Resumen

Se presenta el caso clínico de un paciente joven con una hemorragia subaracnoidea bien tolerada clínicamente secundaria a la rotura de un aneurisma carotídeo tipo «blíster». Teniendo en cuenta que estos aneurismas son poco frecuentes, tienen paredes muy frágiles y sin un cuello definido, su tratamiento es controvertido. Inicialmente se planteó el abordaje endovascular mediante la implantación de una endoprótesis semicubierta redireccionadora de flujo, pero la evolución morfológica del aneurisma a los 10 días condicionó un cambio en el plan terapéutico. Finalmente se implantó una endoprótesis convencional cubriendo el cuello y se introdujeron 2 microcoils en el punto de rotura, con buen resultado morfológico. El paciente evolucionó de manera satisfactoria. En el seguimiento después de uno y 6 meses se demostró la estabilidad del tratamiento. Se realiza una breve introducción a esta patología y una pequeña discusión sobre las distintas opciones terapéuticas.

Abstract

We report the case of a young patient with subarachnoid haemorrhage secondary to a ruptured blister-like aneurysm. Since this kind of aneurysms have fragile walls without a well-defined neck, their treatment is difficult. We initially planned the deployment of a flow-diverter stent, but an angiogram obtained after 10 days revealed a morphological change of the aneurysm. Therefore, we finally deployed a conventional stent and introduced 2 micro coils into the point of rupture, obtaining a good morphological result without rebleeding. Follow-up at 1 and 6 months did not observe regrowth of the aneurysm. We offer a brief introduction and discussion of this pathology and its treatment.
