A Novel Aneurysm Clip Design for Atheromatous, Thrombotic, or Previously Coiled Lesions: Preliminary Experience With the “Compression Clip” in 6 Cases

Abstract

Atheromatous, thrombotic, and previously coiled aneurysms may not be treatable with simple neck clipping and may not be curable with endovascular therapy. For such cases, we designed a novel "compression" clip that has been used safely and successfully in our experience with good short-term follow-up.

The Maze-Making and Solving Technique for Coil Embolization of Large and Giant Aneurysms

“…15 In addition, large and giant aneurysms often have thicker atheromatous walls that prevent simple neck clipping. 16 Several treatment strategies, such as parent vessel occlusion, selective aneurysmal occlusion, and application of a flow-diverting stent, have been used for the treatment of large and giant aneurysms. In some cases, parent vessel occlusion may be the best choice.…”
