目的 探讨载瘤动脉近远端直径差异度与血流导向装置(flow-diverter devices,FD)术后支架内狭窄(in-stent stenosis,ISS)发生率之 间的关联。 方法 本研究基于国内6家高级卒中中心前瞻性维护的数据库进行回顾性分析。纳入2020年1月至2024年1月期间接受Pipeline或Tubridge血流导向装置治疗的患者。采用渐进式协变量调整的多因素logistic回归模型及限制性立方样条(restricted cubic spline,RCS)曲线分析载瘤动脉近远端直径差异度(arterial diameter difference, ADD)与术后6个月造影随访中植入后ISS发生的关系;以显著狭窄作为替代结局进行敏感性分析;通过分层分析探讨ADD对ISS的影响在不同特征人群中是否存在差异。 结果 最终共有439例患者符合纳排标准,年龄(53.5 ± 10.5)岁。术后6个月随访显示,动脉瘤完全闭塞率和ISS发生率分别为81.8%和15.0%。多因素分析表明,ADD每增加一个单位,ISS发生风险增加约2倍(OR = 2.416,95%CI:1.528 ~ 3.821,P < 0.001)。敏感性分析显示的结果一致且亚组分析未发现不同人群之间存在显著差异。RCS曲线提示当ADD超过0.30时,ISS及显著狭窄的发生风险均显著上升。 结论 ADD是FD术后发生ISS的独立危险因素,较高的ADD与FD术后ISS风险增加相关。

Objective To investigate the association between arterial diameter discrepancy (ADD) and the incidence of in-stent stenosis (ISS) following flow diverter (FD) placement. Methods This retrospective analysis utilized data from a prospectively maintained multicenter registry across six advanced stroke centers in China. Patients who underwent FD treatment with the Pipeline Embolization Device (PED) or Tubridge Flow Diverter (TFD) between January 2020 and January 2024 were enrolled. Multivariable logistic regression models with progressive covariate adjustment and restricted cubic spline (RCS) analyses were used to evaluate the association between ADD and ISS at the 6-month angiographic follow-up. Sensitivity analyses assessed significant ISS as a secondary outcome. Subgroup analyses were performed to determine whether the association varied across patient characteristics. Results A total of 439 patients were included (53.5 ± 10.5) years. At the 6-month follow-up, the rates of complete aneurysm occlusion and ISS were 81.8% and 15.0%, respectively. Multivariable analysis revealed that each unit increase in ADD was associated with a 2.4-fold increase in the odds of ISS (OR = 2.42, 95% CI: 1.53 ~ 3.82, P < 0.001). These findings remained robust in sensitivity analyses. Subgroup analyses showed no significant effect modification across patient characteristics. RCS analysis demonstrated a threshold effect, with the risk of both ISS and significant ISS increasing markedly when ADD exceeded 0.30. Conclusions Higher arterial diameter discrepancy is independently associated with an increased risk of ISS following FD placement. These findings may aid neurointerventionalists in preprocedural risk stratification and device selection, highlighting the potential clinical value of tapered FDs for treating vessels with significant diameter mismatches.
