Early Complications After Flow Diverter Versus Stent-Assisted Coiling for Unruptured Wide-Neck Intracranial Bifurcation Aneurysms

Early Complications After Flow Diverter Versus Stent-Assisted Coiling for Unruptured Wide-Neck Intracranial Bifurcation Aneurysms: A Prospective Real-World Cohort Study

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 10 Aug 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This prospective real-world cohort study aims to compare early postoperative complications between flow diverter treatment and stent-assisted coiling in patients with unruptured wide-neck intracranial bifurcation aneurysms. A total of 274 patients from three centers in China will be enrolled and assigned to the flow diverter group or the stent-assisted coiling group according to the treatment received in routine clinical practice. The primary outcome is a composite of any stroke or all-cause death within 30 days after the procedure. The study will also collect demographic, clinical, laboratory, imaging, aneurysm morphological, procedural, and follow-up data to evaluate the safety of these two endovascular treatment strategies in a real-world setting.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Patients who have already planned to undergo surgical or interventional treatment within 3 months.
  • Patients unable to receive antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy.
  • Patients with a previous or possible severe reaction to contrast agents that would prevent completion of pre-treatment medication or treatment.
  • Patients who participated in another drug or medical device clinical trial before enrollment and have not reached the time point of the primary endpoint.

Other illness

  • Patients with other cerebrovascular diseases such as arteriovenous malformation or moyamoya disease.
  • Patients who experienced stroke, including cerebral hemorrhage or cerebral infarction, within the past 1 month.
  • Patients with poor clinical condition, defined as modified Rankin Scale score ≥3.
  • Patients unsuitable for anesthesia or endovascular treatment, including those with major heart, lung, liver, spleen, or kidney disease, brain tumor, severe active infection, disseminated intravascular coagulation, or a history of severe psychiatric disorder.
  • Patients with a known history of allergy to cobalt-chromium or nickel-titanium alloy materials.

Other

  • Patients with two or more multiple aneurysms, all of which require treatment within 1 year.
  • Patients with ruptured aneurysms or narrow-neck aneurysms.
  • Patients considered by the investigator to be unsuitable for endovascular treatment, such as those with no suitable vascular access, excessively tortuous vessels, or difficulty in stent delivery.
  • Pregnant or lactating women.
  • Patients with life expectancy less than 12 months.
  • Patients judged by the investigator to have poor compliance and inability to complete the study as required

Who the study is looking for

  • Voluntarily provides written informed consent.
  • Aged 18 to 75 years.
  • Diagnosed by CTA, MRA, or DSA as having an unruptured, bifurcation, saccular, wide-neck intracranial aneurysm.
  • Able to understand the purpose of the study.

Age in the registry: 18 years to 75 years · Sex: All · Does not accept healthy volunteers
