What this trial studies

This observational study focuses on patients diagnosed with intracranial vertebral artery dissecting aneurysms (IVADA) who underwent endovascular blood reconstructive treatment at Qilu Hospital of Shandong University from December 2011 to December 2022. It aims to assess the effectiveness of various endovascular techniques, including conventional stents and flow diverters, while recording patient demographics, clinical presentations, and treatment outcomes. The study evaluates the optimal treatment strategy based on neurological conditions, comorbidities, and the anatomical features of the aneurysm. Data collected will help inform future treatment approaches for IVADA patients.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include patients with asymptomatic or subarachnoid hemorrhage symptoms related to IVADA confirmed by angiography.

Not a fit: Patients with SAH due to trauma or other cerebrovascular diseases, or those with extracranial vertebral artery involvement, will not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could improve treatment outcomes and reduce complications for patients with IVADA.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown success with endovascular techniques for treating similar conditions, indicating a promising approach.
