Abstract
Fiftyone consecutive patients with intracranial aneurysms treated with GDC 360° were included Angiographic results and adverse neurological events during the followup period were recorded For 38 patients treated with GDC 360° with available followup data a corresponding patient treated with GDC 3D was identified from our database Matches were sought for rupture status location aneurysmal size and neck size The angiographic outcome of these matched controls at 6 months was compared to aneurysms treated with GDC 360°Initial angiographic controls for 38 patients treated with GDC 360° showed complete occlusion in 32 aneurysms and a neck remnant in six At 6month followup complete occlusion was found in 29 a neck remnant in eight and a residual aneurysm in one One patient treated with GDC 360° needed retreatment for a major recanalisation In 38 matched patients treated with GDC 3D initial angiographic controls found complete aneurysmal occlusion in 30 aneurysms and a residual neck in 8 At 6month followup 24 aneurysms were completely occluded ten showed a neck remnant and residual aneurysms were seen in four Four patients treated with GDC 3D were retreated for major aneurysm recanalisations
