This study retrospectively investigated the effect and safety of the NFA stent in stent-assisted coiling of wide-necked intracranial aneurysms. The results showed that the NFA stent had a high aneurysm occlusion rate and a low complication rate in assisting coiling.
To investigate the effect and safety of the Neuroform Atlas (NFA) stent in stent-assisted coiling of wide-necked intracranial aneurysms, patients with wide-necked intracranial aneurysms were retrospectively enrolled and treated with the NFA stent-assisted coiling. The modified Rankin scale (mRS) grades and Raymond grades were used to assess the clinical outcomes and aneurysm occlusion degrees, respectively, after embolization and at follow-up. Totally, 122 patients were enrolled with 129 wide-necked aneurysms, and forty-nine (40.2%) patients experienced subarachnoid hemorrhage. A total of 134 NFA stents were deployed in all patients. Immediately after endovascular embolization, the Raymond grade was I in 112 (86.8%), II in 8 (6.2%), and III in 9 (7.0%). Complications occurred in 7 (5.7%) patients, including stent displacement in 2 (1.6%) patients, thrombosis and cerebral infarction in 4 (3.3%), and death in 1 (0.8%). Clinical follow-up was performed in 113 (92.6%) patients 6-30 (mean 21) months after embolization, with the mRS grade 0 in 99 (87.6%) patients, 1 in 7 (6.2%), 2 in 5 (4.4%), and 3 in 2 (1.8%). Good prognosis (mRS & LE; 2) was achieved in 111 (98.2%) patients while poor prognosis (mRS > 2) in two (1.8%). Digital subtraction angiography was conducted in 98 (80.3%) patients with 104 (80.6%) aneurysms 6-30 (mean 21) months after embolization. The Raymond grade was grade I in 94 (90.4%) aneurysms, II in 4 (3.8%), and III in 6 (5.8%). Compared with the Raymond grades immediately after embolization, 93 (89.4%) aneurysms disappeared, 9 (8.7%) remained unchanged in the occlusion status, and 2 (1.9%) were recurrent. In conclusion, the NFA stent may have a high aneurysm occlusion rate and a low complication rate in assisting coiling of wide-necked intracranial aneurysms even though further studies are necessary to prove this.
