Prognosis of acute tandem vertebrobasilar artery occlusion after endovascular revascularization: report of 647 cases
To analyze the prognosis and risk factors of acute tandem vertebrobasilar artery occlusion (VBO) after endovascular therapy (EVT).
Methods
2
This study used the patient data from the EVT for Acute Basilar Artery Occlusion Study (BASILAR)
a national multicenter clinical registry study for endovascular treatment of acute basilar artery occlusion from January 2014 to May 2019. All patients received intravascular treatment and underwent a 90 d follow-up. According to the presence of vertebral artery and basilar artery occlusion
they were divided into vertebral basilar artery occlusion (VBO) group and acute basilar artery occlusion (BAO) group. Their baseline indicators were analyzed to explore the differences in prognosis and influencing factors between the 2 groups.
Results
2
A total of 647 eligible patients were included in this study
with a median age of 64 (56
74) years
and 74.7% of them (483) were males. Among them
560 patients had simple basilar artery occlusion and the other 87 had basilar artery occlusion combined with severe stenosis or occlusion of the vertebral artery. There were no significant differences in the 90-day good prognosis rate (defined as mRS score of 0~3) (
P
=0.090) and mortality rate (
P
=0.890) between the VBO group and the BAO group. For the patients in the VBO group
lower NIHSS score (
OR=
0.898
95%
CI
: 0.845~0.954
P
<
0.001)
higher pc-ASPECTS score (
OR=
1.690
95%
CI
: 1.117~2.557
P
=0.010)
and shorter puncture to recanalization time (
OR=
0.990
95%
CI
: 0.980~1.000
P
=0.047) were independent risk factors for 90-day good prognosis. Similarly
higher NIHSS score (
OR
=1.094
95%
CI
: 1.033~1.159
P
=0.002)
lower pc-ASPECTS score (
OR
=0.622
95%
CI
: 0.438~0.882
P
=0.008) and longer puncture to recanalization time (
OR
=1.010
95%
CI
: 1.001~1.019
P
=0.040) were also predictive factors for 90-day mortality in these patients.
Conclusion
2
EVT is safe and effective for acute VBO
with a good short-term prognosis. NIHSS score
pc-ASPECTS score
and puncture to recanalization time are independent predictors for 90-day good prognosis in VBO patients
and are also predictors of 90-day mortality rate.
