Anosmia after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhageMarieke J H Wermer
Department of Neurology, Rudolf Magnus Institute of Neuroscience, University Medical Center Utrecht, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Neurosurgery 61:918-22; discussion 922-3. 2007..We studied the prevalence, predisposing factors (aneurysm site and type of treatment), impact, and prognosis of anosmia in patients with SAH...
Yield of short-term follow-up CT/MR angiography for small aneurysms detected at screeningMarieke J H Wermer
Department of Neurology, University Medical Center Utrecht, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Stroke 37:414-8. 2006..Small aneurysms detected at screening may be left untreated and followed over time. The yield of follow-up CT/MR angiography (CTA/MRA) 1 or 2 years after detection to evaluate growth of these aneurysms is unknown...
Effectiveness and costs of screening for aneurysms every 5 years after subarachnoid hemorrhageMarieke J H Wermer
Department of Neurology G03 228, University Medical Center Utrecht, Heidelberglaan 100, 3500 GA Utrecht, The Netherlands
Neurology 70:2053-62. 2008..Patients who survive after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) are at risk for a recurrence despite successful treatment of the ruptured aneurysm and may therefore benefit from screening for new aneurysms...
Subarachnoid hemorrhage treated with clipping: long-term effects on employment, relationships, personality, and moodMarieke J H Wermer
Department of Neurology, Rudolf Magnus Institute of Neuroscience, University Medical Center Utrecht, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Neurosurgery 60:91-7; discussion 97-8. 2007..Despite this recovery, many of these patients experience psychosocial problems. We assessed the long-term effects of SAH on employment, relationships, personality, and mood...
Long-term recurrent subarachnoid hemorrhage after adequate coiling versus clipping of ruptured intracranial aneurysmsJoanna D Schaafsma
Department of Neurology, Rudolf Magnus Institute of Neuroscience, University Medical Center, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Stroke 40:1758-63. 2009..We hypothesized a higher risk for recurrent SAH after adequate coiling compared with clipping...
Growth rates of intracranial aneurysms: exploring constancyHendrik Koffijberg
Julius Center for Health Sciences and Primary Care, University Medical Center Utrecht, The Netherlands
J Neurosurg 109:176-85. 2008..Recent case reports have suggested that aneurysms grow fast in a short period of time. The authors of the present report investigated the plausibility of a constant growth rate for intracranial aneurysms...
Multislice computed tomography angiography screening for new aneurysms in patients with previously clip-treated intracranial aneurysms: Feasibility, positive predictive value, and interobserver agreementIrene C van der Schaaf
Department of Radiology, University Medical Center Utrecht, The Netherlands
J Neurosurg 105:682-8. 2006..However, cobalt clips produce much more artifact on CT scans than titanium clips, which may hamper the evaluation of the image obtained at the clip site...
Optimal screening strategy for familial intracranial aneurysms: a cost-effectiveness analysisA Stijntje E Bor
Department of Neurology, Rudolf Magnus Institute of Neuroscience, University Medical Centre Utrecht, GA Utrecht, The Netherlands
Neurology 74:1671-9. 2010..Screening such individuals for intracranial aneurysms is advocated, but its effectiveness and cost-effectiveness are unknown, as are the optimal age ranges and interval for screening...
Risk of rupture of unruptured intracranial aneurysms in relation to patient and aneurysm characteristics: an updated meta-analysisMarieke J H Wermer
Department of Neurology, University Medical Center Utrecht, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Stroke 38:1404-10. 2007..We updated our previous review from 1996 on the risk of rupture of unruptured intracranial aneurysms, aiming to include the newly published articles...
Incidence of recurrent subarachnoid hemorrhage after clipping for ruptured intracranial aneurysmsMarieke J H Wermer
Department of Neurology, Rudolf Magnus Institute of Neuroscience, University Medical Center, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Stroke 36:2394-9. 2005..We studied the incidence of and risk factors for recurrent SAH in patients who regained independence after SAH and in whom all aneurysms were occluded by means of clipping...
Repeated screening for intracranial aneurysms in familial subarachnoid hemorrhageMarieke J H Wermer
Department of Neurology, Rudolf Magnus Institute of Neuroscience, University Medical Center Utrecht, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Stroke 34:2788-91. 2003..The benefit of repeated screening and the interval at which screening should be performed are unknown. We studied patient compliance and the yield of repeated screening for familial intracranial aneurysms...
Late recurrence of subarachnoid hemorrhage after treatment for ruptured aneurysms: patient characteristics and outcomesMarieke J H Wermer
Department of Neurology, Rudolf Magnus Institute of Neuroscience, University Medical Center Utrecht, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Neurosurgery 56:197-204; discussion 197-204. 2005..We assessed the characteristics, complications of re-treatment, and outcomes of patients with recurrent SAH as important factors in determining whether to screen patients for new aneurysms...
Relationship between vasospasm, cerebral perfusion, and delayed cerebral ischemia after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhageJan W Dankbaar
Department of Radiology HP E01 132, University Medical Center, P O Box 85500, 3508 GA, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Neuroradiology 51:813-9. 2009..To evaluate the contribution of vasospasm to delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), we investigated the effect of vasospasm on cerebral perfusion and the relationship of vasospasm with DCI...
Direct costs of surgical clipping and endovascular coiling of unruptured intracranial aneurysmsPatricia H A Halkes
Department of Neurology, University Medical Centre Utrecht, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Cerebrovasc Dis 22:40-5. 2006..Unruptured intracranial aneurysms can be preventively treated by surgical clipping or endovascular coiling. We determined in detail the costs of these treatments...
