Endovascular embolization is applicable for large and giant intracranial aneurysms: experience in one center with long-term angiographic follow-up.

CONCLUSION: Endovascular intervention with coiling alone or stent-assisted coiling for large and giant cerebral aneurysms is not very effective, while covered stents are more promising. Better endovascular devices are needed to obtain more secure closure.
