Outline of Final Research Achievements

To reduce the number of coils and to avoid re-perfusion in coil embolization for aneurysm, we believe that preventing blood flow with membrane formation at the aneurysmal neck, keeping coil formation, and reinforcing coil scaffold with biological substance, are needed. For this purpose, we used both biological and fibered coils for peripheral aneurysms. Intimal formation at aneurismal neck was thicker with both biological and fibered coils. The amount of fibrous organization was not different with various coils. However, the multinucleated giant cell formation was more in a combination of biological and fibered coils. In physical experiment, platinum 3D bare coils, which have no biological effect, became unstable immediately after coiling. Actually, the coil embolization was performed with a combination of biological, fibered, and 3D bare coils in 13 abdominal aneurysms. Coil formation remained stable and re-perfusion did not occur in all in spite of reducing coil occupation.
