| Popis: | to compare packing, reopening and retreatment of intracranial aneurysms treated with two types of coils with different wire thickness and different shapes. Packing, defined as ratio between volume of inserted coils and volume of aneurysm, was calculated for 235 aneurysms, 120 treated with predominantly helical shaped coils of 0.010 inch wire diameter (GDC 10) and 115 treated with predominantly complex shaped coils of 0.012 inch wire diameter (Cordis TruFill). Aneurysm packing, reopening and retreatment during follow up were compared for aneurysms treated with either type of coils. Mean packing was significantly higher (absolute value 6.8 %, relative value 23.0 %, P |
