Guglielmi Detachable Coil embolization of cerebral aneurysms: 11 years' experience

Journal of neurosurgery · 2003 · Vol. 98(5) · pp. 959–966

Abstract

The clinical and postembolization outcomes in patients treated with the GDC system have improved in the past 5 years. Aneurysm recanalization, however, is still a major limitation of current GDC therapy. Follow-up angiography is mandatory after GDC embolization of cerebral aneurysms. Further technical and device improvements are mandatory to overcome current GDC limitations.
