Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms by using detachable coils has become an accepted alternative to surgery. To reduce the rate of aneurysm recanalization after treatment, biologically active polyglycolic/polylactic acid–covered platinum coils have been proposed. A prospective and multicenter registry was conducted in France to evaluate the safety and short-term and long-term efficacy of Matrix detachable coils. This first analysis is focused on the safety and short-term efficacy.
