AZUR framing coils take a three-dimensional approach to aneurysms, providing an even distribution of coil loops at the treatment site to keep additional coils inside and prevent migration.

Q: What are the clinical indications and functional advantages of using a detachable framing coil during endovascular aneurysm treatment?

A: A framing coil is indicated in endovascular procedures for the initial embolization of aneurysms, particularly wide-necked or irregularly shaped aneurysms, where durable scaffold formation is critical. As the first coil deployed, the framing coil establishes the structural framework necessary to support subsequent filling coils and to optimize aneurysm packing density. Its use is especially warranted in saccular intracranial aneurysms requiring precise coil placement to prevent migration. A detachable coil design enables controlled deployment and repositioning, enhancing procedural safety and efficacy. Framing coils play a vital role in aneurysm framing by maintaining coil stability and facilitating complete aneurysmal occlusion with minimal parent vessel compromise.

Q: What are the available options for selecting a framing coil system when performing endovascular coil embolization of  aneurysms?

A: Options for framing coils in aneurysm treatment include a variety of Terumo endovascular coil technologies designed for precise deployment and durable occlusion. A framing coil is typically the initial coil deployed within the aneurysm sac to establish a stable framework for subsequent filling. Terumo offers a comprehensive framing coil system featuring complex 3D shapes that conform to irregular aneurysm geometries and maintain coil integrity. These framing coils facilitate secure anchoring and minimize the risk of prolapse. Selection of an appropriate framing coil system is critical for procedural success, especially in wide-neck or irregular aneurysms requiring enhanced control and conformability.
