Advancement of minimally invasive surgery has made possible endovascular treatment of aneurysms. A small incision in the groin and we can reach all the way to the brain and coil embolize the aneurysm to secure it. Some complex ansueyrms may need the use of balloons, stents and flow diverters.
This minimally-invasive procedure is used to treat an aneurysm (a bulge in the wall of an artery) inside the skull. Aneurysms can often become so large that they rupture or leak. In this procedure, a small, soft metal coil is placed inside the aneurysm to help block the flow of blood and prevent rupture.
