Stent-assisted treatment of ruptured intracranial aneurysms in the acute phase: A single center experience

Stent-assisted coiling of acutely-ruptured aneurysms achieves good immediate aneurysm occlusion. Rates of intra- and periprocedural adverse events observed in this series were significant, but did not translate to corresponding morbidity and mortality in all cases. The retrospective analysis did not allow assessing the overall risks of endovascular therapy with stent use in ruptured and complex aneurysm when compared to the overall risks with other alternative options.
