Brain aneurysm coiling, also known as endovascular coiling, is a minimally invasive surgical method used to treat brain aneurysms. A brain aneurysm happens when a blood vessel in the brain becomes weakened, forming a bulge that can rupture and cause life-threatening bleeding. Coiling involves placing soft platinum coils into the aneurysm to block blood flow, reducing the risk of rupture and protecting the patient's brain.
Dr Akhil Monga specialises in the coiling of the aneurysm, offering advanced, minimally invasive solutions to ensure patient safety and effective treatment.
Endovascular coiling is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that is performed without open surgery. Here's how it works:
This procedure is usually performed under general anaesthesia, and most patients experience a quick recovery compared to open brain surgery.
Endovascular coiling offers several key benefits over traditional surgical treatments for brain aneurysms:
Patients diagnosed with a brain aneurysm that has not yet ruptured may be candidates for coiling of the aneurysm. Additionally, endovascular coiling can be used in cases where open surgery poses a higher risk or when the aneurysm is difficult to access.
Dr Akhil Monga will evaluate the size, location, and shape of the aneurysm to decide if this procedure is the best treatment option for you.
After the procedure, most patients are monitored in the hospital for 1-2 days and can resume light activities within a week. Follow-up imaging may be advised to ensure the coils remain in place and the aneurysm remains sealed. Regular monitoring is necessary to ensure long-term success.
