Direct carotid puncture for the endovascular treatment of anterior circulation aneurysms.

چکیده
We report the usefulness of Guglielmi detachable coil (GDC) embolization by direct carotid puncture for anterior circulation aneurysms. For all 27 patients, GDC embolization by direct carotid puncture was safely performed by using a 5F sheath introducer 5 cm long and a Tracker-38 catheter. Neurologic deficits and hemorrhage were not found in any patient during the follow-up period. If the transfemoral approach cannot be applied, GDC embolization should be considered as an alternative method.

Direct percutaneous puncture of a cervical internal carotid artery aneurysm for coil placement after previous incomplete stent-assisted endovascular treatment.
Direct percutaneous puncture for coil placement has been described for visceral aneurysms, but the procedure has not been previously reported for aneurysms of the head and neck. We report a case in which stent-assisted endovascular treatment was successfully combined with direct puncture for additional coil placement to treat a symptomatic giant aneurysm of the cervical internal carotid artery.

INTRODUCTION: Direct percutaneous carotid artery puncture (DPCAP) enables endovascular treatment of cerebral aneurysms that are otherwise untreatable in patients with non-navigable proximal vessel tortuosity. Traditionally, microcatheters were advanced directly through the carotid sheath to the intracranial target. This method is insufficient for complex modern neurointerventions necessitating ...
