Brief summary
Comparison of duration of dual antiplatelet therapy after stent-assisted coiling of unruptured intracranial aneurysms
Detailed description
The purpose of this study is to compare the incidence of thromboembolic and hemorrhagic complications between 1 and 18 months after stent-assisted coiling according to the duration of use of dual antiplatelet agents (6 months versus 12 months) after stent-assisted coiling of unruptured intracranial aneurysms to determine the optimal duration of use of dual antiplatelet agents.
Interventions
1. short-term dual antiplatelet: dual antiplatelet agents for 6 months 2. long-term dual antiplatelet: dual antiplatelet agents for 12 months
