Brain aneurysm showdown: which treatment is safer and cheaper?
NCT ID NCT01811134
First seen Jan 05, 2026 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 24 times
Summary
This study looked at two ways to treat unruptured brain aneurysms (bulging blood vessels) that haven't bled. One method uses tiny coils to block the aneurysm, and the other uses a special stent to divert blood flow away from it. Researchers compared how well each method worked, their safety, and their cost in 91 adults. The goal was to see which approach is better at preventing future problems.
