Intra-arterial abciximab for the treatment of thrombus formation during coil embolization of intracranial aneurysms

Abstract

Thrombus formation during coil embolization of intracranial aneurysms occurred more in women and smokers. Low doses of intra-arterial abciximab may be effective in the thromboembolic complications occurring during endovascular embolization of intracranial aneurysms.
