Outcomes following aneurysmal coil embolization with intentionally shortened low-profile visible intraluminal support stent deployment.

Stent-assisted coil embolization using this technique showed good results of a high complete occlusion rate and low complication rate. These findings suggest that shortened low-profile visible intraluminal support stent deployment yields a flow diversion effect and may lead to early intra-aneurysmal thrombus formation.
