Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are adults over 18 years old who have undergone curative embolization of a brain aneurysm.

Probably not a fit

Patients who have not had embolization treatment for a brain aneurysm will not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies

This study collects standardized long-term follow-up data from patients who have undergone endovascular embolization for brain aneurysms. It aims to assess the occurrence of aneurysm recanalization and the need for further interventions. The study leverages a large cohort of over 2,000 patients treated at the Rothschild Foundation, focusing on the risks associated with aneurysm rupture and the development of new aneurysms. Patients are monitored according to a protocol that includes MRI and arteriogram assessments at specified intervals post-treatment.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide valuable insights into the long-term outcomes of brain aneurysm treatments, improving patient monitoring and intervention strategies.

How similar studies have gone: While there have been studies on aneurysm treatment outcomes, this approach to standardized long-term follow-up data collection is relatively novel.
