Published: April 2002

The endovascular occlusion of deeply bilobulated aneurysms is a technical challenge. Recently, we successfully treated three patients with deeply bilobulated aneurysms by using Guglielmi detachable coils. The embolization technique was conventional, but it required several special technical considerations. In this report, we describe the technique of coil embolization of deeply bilobulated aneurysms.

Endovascular treatment of deeply located bilobulated aneurysms in elderly patients is still challenging because of the acute angulation of the carotid siphon and poor microcatheter support. In particular, generating a frame coil to cover each lobe is difficult in bilobulated aneurysms with narrow isthmus in the fused portion. Here, we report a successfully treated bilobulated aneurysm using a modified coil protection technique with stent assistance.
