The balloon remodeling technique (BRT) was designed for endovascular treatment of wide-necked intracranial aneurysms. To date, the balloon catheters available have had a single lumen and suitable guidewires ranging from 0.010 to 0.012 inches. We describe the first case of aneurysm embolization using the BRT with the new double-lumen balloon catheter, Scepter C(®), navigable on a 0.014-inch wire, and discuss the benefit of such a device.
球囊重塑技术(BRT)是为宽颈颅内动脉瘤的血管内治疗而设计的。迄今为止,现有的球囊导管只有单腔,且适用的导丝直径范围为0.010至0.012英寸。我们描述了首例使用新型双腔球囊导管Scepter C(®)通过BRT进行动脉瘤栓塞的病例,该导管可在0.014英寸的导丝上操作,并讨论了这种设备的优势。
