Brain aneurysm repair: Stent-Assisted coiling put to the test
NCT ID NCT07683377
First seen Jul 06, 2026 · Last updated Jul 07, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial investigates the safety and effectiveness of using a stent along with coil embolization to treat ruptured brain aneurysms. The procedure is performed within a week of the bleeding event in patients aged 18 to 80 with wide-neck aneurysms. Researchers are monitoring for stroke, disability, and how well the aneurysm is sealed, both immediately and up to a year later.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- stent-assisted coil embolization
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this approach could offer a safer, more effective way to treat ruptured brain aneurysms and reduce the risk of rebleeding.
- What could go wrong
- This is a single-center study with a moderate sample size, and results may not apply to all patients. There is a risk of stroke or other complications from the procedure.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Patients aged 18-80 with a single ruptured cystic aneurysm at the center, or multiple aneurysms with a clear responsible lesion, only treat the responsible lesion * Aneurysms with a wide neck, neck ≥4mm, or neck/body ratio \>1/2 * Treatment performed within 7 days of the last hemorrhage * Patients undergoing interventional treatment using a stent, including cases of remedial stent use.5. Hunt \& Hess grade 1-3 Exclusion Criteria: * Exclude patients who meet the inclusion criteria but fail to undergo successful SAC embolization * Exclude non-cystic aneurysms, such as dissection, pseudoaneurysm, and distal aneurysm patients * Patients with other cerebrovascular diseases, including AVM, DAVF, Moyamoya disease, and arterial stenosis greater than 50% * Patients unable to use intravenous antiplatelet drugs * Patients with poor condition prior to aneurysm rupture, mRS ≥ 2 * Exclude pregnant patients * Exclude patients with other severe preoperative diseases, such as malignant tumors or cardiopulmonary and renal diseases * Patients with multiple aneurysms where the responsible lesion cannot be identified and treatment is done for all
