Abstract

Objective

Patient with carotid blowout syndrome (CBS) may demonstrated non-bleeding digital subtraction angiography (DSA) without identifying pseudoaneurysm or contrast extravasation. Our objective is to evaluate the clinical outcomes for this specific subset of patients.

Materials and Methods

A retrospective observational study was conducted on 172 CBS patients who received DSA for evaluation of transarterial embolization (TAE) between 2005 and 2022, of whom 19 patients had non-bleeding DSA and did not undergo TAE.

Results

The age (55.2 ± 7.3 vs. 54.8 ± 11.1), male sex (17/19 vs. 135/153), tumor size (5.6 ± 2.4 vs. 5.2 ± 2.2), cancer locations were similar (P > 0.05) between both groups; except for there were more pseudoaneurysm/active bleeding (85.6% vs. 0%) and less vascular irregularity (14.4% vs. 94.7%) in the TAE group (P < 0.001). In the multivariable Cox regression model adjusting for age, sex, and tumor size, non-bleeding DSA group was independently associated with recurrent bleeding compared to TAE group (adjusted hazard ratio = 3.5, 95% confidence interval: 1.9–6.4, P < 0.001). Furthermore, the presence of vascular irregularity was associated with segmental recurrent bleeding (adjusted HR = 8.0, 95% CI 2.7–23.3, P < 0.001).

Conclusion

Patient showing non-bleeding DSA thus not having TAE had higher risk of recurrent bleeding, compared to patient who received TAE.

Neu im Fachgebiet Radiologie

Ab sofort gelten die neuen Verordnungsausnahmen für Lipidsenker

Freie Fahrt für Lipidsenker? Das nicht, doch mit niedrigerem Schwellenwert fürs Infarktrisiko und neuen Indikationen hat der G-BA die Verordnungs-Handbremse ein gutes Stück weit gelockert.

Abdominale CT bei Kindern: 40% mit Zufallsbefunden

Wird bei Kindern mit stumpfem Trauma eine CT des Bauchraums veranlasst, sind in rund 40% der Fälle Auffälligkeiten zu sehen, die nichts mit dem Trauma zu tun haben. Die allerwenigsten davon sind klinisch relevant.

Genügt die biparametrische MRT für die Prostatadiagnostik?

Die multiparametrische Magnetresonanztomografie hat einen festen Platz im Screening auf klinisch signifikante Prostatakarzinome. Ob auch ein biparametrisches Vorgehen ausreicht, ist in einer Metaanalyse untersucht worden.

Höhere Trefferquoten bei Brustkrebsscreening dank KI?

Künstliche Intelligenz unterstützt bei der Auswertung von Mammografie-Screenings und senkt somit den Arbeitsaufwand für Radiologen. Wie wirken sich diese Technologien auf die Trefferquote und die Falsch-positiv-Rate aus? Das hat jetzt eine Studie aus Schweden untersucht.
