摘要

Current MR-vessel wall imaging (VWI) of unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs) permits the visualization of wall structures. Aneurysm wall enhancement (AWE) was associated with atherosclerotic remodeling of the aneurysm wall accompanied by infiltration of inflammatory cells, potentially contributing to rupture. This study sought to investigate whether the luminal concentrations of atherosclerotic proteins in the aneurysm sac were associated with increased wall enhancement of UIAs in VWI. Subjects undergoing endovascular treatment for UIAs were prospectively recruited. All subjects underwent evaluation using 3 T-MRI including pre/post contrast VWI of the UIAs. Blood samples were collected from the aneurysm sac and the parent artery during endovascular procedures. The presence of AWE was correlated with the delta difference in concentration between the aneurysm sac and the parent artery for each atherosclerotic protein. A total of consecutive 45 patients with 50 UIAs were enrolled. The delta differences of anti-oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL) antibody, small dense LDL, and lipoprotein(a) Lp(a) were significantly higher in UIAs with AWE compared with those without AWE (767.6 +/- 1957.1 versus - 442.4 +/- 1676.3 mIU/mL, p = 0.02, 114.8 +/- 397.7 versus - 518.5 +/- 1344.4 mu g/mL, p = 0.04, and - 5.6 +/- 11.3 versus - 28.7 +/- 38.5 mu g/mL, p = 0.01, respectively). In multivariate logistic regression analysis, the delta Lp(a) was significantly associated with AWE (p = 0.04). Increased concentrations of atherogenic proteins in the aneurysm sac were significantly associated with wall enhancement of UIAs. Future studies examining the effect of medications for atherosclerosis on the atherogenic proteins within the aneurysm sac and hence the wall enhancement are warranted.
