  • Title: Endovascular treatment of ruptured, peripheral cerebral aneurysms: parent artery occlusion with short Guglielmi detachable coils.
    Author: Cloft HJ, Kallmes DF, Jensen ME, Lanzino G, Dion JE.
    Journal: AJNR Am J Neuroradiol; 1999 Feb; 20(2):308-10. PubMed ID: 10094361.
    Abstract:
    We report two cases of distal cerebral aneurysms that were treated by parent artery occlusion with short Guglielmi detachable coils (GDCs). One patient had a presumed mycotic aneurysm of the distal left posterior cerebral artery, and the other had a partially clipped aneurysm of the distal right anterior inferior cerebellar artery that had hemorrhaged. Short GDCs allow controlled, accurate occlusion of the parent artery at the aneurysmal neck.
