Item Long-term clinical and angiographic follow-up results of the dual-layer flow diverter device (FRED) for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms in a multicenter study(2021) Dinc, Hasan; Saatci, Isil; Oguz, Sukru; Baltacioglu, Feyyaz; Yildiz, Altan; Donmez, Halil; Belet, Umit; Onal, Baran; Andic, Cagatay; Koc, Osman; Kocak, Omer; Koroglu, Mert; Cetin, Mustafa; Cekirge, H. Saruhan; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8581-8685; 33392735; AAM-3180-2021Purpose Our aim was to determine the long-term safety and efficacy of the Flow Re-Direction Endoluminal Device (FRED) in this multicenter study with prospective design. Materials-method This study included 136 consecutive patients with 155 aneurysms treated between March 2013 and June 2016 in 10 centers. Twenty-two (16.2%) patients presented with rupture of the index aneurysm. Large/giant aneurysms comprised 1/3 of the cohort. Adjuvant coil use during the treatment was 15.5%. The effectiveness measure in the study was the percentage of aneurysms with stable occlusion at follow-up. Results Vascular imaging follow-up was performed at least once in 131/136 (96.3%) patients with 148/155 (95.5%) aneurysms up to 75 months (mean: 37.3 months; median: 36 months according to latest follow-up), and 102/155(65.8%) aneurysms in 90/136 (66.2%) patients had >= 24-month control. According to the latest controls, the overall stable occlusion rate was 91.9% (95% CI, 87.5 to 96.3%). Three out of 148 aneurysms with follow-up were retreated (2%, 95% CI 0.0 to 4.3%). Adverse events were noted in 19/136 (14%, 95% CI, 9 to 21%) patients with a morbidity of 1.5% (95% CI, 0.0 to 3.5%). Mortality was 1/136 (0.7%, 95% CI, 0.02 to 2.2%) and was unrelated to aneurysm treatment. In-stent stenosis (ISS) was detected in 10/131 of the patients with follow-up (7.6%, 95% CI; 3.1 to 12.2%), only one being symptomatic. No adverse events have occurred in any of the patients with follow-up after 24 months, except the one resulting from ISS. Conclusion In the treatment of cerebral aneurysms which were candidates for flow diversion technique, this study showed long-term efficacy of FRED with good safety and occlusion rates.Item Comparison of Sedoanalgesia Versus Ultrasound-Guided Supraclavicular Brachial Plexus Block for the Prevention of the Pain During Endovascular Treatment of Dysfunctional Hemodialysis Fistulas(2019) Gedikoglu, Murat; Andic, Cagatay; Guzelmansur, Ismail; Eker, Hatice Evren; Bolgen, Cagatay; 31342099Purpose Although intravenous sedation and analgesia have been widely used as a first choice to relieve pain during treatment of dysfunctional hemodialysis fistulas by interventional radiology, the sedoanalgesic drugs have a considerable risk of respiratory depression, especially in hemodialysis patients. In this study, we compared the utility and efficiency of ultrasound-guided supraclavicular brachial plexus block versus sedoanalgesia for the prevention of pain during endovascular treatment of dysfunctional hemodialysis fistulas Materials and Methods Patients were randomized into two groups: ultrasound-guided supraclavicular brachial plexus block (n = 34) or sedoanalgesia group (n = 34). A visual analogue scale from no pain (= 0) to worst pain possible (= 10) was used to assess the pain intensity. Patient and operator satisfaction were graded from 0 to 2: 0, not satisfied at all; 1, partially satisfied; 2, satisfied (very well or complete satisfaction). Both groups were compared in terms of pain scores, patient and operator satisfaction as well as complications. Results The median pain score was significantly lower in the block group compared to the sedoanalgesia group, 0 (0-4) versus 6 (2-10), p = 0.0001. Patient satisfaction and operator satisfaction were significantly higher in the block group than in the sedoanalgesia group (p = 0.0001). Severe oxygen desaturation occurred in five (14.7%) patients following the administration of sedoanalgesia. No side effects or complications related to block procedure occurred in any patient. Conclusion Ultrasound-guided supraclavicular brachial plexus block has advantages over the sedoanalgesia during endovascular treatment of dysfunctional hemodialysis fistulas. It can provide safe and efficient analgesia with excellent procedural satisfaction in adult hemodialysis patients.Item Endovascular Treatment of a Patient with Moyamoya Disease and Seckel Syndrome: A Case Report(2018) Andic, Cagatay; Gunesli, Aylin; Alkan, Ozlem; Erol, Ilknur; Suner, Halil Ibrahim; 30090148Seckel syndrome and Moyamoya diseases are different entities that rarely associated with each other. Several cases presenting with both these diseases were reported. Intracerebral artery aneurysms and collateral vessels can be seen with Moyamoya. They are commonly treated with medical treatment. We present a 12-years old patient with both Seckel syndrome and Moyamoya disease presented with middle cerebral artery aneurysm which was treated with endovascular modalities.
