New detachable coils for treating cerebral aneurysmsLee H. MonseinDepartment of Radiology, Johns Hopkins Hospital, 600 North Wolfe Street, B112C Houck, Baltimore, Maryland 21287, USA A new minimally invasive device for the treatment of cerebral aneurysms called the Guglielmi detachable coil (CDC) system is described. A brief history of aneurysm treatment and the advantages of the new system are reported.
