摘要:

目的 描述卵圆孔未闭(patent foramen ovale,PFO)造成反常性栓塞(paradoxical embolism,PE)的临 床表现、影像学特点。验证反常性栓塞风险量表(Risk of Paradoxical Embolism,RoPE)评分。 方法 本研究为单中心观察性研究,连续性入选2013年1月~2014年6月首都医科大学附属北京天 坛医院神经科收治的隐源性卒中或短暂性脑缺血发作(transient ischemic attack,TIA)患者79例,其 中经经颅多普勒超声发泡试验(contrast-enhanced transcranial Doppler,cTCD)和经食管超声心动图 (transesophageal echocardiography,TEE)确诊合并PFO的患者44例,其中37例为PFO所致PE,7例仅合并 PFO无栓塞症状。由另一名神经科医师盲法评价颅脑磁共振成像,确定其影像学的特点,收集两组 患者的人口学信息,临床资料,相关辅助检查(如cTCD、TEE、颈部血管超声及双下肢静脉超声结果), 计算并比较两组RoPE评分情况。PFO所致PE患者根据PFO大小分为3组,依据右向左分流量(rightto- left shunt,RLS)大小分为3组。比较不同PFO大小和不同RLS患者之间的临床和影像学特点,并评 估不同PFO大小和不同RLS之间的关联性及RoPE评分与PFO的大小和RLS的严重程度之间的关系。 结果 两组的RoPE评分分别为5(4.5,7.0)和6(4.0,8.0),差异无显著性(P>0.05)。合并颈内 动脉重度狭窄或闭塞,高度提示非PFO相关缺血性卒中(P<0.01)。小PFO组(<2 mm)和中/大PFO组 (≥2 mm)相比较,两组的RoPE评分分别为(5.5±1.9 vs 6.3±2.0,P>0.05),后者更容易累及后循 环。不同RLS患者之间相比较,3组的RoPE评分分别为(5.4±1.7,6.5±2.7,5.8±2.0,P>0.05)。PFO 大小和RLS之间无显著性相关(r =0.031,P>0.05)。 结论 PFO和脑梗死的关系可以分为:无相关性(即PFO合并存在)或有相关性(即PE),PE的影像学 特点和PFO大小有一定的相关性。RoPE可能有助于进一步区分PFO的大小和RLS的严重程度。

Abstract:

Objective To describe the clinical and image features of paradoxical embolism due to patent foramen ovale (PFO), and to evaluate the Risk of Paradoxical Embolism (RoPE) score. Methods We retrospectively investigated consecutive patients who were suspected to be paradoxical embolism and having PFO admitted to one stroke center in this observational study. PFO was determined by means of TCD salt injection test (contrast-enhanced transcranial Doppler, cTCD) and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). Demographic data, clinical features, the results of cTCD, TEE and comprehensive compress ultrasound of deep venous in bilateral lower limbs were retrieved with case report form by a neurologist. The patients were divided into 3 groups according to the size of PFO or to the amount of right-to-left shunt. The MRI was evaluated by another neurologist with blinding to the results of cTCD or TEE. PFO was determined to be related to stroke or just by chance after discussing with consultants. The RoPE score and the imaging features were compared within the groups. The relationship between the size of PFO and the amount of RLS was also examined. Results From Jan. 2013 to Jun. 2014, we recruited 79 adult patients with suspected paradoxical embolism. PFO was positive in 44 patients by both cTCD and TEE. After routine consultation, PFO was determined to be causal in the paradoxical embolism in 37 patients and unrelated to stroke in 7 patients. The RoPE scores were 5 (4.5, 7.0) and 6 (4.0, 8.0) respectively and there was no significant difference. Severe stenosis or occlusion in internal carotid artery was more frequent in the group of ischemic stroke with other reasons. The RoPE scores were (5.5±1.9) for PFO <2 mm and (6.3±2.0) for PFO 2 mm, there was no significant difference between them. The percentage of post-circulation infarction in PFO <2 mm group was less than that in PFO 2 mm (P <0.05) . In the groups by the amount of RLS (1~9 microbubbles, 10~20 microbubbles or >20 microbubbles), the RoPE scores were 5.4±1.7, 6.5±2.7, 5.8±2.0 respectively and were different with no significance. The relationship between the size of PFO and the amount of RLS was tested to be no statistical difference. Conclusion PFO can be causal or unrelated to ischemic stroke. The imaging features might give some clues concerning the size of PFO and the amount of RLS. The RoPE score might provide further information to guide clinical decision.
