  • Application of subclavian-carotid transposition to patients with proximal subclavian artery occlusion unable to be intervened

    ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy of subclavian-carotid transposition (SCT) in treating patients with proximal subclavian artery occlusive diseases who were unable to be intervened, such as failure of intervention, congenital malformation and unwillingness to intervention.MethodsA retrospective review of 19 patients with proximal subclavian artery occlusion who underwent SCT from May 2016 to December 2018 was done. There were 14 males and 5 females with an average age of 54.05±17.34 years. The advantages and disadvantages of SCT in the treatment of proximal subclavian artery occlusion were analyzed.ResultsAll patients achieved immediate remission of symptoms after surgery. The stenosis degree of the proximal subclavian artery decreased from 100.0%±0.0% to 12.7%±10.1% after surgery. The average blood pressure difference between the unaffected side and the affected side decreased from 11.95±10.60 mm Hg to 0.89±5.75 mm Hg (P<0.01). Peripheral nerve injury occurred in 7 (36.8%) patients. The in-patient cost of subclavian artery occlusion patients who received subclavian artery interventional therapy in our hospital during the corresponding period was 3 392.12 yuan higher than that of the SCT group in average (if eliminating the patients whose cost was far from the average value, the cost of interventional therapy was 4 812.01 yuan higher than that of the SCT group in average). During 1-3 years' follow-up, 6 patients with neurological complication relieved. One- and three-year patency rates were 100.0%. No perioperative stroke, death or re-operation happened.ConclusionSCT is an ideal process for the patients with subclavian artery occlusion who cannot accept subclavian artery interventional therapy.

  • Modified vertebral-carotid transposition treating stenosis at V1 segment of vertebral artery

    ObjectiveTo investigate the treatment of modified vertebral-carotid transposition (VCT) in patients with severe stenosis or occlusion at V1 segment of vertebral artery.MethodsA retrospective study of 13 patients with severe stenosis or occlusion at V1 segment of vertebral artery treated by modified VCT in our hospital from October 2016 to December 2018 was done. There were 10 males and 3 females with an average age of 70.5±7.1 years.ResultsThe operation was successful in this series of patients. The follow-up duration was 1-3 years. The stenosis degree of the V1 segment of the vertebral artery decreased from 86.8%±7.5% to 17.4%±14.5%. All patients achieved remission of symptoms after the surgery. Temporary peripheral nerve injury occurred in 6 patients. Four patients with neurological complications relieved during follow-up. The patency rate was 100.0% at postoperative 1 and 3 years. There was no perioperative death, stroke or re-intervention.ConclusionModified VCT can precisely restore the distal blood flow of patients with severe stenosis or occlusion at V1 segment of vertebral artery, and relieve their symptoms.

  • Carotid endarterectomy combined with vertebral artery transposition treating vertebral artery V1 segment stenosis combined with ipsilateral carotid artery stenosis

    ObjectiveTo explore the treatment outcome of carotid endarterectomy combined with vertebral artery transposition in patients with severe stenosis to occlusion of the vertebral artery V1 segment and the ipsilateral carotid artery.MethodsFrom June 2017 to September 2020, patients with severe stenosis to occlusion of the vertebral artery V1 segment and the ipsilateral carotid artery treated with carotid endarterectomy combined with vertebral artery transposition in Fuwai Hospital were retrospectively analyzed.ResultsFinally 12 patients were enrolled, including 10 males and 2 females with an average age of 67.8±6.0 years. Twelve patients were successfully operated and the follow-up time was 1-3 years. The stenosis degree of the V1 segment of the vertebral artery decreased from 83.5%±11.8% to 24.9%±14.3% (P<0.001). The stenosis degree of carotid artery decreased from 85.6%±11.0% to 0% (P<0.001). Postoperative follow-up showed that the symptoms of symptomatic patients before surgery improved. The 1-year and 3-year patency rates were 100.0%, and there were no peripheral nerve injury complications, perioperative deaths or strokes.ConclusionCarotid endarterectomy combined with vertebral artery transposition can treat ipsilateral carotid artery stenosis and vertebral artery stenosis at the same time, improve blood supply to the brain, improve patients' symptoms and has high promotion value.
