Cortical Blindness Transient and Otherwise Associated with Detachable Coil Embolization of Intracranial Aneurysms

Given the rapid increase in endovascular procedures used to treat cerebral aneurysms, we explored the prevalence of this complication and whether we could add to the understanding of this disorder.
