Abstract:
Objective To report our preliminary clinical experience in embolization of intracranial aneurysms with liquid polymer (Onyx). Methods One case of posterior communicating artery aneurysm was treated with Onyx and microcoils, while the other one with multiple basilar aneurysms was treated by Onyx combined with stent coiling technique. Results All the aneurysms were totally occluded with patency of parent arteries. There was no procedure related complication. The patients recovered well during clinical follow up for 3 months. The angiographic follow up in one patient showed the result was stable and Onyx was totally apart from the flow in parent artery. Conclusions Short term result suggests that endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms with liquid polymer is safe and effective, however more experience is needed.
