Coil Now, Pipe Later: Two-stage Treatment for Acute Intracranial Aneurysm Rupture

چکیده
The two main treatment modalities of acute intracranial aneurysm rupture are endovascular embolization and surgical clipping, each with its own benefits and risks. Endovascular treatment is associated with better outcomes compared to surgical clipping, but is also associated with high recurrence rates. We present the case of a patient with an acutely ruptured intracranial aneurysm, who subsequently underwent partial endovascular coiling acutely, and later underwent flow diversion therapy with the Pipeline Embolization Device. We also review the literature on this topic for further recommendations on treatment options of acute intracranial aneurysm rupture.

A trial for an evaluation of perianeurysmal arterial pressure change during carotid artery stenting in patients with concomitant severe extracranial carotid artery stenosis and ipsilateral intracranial aneurysm.
Concomitant occurrence of severe extracranial large vessel stenosis and an ipsilateral intracranial aneurysm is often detected incidentally, but the optimal therapeutic strategy is not clear. Several reports have investigated whether simultaneous carotid artery stenting and coil embolization, or multi-stage therapy is better. These treatment strategies are still controversial because simultaneo...
متن کاملCombined endovascular and microsurgical procedures as complementary approaches in the treatment of a single intracranial aneurysm.
OBJECTIVE Both endovascular coil embolization and microsurgical clipping are now firmly established as treatment options for the management of cerebral aneurysms. Moreover, they are sometimes used as complementary approaches each other. This study retrospectively analyzed our experience with endovascular and microsurgical procedures as complementary approaches in treating a single aneurysm. M...
متن کاملThrombus formation during intracranial aneurysm coil placement: treatment with intra-arterial abciximab.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The management of thrombus formation during coil placement in an intracranial aneurysm is important in minimizing periprocedural morbidity and mortality. We report on seven cases in which the primary treatment for thrombus formation during such coil placement was intra-arterial abciximab infusion. METHODS Clinical and radiologic records of 100 consecutive patients who u...
متن کاملGuglielmi detachable coiling for intracranial aneurysms: the story so far.
Spontaneous rupture of cerebral aneurysms typically results in subarachnoid hemorrhage. The primary goal of treatment of cerebral aneurysms is to prevent future rupture. Surgical clipping had been the mainstay of treatment of both ruptured and unruptured cerebral aneurysms. In 1991, Guglielmi detachable coil (GDC) embolization was introduced as an alternative method for treating selected patien...

to weakness of all vessel wall layers. Most cerebral aneurysms probably result from hemodynamicallyinduced degenerative vascular injuries by abnormal hemodynamic shear stresses on the walls of large cerebral arteries, particularly at bifurcation points. It has been reported that 90% of all intracranial aneurysms arise from the anterior circulation (1, 2). Most aneurysms are asymptomatic until t...
