Embolization of Ruptured and Unruptured Aneurysms with the Contour Neurovascular System—Summary of 106 Cases
The present work reports the long-term angiographic and clinical follow-up results of a single-center cohort of 106 patients with intracranial aneurysms treated with the CNS. The CNS demonstrated a high rate of successful implantation and promising mid- and long-term stability, with a low reintervention rate beyond 24 months in patients exhibiting early occlusion at 6 months. While acknowledging the limitations, these findings contribute valuable information about the safety and efficacy of the CNS, and warrant continued exploration in larger, prospective studies to validate its role in aneurysm treatment.
