What is Coil Embolization?

A minimally invasive technique called coil embolization is used to treat a variety of illnesses, most frequently brain aneurysms.

It requires placing small, flexible metal coils into the blood vessel to obstruct blood flow to a particular location.

What is the purpose of the doctor's procedure?

To stop an artery's bleeding or unusual blood flow. As an example, coil embolization can be applied to:

  • Close the Arteriosus Patent (PDA)
  • Stop the irregular flow of blood in an arteriovenous malformation (AVM)
  • In an aneurysm, stop the bleeding
  • Stop the bleeding in the intestines

What's the process?

A catheter-based technique called coil embolization enables accurate blockage of abnormal blood flow in a blood artery. An artery, typically the femoral artery in the groin, is punctured to insert a catheter equipped with a metallic occluding coil. Next, it is advanced to the blood vessel that is unusual. When the metal coil is in the right place, it is released and the vessel springs back into place. The metal coils' expansion keeps it firmly in place. The inappropriate blood flow beyond the coil will be totally blocked by a blood clot that forms on the coil. A permanent seal will eventually emerge in the shape of a scar.

In what location is the procedure carried out?

Within the lab for cardiac catheterization

What is the duration of this process?

Usually, coil embolization takes one to three hours.
