Abstract

Endovascular coiling represents the standard treatment for basilar tip aneurysms. Some of these aneurysms are not amenable to conventional coiling due to a complex aneurysm geometry, hence, novel devices such as the Woven Endobridge (WEB) have been developed. We retrospectively compared WEB embolization and coiling for the treatment of unruptured basilar tip aneurysms. Patients treated with WEB or coiling at four centers were reviewed. Procedure-related complications, clinical outcome and angiographic results were retrospectively evaluated and compared. Forty patients treated with the WEB and 35 patients treated by coiling were included. Stent-assistance was more often necessary for coiling than for WEB embolization (71% vs 2.5%, p < 0.001). The technical success rates were 100% for both methods. The overall complication rates were not significantly different between groups (WEB: 5%, coil: 11%, p = 0.409). Procedural morbidity rates were 9% in the coiling group and 2.5% in the WEB group (p = 0.334). There was no mortality. Treatment duration was shorter for WEB implantation than for coiling (p = 0.048). At mid-term follow-up, complete occlusion, neck remnants and aneurysm remnants were observed in 89%, 4% and 7% for the WEB, respectively, and in 100%, 0% and 0% for coiling. While complication rates and mid-term angiographic outcome was comparable between the groups, the WEB was associated with a shorter treatment duration and required stent-assistance less frequently. The choice of the treatment modality should be made based on the specific aneurysm characteristics, the individual experience of the neurointerventionalist and patient preference.
