Endovascular treatment is widely applied as the first-line treatment for intracranial aneurysms and includes simple coiling (SC), stent-assisted coiling (SAC), flow diversion stent, and flow disruption stent. The present study is a retrospective cohort study performed in Imam Khomeini Hospital, Department of Neurovascular Intervention, between March 2016 and March 2021. A total number of 229 patients with intracranial aneurysms who underwent therapeutic intravascular interventions were enrolled, of which 89 were treated with SC, 111 with SAC, 25 with flow diversion stent, and 4 with flow disruption stent. The mean age of the subjects was 51.8±12.6 years, and 51.1% were male. Modified Raymond-Roy classification (MRRC) was used to define the occlusion outcome. The success rate, considered as Class I and Class II of MRRC at treatment time was 89% (94.4% in SC, and 84.7% in SAC), which was increased to 90.9% (94% in SC, 93% in SAC, 69.6% in flow diversion stenting, 100% in flow disruption) at 6-month follow-up, and 84.6% (80.8% in SC, 87.8% in SAC, 78.3% in flow diversion stenting, and 100% in flow disruption) at 12-month follow-up. The mean modified Rankin Scale (mRS) before the procedure was 0.05±0.26 which was increased to 0.22±0.76 after the procedure, 0.22±0.76 at 6 months, and 0.30±0.95 at 12 months (P<0.001). Similar to previous studies, the present study demonstrates that neurovascular intervention can treat ruptured aneurysms as the first therapeutic modality with favourable outcomes. A double-blind, randomized clinical trial is needed to eliminate the confounding factors and better demonstrate the outcome.

PURPOSE: To systematically review published studies on the pregnancy rate and outcomes after uterine artery embolization (UAE) for uterine arteriovenous malformations (UAVMs). MATERIALS AND METHODS: International medical databases were searched for all English-language studies published between 2000 and 2022 on patients with UAVMs who had undergone embolization and had a subsequent pregnancy. Data on the pregnancy rate, pregnancy complications, and physiologic status of newborns were extracted from the articles. Ten case series were included in the meta-analysis, and 18 case reports on pregnancy following UAE were reviewed. RESULTS: In the case series, 44 pregnancies were reported in 189 patients. The pooled estimate of pregnancy rate was 23.3% (95% confidence interval [CI], 17.3%-29.3%). The pregnancy rate was higher in studies of women with a mean age of ≤30 years (50.6% vs 22.2%; P < .05). The pooled estimate of live birth rate was 88.6% (95% CI, 78.6%-98.7%). CONCLUSIONS: All published series report preservation of fertility and successful pregnancies after embolization of UAVMs. The live birth rate in these series does not differ substantially from that of the general population.
