Pak J Neuro Surg Jan ;17(2):193-6.

Objective: To assess the recurrence of A.com-ACA complex cerebral aneurysms after coiling.Materials and Methods: This study was conducted from July 2010 to December 2013 at the department of Neuroradiology, PGMI, Lahore General Hospital, Lahore. A total of 50 patients with cerebral aneurysms at the level of A. Com – ACA complex were included in this study of both gender (male and female) and in the age range of 45 – 65 years.Results: Out of 50 patients, there were 20(40%) males and 30 (60%) female patients. Their age ranged from 45 - 65 years. The maximum numbers of patients were in their fifth and sixth decade of life. In our study successful coiling was done in all patients with minimal recurrence/recanalization of cerebral aneurysms at A.com-ACA complex.Conclusion: Coiling is minimally invasive endovascular procedure routinely performed to treat cerebral aneurysms with an aim to highlight the significance of recognizing the large sized aneurysms recurrence / recanalization by regular follow up and early intervention to decrease morbidity and mortality of the patients.
