Evaluates the safety and effectiveness of stent-free coil embolization in aneurysms, suggesting a shift in endovascular practice.
Objective: Stent-free coil embolization has advantages such as a low periprocedural risk and elimination of the need for antiplatelet therapy. Recent advancements in coil technology and adjunctive techniques, including the double-catheter method, may have contributed to improved outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and limitations of stent-free coil embolization for internal carotid–posterior communicating artery (IC-Pcom) aneurysms in current endovascular practice.
