Parent Artery Occlusion in Large Giant or Fusiform Aneurysms of the Carotid Siphon: Clinical and Imaging Results

摘要

Parent artery occlusion has long been considered the reference treatment for large/giant or fusiform aneurysms of the carotid siphon. However, meager recent data exist on this technique, which tends to be replaced by stent-assisted reconstructive techniques. In our department since 2004, we have assessed the safety, efficacy, and complication risk factors of parent artery occlusion by using coils for trapping these aneurysms.
