Stent-assisted modified coil protection technique for bilobulated aneurysm: technical note.

Endovascular treatment of deeply located bilobulated aneurysms in elderly patients is still challenging because of the acute angulation of the carotid siphon and poor microcatheter support. In particular, generating a frame coil to cover each lobe is difficult in bilobulated aneurysms with narrow isthmus in the fused portion. Here, we report a successfully treated bilobulated aneurysm using a modified coil protection technique with stent assistance.
