Outcome of ruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysm treatment compared between surgical clipping and endovascular coiling: A single-center analysis

Abstract

The optimal treatment modality for ruptured anterior communicating artery (ACoA) aneurysms is unclear. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to compare the outcomes of endovascular coiling and surgical clipping to treat ruptured ACoA aneurysms. A retrospective analysis of 213 consecutive patients with ruptured AcoA aneurysms, who were treated with coiling or clipping between January 2010 and December 2020, was conducted. Of the 213 patients, 94 and 119 underwent clipping and coiling, respectively. The mean age was higher in the coiling group than in the clipping group (60.3 ± 13.2 vs. 53.5 ± 13.4, P
