Ⅰ.はじめに
後下小脳動脈瘤(posterior inferior cerebellar artery aneurysm:PICA AN)は全脳動脈瘤の0.49〜3%を占め18),比較的稀なものと考えられる.その約2/3は椎骨動脈—後下小脳動脈分岐部動脈瘤(vertebral artery-posterior inferior cerebellar artery aneurysm:VA-PICA AN)であり5,12),さらにその末梢に生じた後下小脳動脈瘤(distal PICA AN)は少ない.加えて,distal PICA ANの発生部位は解剖学的特徴から5つのsegmentに分類され13),脳幹部への穿通枝の有無によって治療方法も異なる.今回われわれは,2例のcortical segmentに発生したdistal PICA ANの破裂例を経験したので,その臨床的特徴,診断と治療方法,予後について検討し,文献的考察を加えて報告する.
Two unusual cases of ruptured distal posterior inferior cerebellar artery(PICA)aneurysm on the cortical segment were successfully treated with open surgery. A 76-year-old woman presented with a Hunt and Kosnik(H&K)grade II Subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH). CT showed a slight SAH in the cisterna magna and around the vermis, and fourth intraventricular hematoma. Cerebral angiography revealed an aneurysm on the cortical segment of the distal PICA. Intraoperative findings identified the aneurysm as fusiform. Trapping of the aneurysm was performed, and the indocyanine green angiography fiuding confirmed aneurysmal flow disappearance and good circulation in the cerebellar cortex. An 89-year-old woman presented with H&K grade II SAH. CT revealed a thick SAH in the posterior cranial fossa, and third to fourth intraventricular hematoma with hydrocephalus. Cerebral angiography revealed an aneurysm on the cortical segment of the distal PICA. Intraoperative findings showed that the aneurysm was fusiform. Trapping and resection of the aneurysm were performed. Thirteen previous cases of aneurysms on the cortical segment of the distal PICA have been reported. Distal PICA aneurysms apparently show rebleeding more frequently than do aneurysms at other locations, so immediate direct surgery is necessary to avoid rebleeding. After proximal ligation or trapping of the aneurysm, indocyanine green angiography is useful to determine the need for revascularization.
