Coiling Aneurysm/SAH

Aneurysms are small outpouchings from of vessel wall. It is believed that the vessel is weak at this area. This small outpouching has a tendency to grow reducing an extremely friable or which is liable to burst at any moment.

When an aneurysm ruptures in the brain, the patient experiences headache of such severity that it is termed thunder clap headache.Close to 20 % of patients never reach the hospital at all. Another 20% will die in the next two weeks unless the aneurysm is treated.Aneurysms which have bled have a very high likelihood of bleeding again in the next few days and definite treatment for the same should be given at the earliest.

Endovascular coiling is an innovative technique where, this weak area in the blood vessel of the brain is repaired by packing this this outpouching with multiple medical coils which obliterates the sac completely. The procedure is done by a small puncture in the blood vessel of the thigh without opening the brain and skull.
