Use of three-dimensional Guglielmi detachable coils in the treatment of wide-necked cerebral aneurysms.

چکیده
A three-dimensional Guglielmi detachable coil (3D-GDC) has been developed that is designed specifically to bridge the neck of an aneurysm with coil loops, thereby facilitating retention of additional coils placed within the aneurysm. Nine wide-necked cerebral aneurysms were successfully embolized using the 3D-GDC, provided that the dome-to-neck ratio was 1.5 or greater.

Endovascular Management of Wide-Necked Aneurysms
Endovascular management of intracranial aneurysms using detachable platinum coils (Guglielmi detachable coils, Target Therapeutics, Fremont, CA) was introduced in 1990 by Guido Guglielmi, an Italian neurosurgeon. Working in collaboration with Vinuela and others at the University of California at Los Angeles, along with Target Therapeutics, endovascular obliteration of aneurysms became a common ...
متن کاملEndovascular occlusion of intracranial aneurysms with electrically detachable coils: correlation of aneurysm neck size and treatment results.
PURPOSE To devise a method to measure aneurysm neck size on angiographic films, and to correlate the sizes obtained with the extent of endovascular aneurysm occlusion, performed with electrically detachable coils. METHODS The angiograms of 79 intracranial aneurysms treated by endovascular occlusion using electrically detachable coils were retrospectively analyzed. A method using the average r...
متن کاملCombined use of stents and coils to treat experimental wide-necked carotid aneurysms: preliminary results.
PURPOSE To develop a new technique to treat wide-necked side-wall aneurysms, combining the implantation of intraarterial stents with the endosaccular placement of coils. METHODS Bilateral side-wall aneurysms were surgically created on the carotid arteries of four dogs. In each animal, Guglielmi detachable coils were introduced into one of the aneurysms after implantation of a balloon-expandab...
متن کاملEmbolization of intracranial aneurysms with Guglielmi detachable coils augmented by microballoons.
We describe two cases in which balloons were used to aid in the occlusion of intracranial aneurysms with Guglielmi detachable coils. In both patients, initial attempts to place coils within the aneurysmal sac failed, as the loops of the coil repeatedly protruded through a wide aneurysmal neck into the parent vessel. Temporary balloons placed across the neck of these small, wide-necked aneurysms...
متن کاملNew predictor for intraaneurysmal embolization using Guglielmi detachable coils.
Aneurysm volume/virtual column volume (AV/CV) ratio, calculated from measurements derived from reconstructed images based on rotational three-dimensional digital subtraction angiography (3D-DSA), was investigated as a predictor of the success of intraaneurysmal embolization in 20 unruptured wide-necked internal carotid artery aneurysms treated by Guglielmi detachable coils. AV and neck area wer...
