toward the significant advisors and contributors of this study. Neurosurg Rev 2020. 2018;45(1-2):68-77. doi: 10.1159/000486866. Dolichoectasia, particularly of the vertebrobasilar and carotid arteries, can be a relatively common manifestation in patients with atherosclerotic disease or cerebral small vessel disease. Most cases are asymptomatic. About. Intracranial arterial dolichoectasia describes the presence of at least 1 ectatic and/or tortuous artery in the cerebral vasculature, usually with a uniform enlarged circumference (46). Cerebral ischemia can occur due to abnormal antegrade laminar blood flow predisposing to thrombosis and embolism, or by occlusion of branch vessels due to stretching and obliteration of arteries arising from the vascular anomaly. It can also impair the apnea and cerebellar ataxia with symptoms which can range from mild to severe [12]. New York: McGraw-Hill, 1st ed. Found inside – Page 174Dolichoectasia of the intracranial arteries is relatively common; ... The mass effect of a very large aneurysm can cause recurrent headaches. The prospective risk of rupture has been estimated to be 0.9% to 2.3% per year (14). These aneurysms accounted for 5% to 9% of all aneurysms (23; 58). Found inside – Page xxixGenetic syndromes, Aicardi (AC) syndrome vs., 115 Genitourinary anomalies, ... vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia vs., 241 Giant thrombosed sellar aneurysm, ... Atherosclerotic plaque found in the affected basilar arteries has been considered by these authors a secondary effect of the arteriopathy and dilatation (47; 31). The advent of balloon-assisted coiling, stent-assisted coiling, balloon-in-stent-assisted coiling, and even stent-in-stent remodeling has advanced the ability of the interventionalist to treat aneurysms with circumferential dilatation or wide necks (06; 32). The natural history of radiographically defined vertebrobasilar nonsaccular intracranial aneurysms. Single or combined cranial nerve deficits can result from a tortuous dolichoectatic basilar artery or frank aneurysmal dilatation (60; 46). Aneurysms greater than 2.5 cm in diameter are referred to as "giant" (19). Lysosomal α-glucosidase deficiency (Pompe disease) not only leads to glycogen accumulation in skeletal muscle, but also in the cerebral arteries. Won YS, Rho MH, Chung EC, et al. Intracranial arterial dolichoectasia (IADE) is an arteriopathy characterized by abnormal elongation, tortuosity, and dilation of the cerebral arteries. The treatment of VBD includes medical and surgical treatment. Escourolle & Poirier: Manual of Basic Neuropathology, 4th edition. No specific means of preventing the formation of fusiform and dolichoectatic aneurysms are known. Aneurysmal isolation with resultant obliterative thrombosis and involution has been the most popular surgical strategy and can be achieved either by proximal occlusion or trapping (11). The most commonly identified causes of INO were vascular diseases, multiple sclerosis, infectious, head trauma, tumors and Chiari malformations. Thus, true fusiform aneurysms are relatively uncommon. Conclusions: The natural history of patients with diffuse intracranial dolichoectasia is significantly worse than that . Reported case series reflect the complexity and difficulty of surgical treatment of these cases. [] The prevalence of VBD is 4.4%, and it is more commonly observed in women. Basilar mid portion shows a saccular aneurysm with hyperdense thrombus in it. However, vertebrobasilar artery dolichoectasia with internuclear . MRI may also assist in differentiating a primary fusiform aneurysm from one that is secondary to arterial dissection, where an intimal flap, wall hematoma, or double lumen may be demonstrated. Stroke 2017;48(9):2361-7. These findings raise the need to develop a better understanding of the pathophysiology of dolichoectasia and how the disease can be prevented or treated. Giant nonsaccular aneurysms can mimic tumors by producing headache, seizures, hydrocephalus, and focal neurologic signs. Sari A, Kandemir S, Kuzeyli K, Dinc H. Giant serpentine aneurysm with acute spontaneous complete thrombosis. Studies not confined to patients with clinical stroke found a prevalence of vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia between 0.8% to 6.5%, whereas a series limited to patients with stroke demonstrated higher prevalences ranging from 3% to 17% (10).
