Abstract

Objective To analyze the causes, prevention and treatment of repture druing procedure for intracranial aneurysm embolization with GDC.Methods All the seven patients were embolized. Six patients were ruptured during the procedure and continuously embolized until the bleeding was halted. Another one was identified by post procedure CT. Results Four patients recovered unevent fully with one only suffering from mild deficit. Another 2 patients died of hyper intracranial pressure within one week. Conclusions Rupture during procedure of intracranial aneurysm embolization with GDC may be related to manipulation, properties of the parent artery and arneurysm. Continuous embolization with GDC will provide favorable prognosis for the patients.
