Background: To evaluate the efficacy of stent-assisted coiling (SAC) for the treatment of carotid ophthalmic segment aneurysm segment aneurysms (OSAs) of the internal carotid artery (ICA) through detailed long-term follow-up of a large patient cohort. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 88 consecutive patients with OSAs between January 2009 and January 2020 ​at our center. Angiographic results were evaluated using the modified Raymond grading system and clinical outcomes were evaluated using the mRS scale. The primary endpoints were major aneurysm recurrence and poor clinical outcomes for at least 18 months of follow-up. The patients were asked to attend clinical follow-up assessments and possibly undergo DSA or MR via telephone. Results: We enrolled 88 patients with 99 OSAs treated with coiling, of whom 76 were treated with SAC. The coiling procedures were successful in all 88 patients. Overall, complications occurred in 8 patients (9.1%). No procedure-related mortality was observed. 67 (76.1%) experienced immediate aneurysm occlusion at the end of the procedure. Long-term angiographic follow-up (18 months) was available in 45/88 aneurysms (51%) (average 18.7 ​± ​5.2 months). Four patients continued their follow-up for 5 years after initial aneurysm treatment. After a clinical follow-up time of 28.7 months (range, 12–51 months), 85 patients (95.5%) achieved favorable clinical outcomes (mRS scores of 0–2). Conclusions: This study indicates that SAC treatment is a safe and effective therapeutic alternative for ruptured and unruptured OSAs. The procedural risks are low with relatively long-term effectiveness.
