- Endovascular group: total complication rate 12%, no permanent deficit.
- Surgical clipping group: total complication rate 10.9%, 1 permanent deficit.
- Combination group: complication rate of 15.8%, no permanent deficit.
- Endovascular is a better approach for multiple aneurysms than surgical clipping.
ObjectiveTo investigate the outcomes and safety of endovascular compared with surgical clipping for multiple intracranial aneurysms.Material and methods98 patients with 260 multiple intracranial aneurysms were treated with endovascular, surgical clipping, combined treatment, and observation. Data were retrospectively studied following treatment and at follow-up.ResultsIn the endovascular group, 44 aneurysms were treated with coils only and 29 aneurysms were treated with stent deployment. The complete occlusion rate was 65%, and the total complication rate was 12% with no permanent deficit. After angiographic follow-up for 1-90 (mean 62) months, the total recurrence rate was 18.3%. In the clipping group, 65 aneurysms were clipped. The complete occlusion rate was 90.8%, and the complication rate was 10.9% with 1 permanent deficit. After follow-up for 11-71 (mean 49) months, the angiographic recurrence rate was 1.5%. In the combination group, 20 aneurysms were treated endovascularly. The complete occlusion rate was 78.9%, and the complication rate was 15.8% with no permanent deficit. Twenty-eight aneurysms were treated surgically with the complete occlusion rate of 89.3%, the complication rate of 20% and 3 permanent deficits. After follow-up for 1-93 (mean 58) months, the angiographic recurrence rate was 33.3% for embolization and 3.6% for clipping. Seventy-four aneurysms for observation had 2.7% regrowth rate within 1-3 years.ConclusionEndovascular embolization has an accepted complication rate but no neurological deficits compared with surgical clipping and may be a better approach for multiple intracranial aneurysms than surgical clipping.
