Effect of stenting on progressive occlusion of small unruptured saccular intracranial aneurysms with residual sac immediately after coil embolization: a propensity score analysis

Abstract: Small UIAs with residual sac filling after coiling showed a complete occlusion rate of 88.3% at 6 months post embolization. Stent deployment seems to promote complete occlusion in such lesions.

“…Currently, coil embolization is a safe and effective procedure for the treatment of ruptured intracranial aneurysms. [1][2][3] As endovascular therapy becomes more commonly used for treating aneurysms, the prevalence of periprocedural complications is expected to rise accordingly. 4 The main causes of morbidity and mortality are thromboembolisms, intraprocedural aneurysm ruptures, and postprocedural aneurysmal reruptures.…”

“…7) A study examined the results of coil embolization with respect to the presence or absence of stent use in patients in whom incomplete occlusion of cerebral aneurysms at the completion of coil embolization led to complete occlusion. 8) Although there was no significant difference between stentassisted and non-stent-assisted groups, the use of stents markedly increased the complete occlusion rate, excluding confounding factors, such as the aneurysmal size.…”

“…Although, TOF MRA can be helpful in estimating the degree of recanalization, stent artifacts obscuring minor recanalization could occur. [27][28][29][30] Moreover, the mean aneurysm size in our subjects was estimated at 6.3 Ϯ 3.2 mm. In Korea, coiled aneurysms Յ10 mm account for 89.3% of lesions in a national cohort of unruptured aneurysms.…”
