Participation Criteria
Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.
Eligibility Criteria
Ages Eligible for Study
18 years to 80 years (Adult, Older Adult)
Accepts Healthy Volunteers
No
Description
Inclusion Criteria:
- Subject age ≥18 and ≤80 years with a diagnosis of a ruptured or unruptured intracranial aneurysm judged suitable for selective endovascular treatment by coil occlusion during single procedure
- Aneurysm size [largest measurement from the cross sectional images to determine overall aneurysm size, not just the lumen) ≥5 mm and ≤16mm
- If ruptured aneurysm: either WFNS grade 1 or 2, or Hunt and Hess 1 or 2
- If unruptured aneurysm: Subject grade Modified Rankin Scale mRS 0 - 2
- Investigator plans to use ≥70% in volume TrelliX coils to fill target aneurysm
Exclusion Criteria:
- Prior treatment (surgical or endovascular) of the target aneurysm
- Planned treatment of multiple aneurysms in index procedure
- Planned use of other modified coils (Matrix, HydroCoil or fibered coils)
- Planned use of liquid embolic material
- Life expectancy less than 12 months
- Presence of arteriovenous malformation
- Fusiform, mycotic, traumatic, or tumoral aneurysms
- Intended or planned aneurysm treatment by parent vessel occlusion
- Clipping or endovascular treatment of another intracranial aneurysm performed within 30 days before or planned within 30 days following the index procedure
