Meta-analysis of stent-assisted coiling versus coiling-only for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms

Highlights • Fourteen observation studies regarding stent-assisted coiling versus coiling-only for intracranial aneurysms were pooled. • There was a similar rate of immediate occlusion. • Progressive thrombosis was higher in stent-assisted coiling. • Aneurysm recurrence was lower in stent-assisted c...

Summary:Highlights • Fourteen observation studies regarding stent-assisted coiling versus coiling-only for intracranial aneurysms were pooled. • There was a similar rate of immediate occlusion. • Progressive thrombosis was higher in stent-assisted coiling. • Aneurysm recurrence was lower in stent-assisted coiling. • Mortality was higher for stent-assisted group.
