Endovascular treatment of wide-necked intracranial aneurysms with the Scepter XC Balloon, with Low-Profile Visualized Intraluminal Support (LVIS) Jr. deployment as a “bailout” technique

The Scepter XC balloon catheter can be used for balloon-assisted coiling (BAC) of cerebral aneurysms, but also accommodates delivery of a low profile visible intraluminal stent (LVIS Jr.). We assessed the safety and effectiveness of BAC using the Scepter XC, with LVIS Jr. stent-assisted coiling (SAC) as a bailout option.
