Abstract:
Apply interventional endovascular therapy in 100 patients with intracranical aneurysms between 24 and 69 years old of age from 2001 May to 2003 February. All patients underwent angiography by Seldinger's technique, then embolized by GDC coils, Cook coils or balloon. Results: success: 9 cases, fail: 1 case because of sinuous carotid arteries so that couldn't catheterization. Aneurysm embolization is efficient method. Saccular aneurysms with median size of 8-14mm are indicated embolization. Giant aneurysms are treated by embolization of carotid arteries after tested given good results
