Abstract:
Objective To investigate the efficacy of self-expanding stent combined with loosened coil embolization in patients with fusiform basilar artery aneurysm_ Methods A retrospective analysis of the clinical data and treatment efficacy of 12 patients with fusiform basilar artery aneurysms,admitted to our hospital from January 2005 to January 2010 and underwent endovascular procedures of self-expanding stent and loosened coil embolization for over a 5-year period,was performed.Results All patients showed an excellent clinical outcome without operation-related complications.Follow-up DSA on 7 patients at 6-8 months after the operation indicated that 6 patients achieved complete angiographic cure and only 1 had incomplete occlusion; the parent arteries of these 7 patients kept smoothly.Conclusion The self-expanding stent combined with loosened coil embolization is a safe and effective method in treating patients with fusiform basilar artery aneurysrn.
