Safety of stent-assisted coiling for the treatment of wide-necked ruptured aneurysm: A systematic literature review and meta-analysis of prevalence.

CONCLUSION: Stent-assisted coiling of ruptured intracranial aneurysm is a technically feasible procedure with controlled thromboembolic complication rate but may be associated with higher hemorrhagic and total complication rates compared to coiling alone. While stent-assisted coiling of ruptured wide-necked aneurysm seems to yield a lower rate of favorable clinical outcome, overall mortality is comparable to that of endovascular coiling alone.
