Abstract:
Objective To explore the clinical value of endovascular embolization treatment with Guglielmi detachable coil (GDC) for the patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysm. Methods 15 cases of patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysm were undengone endovascular embolization with GDC. According to Hunt Hess classification, 8 belonged to grade Ⅰ, 6 for grade Ⅱ, and 1 in grade Ⅳ. All the patients were diagnosed with cerebral DSA and CT scan. Results 13 cases of the 15 patients (86.7%) were succeeded in embolization with GDC. Other 2 cases were failed with embolization, died of hemorrhage on the fourth day and in fourth month respectively. There were no complications and hemorrhage in the 13 cases in the follow up 3 to 25 months. Other follow up methods all showed normal appaerance and position including skull X ray films of 13 patients and carotid artery DSA of 2 patients at an interval of 6 months. Conclusion Endovascular embolization treatment with GDC is an effective method for ruptured intracranial aneurysm to avoid hemorrhage.
