Coiling Variations for Treatment of Ruptured Intracranial Aneurysms: A Meta-Analytical Comparison of Comaneci-, Stent-, and Balloon-Coiling Assistance Techniques. World Neurosurg 2023; 175:e1324-e1340. [PMID: 37169072 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2023.05.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2023] [Revised: 05/01/2023] [Accepted: 05/02/2023] [Indexed: 05/13/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Wide-necked aneurysms represent a challenge for treatment in the setting of acute subarachnoid hemorrhage. Stent-assisted coiling (SAC) and balloon-assisted coiling (BAC) are well-known techniques for treating wide-necked aneurysms. Comaneci-assisted coiling (CAC) is a newer technique involving temporary stent deployment to assist aneurysm coiling. We aim to present the first meta-analysis comparing these treatments of ruptured aneurysms. METHODS Following PRISMA guidelines, PubMed and Embase databases were queried from earliest records to July 2022 for literature reporting SAC, BAC, or CAC of ruptured intracranial aneurysms. A meta-analysis of identified articles was performed. RESULTS Of the 571 articles queried, 64 articles were included. One study reported BAC and SAC, 8 reported BAC, 52 reported SAC, and 3 reported CAC. These studies comprised 3153 patients with 3207 ruptured aneurysms treated with CAC (161 patients and aneurysms), BAC (330 patients and aneurysms), and SAC (2662 patients, 2716 aneurysms). Rates of periprocedural thromboembolic or hemorrhagic complications, overall or procedure-related mortality, immediate complete occlusion, retreatment, and length of angiographic follow-up did not differ significantly between SAC and BAC. Periprocedural thromboembolic (P = 0.03) and hemorrhagic (P = 0.01) complication rates were higher with BAC than CAC. Periprocedural thromboembolic (P = 0.03) and hemorrhagic (P < 0.0001) complication rates were higher with SAC than CAC. Complete aneurysm occlusion rates (P = 0.033) were higher with CAC than BAC. No significant differences were present in CAC versus BAC or SAC retreatment rates. CONCLUSIONS CAC was associated with lower hemorrhagic and thromboembolic complication rates and demonstrated similar complete occlusion and residual retreatment rates to those for BAC and SAC.

[PMID: 36188411 PMCID: PMC9523143 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2022.913704] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2022] [Accepted: 08/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
The paraophthalmic segment of the internal carotid artery (ICA) originates from the distal border of the cavernous ICA and terminates at the posterior communicating artery. Aneurysms arising from the paraophthalmic segment represent ~5–10% of intradural aneurysms. Due to the advent of endovascular treatment (EVT) techniques, specifically flow-diverting stents (FDSs), EVT has become a good option for these aneurysms. A literature review on EVT for paraophthalmic segment aneurysms is necessary. In this review, we discuss the anatomy of the paraophthalmic segment, classification of the paraophthalmic segment aneurysms, EVT principle and techniques, and prognosis and complications. EVT techniques for paraophthalmic segment aneurysms include coil embolization, FDSs, covered stents, and Woven EndoBridge devices. Currently, coiling embolization remains the best choice for ruptured paraophthalmic segment aneurysms, especially to avoid long-term antiplatelet therapy for young patients. Due to the excessive use of antiplatelet therapy, unruptured paraophthalmic segment aneurysms that are easy to coil should not be treated with FDS. FDS is appropriate for uncoilable or failed aneurysms. Other devices cannot act as the primary choice but can be useful auxiliary tools. Both coiling embolization and FDS deployment can result in a good prognosis for paraophthalmic segment aneurysms. The overall complication rate is low. Therefore, EVT offers promising treatments for paraophthalmic segment aneurysms. In addition, surgical clipping continues to be a good choice for paraophthalmic segment aneurysms in the endovascular era.
