Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Intracranial aneurysms are often treated using Guglielmi detachable coils, which need long detachment time and more rigid detach area. Moreover Guglielmi detachable coils have a higher incidence of complications, thus it is not conducive to small aneurysm embolization.
OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of the Trufill detachable coil in a treatment of acute ruptured intracranial aneurysms.
METHODS: A case of subarachnoid hemorrhage with CT scanning was diagnosed as intracranial aneurysm by digital subtraction angiography. Trufill detachable coil was selected to embolize aneurysms.
RESULTS ANDCONCLUSION: After treatment, intracranial aneurysm was treated with coils packing successfully, for 99%.The bleeding was under control. The super-softness of hydro-detachable coils and the compliance of the aneurysm wall, as well as the simple operation, can increase the possibility of compactable embolization for intracranial aneurysms, and reduce the complications, considered as an optimal embolization method of acute ruptured intracranial aneurysms currently.
