Coil trick may stop leaky aneurysm repairs
NCT ID NCT05665101
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 20, 2026 · Updated 40 times
Summary
This study tests whether placing metal coils in the aneurysm sac during standard endovascular repair (EVAR) can prevent type II endoleaks—persistent blood flow that can cause the aneurysm to grow or rupture. About 100 high-risk patients will be randomly assigned to receive EVAR alone or EVAR with coil embolization. The main goal is to see if the coil group has fewer endoleaks at 12 months.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
coil embolization (metal coils placed in the aneurysm sac during EVAR)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could reduce the need for additional invasive procedures to fix persistent blood leaks after aneurysm repair.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively small, early-stage trial (100 participants) and the benefit may not apply to all patients. Coil placement itself carries risks like vessel damage or incomplete sealing.
Conditions
The condition(s) this trial relates to.
As listed by the trial registrant
The condition terms exactly as the trial's registrant entered them.
