Stent-assisted coiling of wide-necked and complex intracranial aneurysms is an effective and feasible treatment option. The self-expanding, fully retrievable Solitaire AB (eV3, Irvine, CA, USA) stent is the latest neurovascular remodeling device available. To the best of our knowledge, there are no studies of Solitaire AB-assisted coiling of wide-necked intracranial aneurysms from India.
