What to do about the sequelae of aneurysmal bone cyst

Diseases such as cerebral aneurysms can be treated through surgery, but some people with this type of disease may have sequelae after treatment. Let's take a look at what to do about the sequelae of aneurysmal bone cysts.

The sequelae of aneurysmal bone cyst must be treated in time. The treatment is decided based on the patient's specific situation, because different patients have different symptoms. The most common treatments are medication and surgery, but you must also pay attention to rest during the treatment.

How to examine an aneurysmal bone cyst?

1. Routine blood test, erythrocyte sedimentation rate and urine routine test: Generally, there are no specific changes. In the early stage of aneurysm rupture and bleeding, the white blood cell count often exceeds 10×109/L, and the erythrocyte sedimentation rate is often slightly to moderately increased, and the degree of increase is consistent with the degree of increase in the white blood cell count. Proteinuria and glycosuria may appear in the early stage. In severe cases, tubular urine may appear. Proteinuria lasts for a short time and generally returns to normal after a few days.

2. Lumbar puncture: When the aneurysm has not ruptured, there are usually no abnormal changes in the cerebrospinal fluid examination during lumbar puncture. When the aneurysm ruptures and bleeds, lumbar puncture is the direct evidence for diagnosing subarachnoid hemorrhage after aneurysm rupture.

3. Biochemical examination of cerebrospinal fluid: sugar and chloride are mostly normal, protein is increased, this is due to the release of a large amount of hemoglobin after red blood cell lysis and the exudative reaction after bleeding, usually around 1g/L. Some people believe that the protein level can increase by 150mg/L for every 10,000 red blood cells lysed in the cerebrospinal fluid. Generally, the protein level increases the most 8 to 10 days after bleeding, and then gradually decreases. In addition, attention should be paid to distinguish bloody cerebrospinal fluid caused by lumbar puncture injury. Generally, the upper layer of bloody cerebrospinal fluid caused by lumbar puncture injury does not change to red or yellow after centrifugation, and has no positive reaction to benzidine.

Therefore, if you encounter this disease, you must treat it according to the methods introduced by the doctor. If there are sequelae, you must seek treatment as soon as possible, which will help the patient's physical recovery.
