Gliederung

Text

Objective: Acutely ruptured aneurysms can be treated by coiling or clipping. After coiling the risk of thrombotic complications is reduced by the use of anticoagulative agents, which is not necessary after clipping. The aim of the study is to investigate the rate of ventriculostomy-related hemorrhage after coiling and clipping.

Methods: Between 2009 and 2016 101 patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage were treated with ventriculostomy and clipping (n=55) or coiling (n=46). Their CT scans were investigated retrospectively for ventriculostomy-related hemorrhage. Furthermore the rates of revision surgeries and bacterial ventriculitis were documented.

Results: Ventriculostomy-related hemorrhage was obserevd in 20 of 46 patients after coiling compared to 7 of 55 patients after clipping (ChiSquare test, p<0.001). Revision surgery was indicated in 75% and in 50% of these patients revision surgery was required more than once. In nearly 50% of the patients with ventriculostomy-related hemorrhage an additional bacterial ventriculitis was observed.

Conclusion: Ventriculostomy-related hemorrhage is an underestimated complication following coiling of acutely ruptured aneurysms. It is possible that the clinical course of patients with subarachnoidal hemorrhage is negatively influenced by dysfunction of the ventriculostomy, revision surgeries and bacterial infection.
