Abstract:
Stent-assisted coil embolization is a common endovascular treatment for ruptured/unruptured intracranial aneurysms. Stent implantation process can damage vascular endothelium, activate platelet and coagulation cascade, and then increase the risk of thrombosis. In order to reduce the risk of postoperative embolism, antiplatelet therapy is required. Among them, aspirin combined with clopidogrel dual antiplatelet therapy is a commonly used strategy. For patients with low response to clopidogrel, tigrelol or cilostazol can be used as an alternative drug. Although the scheme has been considered to be effective and safe, it is still controversial.
