LVIS versus enterprise stents for stent-assisted coiling of intracranial aneurysms: a systematic review and meta-analysis
摘要
This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to compare the clinical and angiographic outcomes of the LVIS versus the Enterprise stent for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms (IAs).
MethodsEligible studies were extracted from PubMed, Scopus, and Embase comparing LVIS/Enterprise. Data on angiographic occlusion rates, neurological deficits, in-stent stenosis, hemorrhagic complications, thromboembolic complications and aneurysm recanalization were analyzed with statistical methods.
Results5 observational studies (912 patients: 457 treated with LVIS and 455 with Enterprise) were analyzed. LVIS was linked to a significantly lower likelihood of Raymond-Roy Occlusion Classification (RROC) Class 3 (RR 0.30; 95% CI 0.13–0.71; I²=0%) and aneurysm recanalization (RR 0.38; 95% CI 0.18–0.82; I²=0%). No statistically significant differences were found between the two groups regarding mRS 0–2, RROC Class 1 or 2, or the incidence of neurological deficits, in-stent stenosis, hemorrhagic or thromboembolic events.
ConclusionLVIS and Enterprise demonstrate safety and efficacy in the endovascular management of IAs. LVIS may provide improved angiographic outcomes by lowering the risk of recurrence and incomplete occlusion. These findings support its potential advantage in treating complex aneurysms. Further confirmation through randomized controlled trials (RCT) is needed.
