Aneurysm Clipping or Coiling
Aneurysm Clipping or Coiling Treament
Treatment Range Hospital in Hyderabad offers advanced treatment for brain aneurysms through microsurgical clipping and endovascular coiling. These procedures are designed to prevent aneurysm rupture and life-threatening brain hemorrhage, providing patients with effective and lasting protection. Our expert neurosurgeons and interventional neuroradiologists work together to select the best approach based on the aneurysm’s size, location, and patient health.
Aneurysm clipping involves a minimally invasive craniotomy where a tiny clip is placed at the base of the aneurysm to stop blood flow into it, while coiling uses a catheter-based technique to fill the aneurysm with coils, promoting clotting and preventing rupture. With state-of-the-art neuroimaging, hybrid operating suites, and 24/7 neurocritical care, Treatment Range Hospital ensures safe and precise treatment for complex aneurysms.
If you are searching for brain aneurysm treatment in Hyderabad, Treatment Range Hospital is a trusted destination for both surgical and endovascular solutions. Our multidisciplinary team provides personalized care, advanced technology, and comprehensive follow-up to help patients recover and prevent future complications.
- Your 6 - Phase health Process
Your Complete Aneurysm Clipping or Coiling Journey
🩺Phase 1: Symptoms Identification
- Sudden severe headache (“thunderclap headache”)
- Nausea, vomiting, neck stiffness
- Vision problems or drooping eyelids
- Loss of consciousness or seizures (if ruptured aneurysm)
- Unruptured aneurysm discovered incidentally on imaging
🔬Phase 2: OPD Consultation with Neurosurgeon
- Review of medical history and symptoms
- Brain imaging (CT angiography, MR angiography, DSA) to evaluate aneurysm size, location, and rupture risk
- Discuss treatment options: surgical clipping vs. endovascular coiling
- Assess patient’s overall health for procedure planning
🧬 Phase 3: Causes (Indications for Treatment)
- Ruptured aneurysm causing subarachnoid hemorrhage
- Large or irregularly shaped unruptured aneurysms
- Family history of aneurysm rupture or high-risk features on imaging
- Preventive treatment in high-risk patients to avoid future bleeding
🔍 Phase 4: Diagnosis & Pre-Surgical Workup
- CT/MRI brain with angiography for detailed aneurysm mapping
- Blood tests for clotting profile and surgical fitness
- Pre-anesthesia evaluation and counseling about risks/benefits
🏥Phase 5: Treatment Options
- Surgical Clipping: Craniotomy performed to place a tiny metal clip across the aneurysm neck, sealing it off from blood flow
- Endovascular Coiling: Minimally invasive; catheter threaded through blood vessels to fill the aneurysm with coils, inducing clotting
- Procedure duration: 2–6 hours depending on method
💪 Phase 6: Post-Surgery Care & Recovery
- ICU monitoring for 1–3 days (especially for ruptured aneurysms)
- Medications to prevent vasospasm and control blood pressure
- Gradual return to light activities in 4–6 weeks
- Follow-up angiograms to confirm aneurysm closure
- Full recovery may take several weeks to months depending on the case

Helping you understand Our healthcare
Clipping: Neurosurgeon opens the skull (craniotomy) and places a metal clip across the aneurysm neck to stop blood flow.
Coiling: A catheter is threaded through blood vessels to fill the aneurysm with tiny platinum coils, promoting clotting.
For:
- Ruptured aneurysms causing bleeding (subarachnoid hemorrhage)
- Large, irregular, or high-risk unruptured aneurysms
- Family history of aneurysm rupture
- Coiling: Less invasive, shorter hospital stay, ideal for older patients or difficult-to-reach aneurysms.
- Clipping: Offers durable results, preferred for younger patients or certain aneurysm locations. Decision depends on aneurysm size, shape, and patient factors.
Both have high success rates in preventing rebleeding. Clipping has a slightly lower recurrence rate, while coiling may require follow-up treatments in some cases.
Stroke, infection, or vasospasm (narrowing of blood vessels)
Risk is minimized with careful pre-op planning and ICU monitoring post-op.
