Objectives: To identify and evaluate the cerebral aneurysm remnants after clipping and the endovascular treatment in our institution.

Methods And Materials: We made a clinical ambispective collection of all aneurysms microsurgically clipped during four years and we analyzed their endovascular treatment.

Results: There were 290 cerebral aneurysms; in 270 a digital subtraction angiography was made. Ten aneurysm remnants were found (3.7%); of these, a second operation was performed on two, and coil placement was done in six patients.

Conclusion: The cerebral aneurysm remnants after clipping in our institution are equivalent to international results. The endovascular treatment of this aneurysm is safe and effective.

Objective: Studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of hydrogel-coated coils (HGCs) to achieve the composite endpoint of decreased recanalization rates and greater safety. Herein, the authors aimed to assess the true ability of second-generation HGCs to prevent recanalization.

Methods: This randomized controlled study, the HYBRID (Hydrocoil Versus Bare Platinum Coil in Recanalization Imaging Data) trial, comparing HGCs with bare platinum coils (BPCs), was conducted in 43 Japanese institutions.

This study aimed to provide an updated evidence of superior hypophyseal artery (SHA) aneurysms management, including their clinical implications, predictive factors for rupture, therapeutic approaches, and post-treatment outcomes. This systematic review and meta-analysis, following PRISMA guidelines, assessed the literature on superior hypophyseal artery aneurysms. Studies were selected based on predefined criteria, focusing on coiling and clipping interventions.

Coil embolization of cerebral aneurysms often encounters challenges in achieving complete filling of the aneurysm sac due to complex shapes and hemodynamic factors, frequently resulting in the formation of a residual cavity (RC) at the aneurysm neck. The hemodynamic mechanisms underlying RC formation and growth, however, remain poorly understood. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis, combined with silent MRA free from contrast agents and metal artifacts, offers a promising approach to elucidate these mechanisms, potentially enhancing the clinical management of cerebral aneurysms post-coiling.

Microsurgical clipping remains a viable option for the treatment of coilable ruptured middle cerebral artery aneurysms in the endovascular era.

Although many institutions increasingly perform endovascular coiling instead of microsurgical clipping as the primary treatment for ruptured aneurysms, there remains ongoing debate regarding the optimal treatment strategy for ruptured middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms. Therefore, we compared the outcomes of clipping and coiling for treating ruptured MCA aneurysms. A total of 155 ruptured MCA aneurysms that were deemed eligible for both clipping and coiling were retrospectively reviewed.

The anatomical characteristics of middle cerebral artery aneurysms make endovascular treatment difficult. This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of endovascular treatment of unruptured middle cerebral artery aneurysm in preventing rupture. A retrospective review of patients who underwent coil embolization for unruptured middle cerebral artery aneurysm between 2006 and 2022 at Nagoya University Hospital with at least 12 months followed up was conducted.
