Abstract
MicroNesters are not the coil of choice for most neurointerventional procedures because they are not retrievable. However, when parent artery sacrifice or transvenous occlusion of dural arteriovenous fistulas is the goal, MicroNesters are a relatively inexpensive and equally effective alternative to more expensive, detachable coils and can reduce the procedural costs by $3600 to $6000 for the current series.
