Cerebral Aneurysm Coiling
A cerebral aneurysm is a weak, balloon-like bulge in a brain blood vessel. If it ruptures, it can cause a life-threatening brain hemorrhage (subarachnoid hemorrhage). Cerebral Aneurysm Coiling is a minimally invasive endovascular procedure designed to seal off the aneurysm and prevent bleeding, offering patients a safe and effective alternative to open brain surgery.
What Is Cerebral Aneurysm Coiling?
Cerebral Aneurysm Coiling (Endovascular Coiling) is a catheter-based treatment where doctors insert soft platinum coils into the aneurysm through blood vessels. The coils fill the aneurysm, block blood flow into it, and stimulate clotting — effectively preventing rupture.
In simple terms: a tiny wire coil is placed inside the aneurysm to “seal it from within”, lowering the risk of bleeding while avoiding open skull surgery.
Conditions We Treat
Cerebral Aneurysm Coiling is recommended for:
- Unruptured Brain Aneurysms – detected early before bleeding occurs
- Ruptured Aneurysms – emergency treatment after subarachnoid hemorrhage
- Multiple Aneurysms – patients with more than one weak blood vessel area
- High-Risk Aneurysms – large, irregular, or difficult-to-access aneurysms
Why Choose Coiling?
- Prevents Rupture: Significantly reduces the risk of life-threatening brain hemorrhage.
- Minimally Invasive: Performed via a catheter through the groin or wrist — no skull opening required.
- Faster Recovery: Most patients return home in a few days, with minimal scarring.
- Globally Proven: Recognized as a gold-standard treatment for brain aneurysms worldwide.
Treatment Procedure
1. Diagnostic Imaging
CT angiography, MR angiography, or digital subtraction angiography (DSA) are used to identify the aneurysm.
2. Catheter Navigation
A thin catheter is inserted from the groin or wrist and guided up to the brain blood vessel.
3. Coil Placement
Soft platinum coils are placed inside the aneurysm, filling it and blocking blood flow.
4. Stent Assistance (If Needed)
Sometimes, a stent or flow diverter is placed to hold the coils in position and protect blood flow in the main artery.
What to Expect During Treatment
- Detailed Evaluation – Advanced imaging to determine aneurysm size, shape, and risk.
- Personalized Plan – Choice of coiling alone or coiling with stent assistance.
- Safe Procedure – Performed under general anesthesia with high-precision imaging.
- Rehabilitation Support – Monitoring, medications, and follow-up scans to ensure long-term safety.
When Should You Consider Aneurysm Coiling?
- If you have an unruptured aneurysm at risk of bleeding
- If you have already suffered a ruptured aneurysm and need urgent treatment
- If your aneurysm is difficult to reach by open surgery
- If you are seeking a minimally invasive, safe, and effective solution
