STROKEAHA:  July 30, 2013

Background and Purpose—National registration studies (the Japanese Registry of Neuroendovascular Therapy [JR-NET] and JR-NET2) have determined the current status and outcomes of neuroendovascular therapy (neuro-EVT). We analyzed short-term outcomes of EVT for asymptomatic unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs).

Methods—We extracted periprocedural information about EVT for 4767 asymptomatic UIAs from 31 968 registered procedural records of all EVT in the JR-NET and JR-NET2 databases. We assessed the features of the aneurysms and procedures, immediate radiographic findings, procedure-related complications, and clinical outcomes at 30 days after the procedures. Read more
