AB BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Long-term documentation of anatomic and angiographic characteristics pertaining to the timing of recanalization in coiled aneurysms has been insufficient. Our intent was to analyze and compare early and late-phase recanalization after coiling, identifying respective risk factors.MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 870 coiled saccular aneurysms were monitored for extended periods (mean, 30.8 ± 8.3 months). Medical records and radiologic data were also reviewed, stratifying patients as either early (n = 128) or late (n = 52) recanalization or as complete occlusion (n = 690). Early recanalization was equated with confirmed recanalization within 6 months after the procedure, whereas late recanalization was defined as verifiable recanalization after imaging confirmation of complete occlusion at 6 months. A multinomial regression model served to assess potential risk factors, the reference point being early recanalization.RESULTS: Posterior circulation (P = .009), subarachnoid hemorrhage at presentation (P = .011), second attempt for recanalized aneurysm (P < .001), and aneurysm size >7 mm (P < .001) emerged as variables significantly linked with early recanalization (versus complete occlusion). Late (versus early) recanalization corresponded with aneurysms ≤7 mm (P = .013), and in a separate subanalysis of lesions ≤7 mm, aneurysms 4–7 mm showed a significant predilection for late recanalization (P = .008). However, the propensity for complete occlusion in smaller lesions (≤7 mm) increased as the size diminished.CONCLUSIONS: Although long-term complete occlusion after coiling was more likely in aneurysms ≤7 mm, such lesions were more prone to late (versus early) recanalization, particularly those of 4–7 mm in size. Long-term follow-up imaging is thus appropriate in aneurysms >4 mm to detect late recanalization of those formerly demonstrating complete occlusion.
