Coil embolization of aneurysms has been shown to be a safe and effective method of aneurysm treatment. Hydrogel-coated coils were developed as a hybrid embolization device to increase the packing density of a coil mass in an aneurysm and to reduce retreatment and rerupture rates. Previous studies have shown a benefit compared with bare metal coils.
