Abstract: Objective To explore the applicative value of three-dimensional digital subtraction angiography (3D-DSA) in diagnosing aneurysm and infundibular dilation (ID) originating from the posterior communicating artery. Methods A total of 47 patients with vascular lesions originating from the posterior communicating artery were analyzed retrospectively. All patients had undergone angiography with both conventional DSA (2D-DSA) and 3D-DSA, and the results were analyzed by two doctors. Results Altogether 26 aneurysms and 6 IDs were found by 2D-DSA, while 33 aneurysms and 14 IDs were detected by 3D-DSA, with a statistical significance between the detection rates (χ2=19.03, P<0.05). There was a statistical difference in displaying the relationship between the lesion and adjacent vessels (Z=-3.62, P<0.05). Conclusion The 3D-DSA can clearly display the relationship between the lesion and adjacent vessels, which is important in the differential diagnosis of ID and aneurysm, thus it is worthy of spreading.
