Abstract

Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) is a rare complication that can occur when conducting stent insertion or endarterectomy in patients with carotid artery stenosis and is known to be caused by various mechanisms when the blood volume abruptly increases. The main clinical symptoms are unilateral headache, hypertension, seizure, and focal neurologic deficit. Subarachnoid hemorrhage and parenchymal hemorrhage may lead to permanent impairment or death in severe cases. CHS can be predicted by using transcranial Doppler, perfusion magnetic resonance imaging, and single photon emission computed tomography. In our case report, a patient developed CHS subsequent to significant venous congestion caused by carotid artery stent insertion. The patient had preexisting, symptomatic bilateral carotid artery stenosis. Venous congestion occurs when the direction of blood flow changes because of increased blood volume in patients with well-developed collateral vessels. We believe that CHS can be predicted from this finding. This study reports the possibility that CHS could be confirmed by cerebral angiography after insertion of the internal carotid stent.

뇌과관류증후군은 경동맥 스텐트 삽입술 또는 내막 절제술 시행 시 발생할 수 있는 드문 합병증으로 대사 요구량보다 관류가 더 많은 상태를 유발하는 다양한 기전에 의해 발생한다. 주 임상 증상은 편측성 두통, 고혈압, 발작 및 국소 신경계 결손이 있으며, 심한 경우 지주막하 출혈 및 뇌실질 출혈로 영구적 장애 또는 사망까지 유발할 수 있다. 일반적으로 뇌과관류증후군은 두개경유도플러, 관류 뇌자기공명영상 및 단일광자방출컴퓨터단층촬영으로 진단할 수 있다. 저자들의 연구에서는 내경동맥 스텐트 이후 확인한 혈관조영술에서 의미있는 정맥울혈 증상을 보여 뇌과관류증후군을 진단할 수 있었다. 환자는 증상성 양쪽 내경동맥 협착을 보이고 있었고, 협착으로 인해 곁순환 동맥들이 잘 발달하게 되었다. 이렇게 곁순환 동맥이 잘 발달된 상태에서 환자에게 내경동맥 스텐트를 삽입한 이후 대뇌 혈류량이 증가되며 혈류의 방향이 바뀌어 정맥 울혈이 생길 수 있으며, 경동맥 스텐트 삽입술 또는 내막 절제술 시행 이후 정맥울혈이 보일 시 뇌과관류증후군을 예측할 수 있다. 이 연구는 내경동맥 스텐트 삽입 후 바로 시행하는 혈관 조영술을 통해서 뇌과관류증후군을 확진할 수 있음을 보여준 1례의 보고이다.
