Background: Cavernous carotid aneurysms (CCAs) are characterized by pain and neuro-ophthalmologic deficits. The optimal treatment remains unclear, especially for asymptomatic CCAs. This study investigated the efficacy of endovascular treatment for CCAs in our center. Methods: Data obtained from patients who underwent endovascular treatment for CCAs from July 2011 to July 2014 were reviewed. A retrospective analysis was conducted regarding the general condition, clinical presentation, aneurysm characteristics, therapeutic strategy, and prognosis of CCA patients. Results: One hundred forty-seven patients who exhibited 155 CCAs were included, which comprised 46 asymptomatic and 101 symptomatic CCA cases. Forty-eight cases presented with headache, 5 cases presented with subarachnoid hemorrhage, 20 cases presented with diplopia, 38 cases presented with cranial nerve palsy, and 27 cases presented with ischemic stroke. The mean aneurysm sizes were 15.3 +/- 12.2 and 8.1 +/- 7.1 mm in the symptomatic and asymptomatic groups, respectively. Different treatments were administered: coil occlusion (n = 15), stent/balloon-assisted coil occlusion (n = 123), and parent artery occlusion (PAO) (n = 17). The PAO-treated group exhibited the highest aneurysm occlusion rate. Followup data were available for 131 cases, which included 86 symptomatic and 45 asymptomatic cases. There were no deaths. Among the symptomatic patients, 40.7% improved, 58.1% remained stable, and 1.2% worsened; 12 patients exhibited regrowth and 6 patients had repeated endovascular treatment. The asymptomatic patients remained stable, including 5 patients who exhibited regrowth and 2 patients who had repeated endovascular treatment. Conclusion: Endovascular treatment is safe and effective for CCAs and should be considered in patients with minimal complications, as well as in asymptomatic patients with stable symptoms.
