Abstrakt: |
Appropriately sized 0.010- and 0.018-inch complex framing coils were placed in a wide-necked silicone aneurysm replica, and their stability was evaluated at variable physiologic flow rates using video recording. After detachment, the 0.010-inch coils demonstrated instability/prolapse that was proportional to flow rate. In contrast, 0.018-inch coils held their 3D configuration regardless of flow rate. The findings support the use of 0.018-inch coils (when possible) in aneurysms with unfavorable geometry, particularly in circulations with higher flow rates. |
