Correction of HEAL Registry Data Report

Harry J. Clofta

a Department of Radiology
Mayo Clinic
Rochester, Minn

A single case of aseptic meningitis occurred in the 191 patients (0.5%) treated in the HydroCoil for Endovascular Aneurysm Occlusion (HEAL) registry, but this adverse event was inadvertently not included in the results that were published recently in AJNR.1 Nine days after coil therapy of an unruptured 20-mm carotid artery ophthalmic segment aneurysm, the patient presented with headache, photophobia, meningismus, nausea, and vomiting. CSF analysis revealed elevated protein and elevated lymphocytes. The patient was treated with corticosteroids and recovered completely during a 3-week period without neurologic sequelae. This case was discussed in my presentation of the HEAL periprocedural results at the meeting of the American Society of Neuroradiology in 2005 in Seattle.
