Abstract
To explore the therapeutic effect of the Neuroform self-expanding stent combined with
spring coils in the treatment of intracranial wide-necked aneurysm. Methods: A total of 152 patients who
accepted intervention for intracranial wide necked aneurysms were recruited to the study and divided according
to treatment method into the non-stent-assisted coil embolization group (coil only group, 56 cases) and the
stent-assisted coil embolization group (stent-assisted group, 96 cases). Clinical data of all the patients were
retrospectively analyzed. General treatment circumstances, incidence of complications, National Institute of
Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores and Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores before operation and at time of
patient release, recurrence rate, and prognosis were compared between the two groups. Results: There were no
significant differences between the two groups with regards to operation time and postoperative hospitalization
time (P>0.05). At the time of patient release, the NIHSS score of the stent-assisted group was lower than that of
the coil only group, and the GCS score of the stent-assisted group was higher than that of the coil only group (P<
0.05). There was no significant difference between the incidence of complications in the two groups. During the
follow-up period, the recurrence rate and mRS score in the stent-assisted group were lower than those in the coil
only group (P<0.05). Conclusion: For patients with intracranial wide-necked aneurysms with subarachnoid
hemorrhage, the combination treatment of neuroform self-expanding stent with coil embolization can safely and
significantly improve the curative effect and decrease the recurrence rate.
