Introduction: Stent-assisted coiling has widened indications and improved stability of endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms. However, stent-assisted coiling is usually not used to treat acutely ruptured intracranial aneurysms to avoid antiplatelet therapy. The objective of this study is to evaluate a strategy of staged endovascular treatment of ruptured intracranial aneurysms including coiling at the acute phase with complementary stenting with or without coiling at the subacute phase.
Material And Methods: Between 2012 and 2017, we retrospectively identified, in our prospectively maintained database, all patients treated for a ruptured intracranial aneurysm based on this staged stenting strategy. Clinical charts and imaging follow-up were analyzed to assess the procedural safety and feasibility as well as clinical and anatomical outcome.
Results: We identified 23 patients with 23 intracranial aneurysms including 15 (65.2%) women with a mean age of 50 years (range 24-69 years). No rebleeding occurred during the mean delay of 24.3 days between initial coiling and stenting. All procedures were successful and additional coiling was performed in 5/23 procedures (21.7%). Clinical status was unchanged in all patients. At follow-up, the modified Rankin scale was graded 0 in 19/23 (82.6%), 1 in 2/23 (8.7%), and 2 in 2/23 (8.7%) patients, respectively. The rate of complete occlusion rose from 30.4% before the stenting procedure to 52.2% immediately after and 72.7% at follow-up.
Conclusion: This strategy of early staged stenting in selected patients is safe and improves immediate intracranial aneurysm occlusion and long-term stability in this population at high risk of intracranial aneurysm recurrence with coiling alone.
