摘要：Prompt diagnosis and therapy of aneurysms are critical for patients with nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The aim of our study was to assess the clinical usefulness of multislice computed tomography angiography (CTA) in the surgical and endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms. A total of 195 cases with 206 intracranial aneurysms underwent CTA. Fifty (24%) aneurysms underwent surgical clipping while 156 (76%)aneurysms underwent endovascular coiling. In the five missed aneurysms at digital substraction angiography and the nine aneurysms with mass intracerebral hematomas, surgical treatment was successfully performed based on 16-slice CTA alone, and the other 36 aneurysms were clipped on the main basis of the CTA. The intraoperative findings correlated well with the CTA findings and all aneurysms were clipped successfully. Sixteen-slice CTA image information has been shown to determine the choice of aneurysm therapy and assist the surgical and endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms.
