ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of Solitaire stent combined with coils on endovascular embolization of intracranial wide-necked aneurysms.Methods Twenty-six cases with intracranial wide-necked aneurysms from June 2009 to December 2011 in the NO.264 Hospital of the Chinese People's Liberation Army were treated with Solitaire stent-assisted coils,and anticoagulation and antiplatelet therapy were done among peri operation period.The effect of endovascular embolization was evaluated after 3 months cerebral angiography.Results A total of 27 solitaire stent were used in the 26 patients,one of which used 2 stents.The stents were successfully put in place,and the placement effect were satisfaction.The immediate angiography showed that 24 cases were dense embolism,2 cases of subtotal embolization.Stent were placed at right position.Twenty-three patients were followed with DSA for 3 months,and no aneurysm evidence of recurrence was found.Conclusion Solitaire stent-assisted coil embolization of intracranial wide-necked aneurysms is simple to perform and embolism rate is high and the recurrence rate is low.
