BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: This study was undertaken to analyze the outcomes and
treatment-related complications of the polyglycolic/polylactic acid (PGLA)-coated Matrix …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Aneurysm recanalization is an innate problem in
endovascular treatment of aneurysms with coils. A coated coil system, covered with a …

There is no robust consensus on the efficacy of polyglycolic/polylactic acid (PGLA)-coated
coils used in the endovascular embolization of intracranial aneurysms. We present a …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The ability of polymer-modified coils to promote stable
aneurysm occlusion after endovascular treatment is not well-documented. Angiographic …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms by
using detachable coils has become an accepted alternative to surgery. To reduce the rate of …

Background and Purpose—Recanalization of cerebral aneurysm is a limitation of bare
platinum coils (BPCs). In a swine aneurysm model, polyglycolide/polylactide (a polymer) …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Matrix coils are polymer-coated bioactive coils used in
treatment of intracranial aneurysms. The current study is aimed at evaluating the efficacy …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Polyglycolic/polylactic acid–covered platinum coils have
been proposed to reduce the rate of aneurysm recanalization after endovascular treatment …

Introduction The purpose of this study is to compare the long-term (≥ 12 months)
angiographic follow-up of aneurysms treated with polymer polyglycolic-lactic acid (PGLA) …

OBJECTIVE A prospective multicenter registry was conducted in France to evaluate the
safety and efficacy of Matrix coils (Boston Scientific Neurovascular, Fremont, CA). The short …
