Abstract

In recent years, interventional neuroradiological techniques for management of cerebral aneurysms have rapidly grown to provide a less invasive alternative to conventional surgical clipping. This is usually achieved by the deposition of coils within the aneurysms to obliterate it. The development of newer techniques and devices like flow diverters and stents have made endovascular management of complex lesions possible. This chapter aims to provide a concise overview of the concepts, techniques, equipment, and evidence surrounding the endovascular management of cerebral aneurysms.
