Endovascular treatment of experimental aneurysms by use of a combination of liquid embolic agents and protective devices.

Abstract

Although complete occlusion of experimental aneurysms with Onyx is feasible using protective devices, migration of the liquid embolic agent into the parent artery or intracranially remains a difficult challenge. Further experimental studies need to be performed to master this technique and to select those aneurysms that can be safely treated in clinical practice.
