Initial experience with aneurysm coiling in Nepal
View through CrossRef
The aim of this study is to show the result of aneurysm coiling despite the difficulty in initiating neurointervention in Nepal. It is a retrospective study where only aneurysm that has undergone coiling are taken from 2017 to 2018.A total of eleven patients (male: female = 1: 10) with aneurysm were treated with Endovascular therapy. 9 cases were ruptured aneurysm while 3 were unruptured. 5 aneurysm were located in anterior circulation while 6 were located in posterior circulation. Out of eleven cases 4 were treated by simple coiling technique, while 2 underwent balloon assisted coiling, 3 stent assisted coiling, 1 pConus assisted coiling and 1 simple coiling and stent assisted coiling. Statistical analysis showed significant correlation between fisher grading scale with mRS score (P=0.013) suggesting lower fisher grade, and improved outcome similar to the result of prospective one year follow up of Barrow Ruptured Aneurysm Trial ( BRAT) study. With limited resources aneurysm coiling was performed at ANIAS with similar results to literature.Nepal Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 15, Number 2, 2018, page: 30-35

Description:
The aim of this study is to show the result of aneurysm coiling despite the difficulty in initiating neurointervention in Nepal.
It is a retrospective study where only aneurysm that has undergone coiling are taken from 2017 to 2018.
A total of eleven patients (male: female = 1: 10) with aneurysm were treated with Endovascular therapy.
9 cases were ruptured aneurysm while 3 were unruptured.
5 aneurysm were located in anterior circulation while 6 were located in posterior circulation.
Out of eleven cases 4 were treated by simple coiling technique, while 2 underwent balloon assisted coiling, 3 stent assisted coiling, 1 pConus assisted coiling and 1 simple coiling and stent assisted coiling.
Statistical analysis showed significant correlation between fisher grading scale with mRS score (P=0.
013) suggesting lower fisher grade, and improved outcome similar to the result of prospective one year follow up of Barrow Ruptured Aneurysm Trial ( BRAT) study.
With limited resources aneurysm coiling was performed at ANIAS with similar results to literature.
