Surgical clipping versus endovascular coiling for elderly patients presenting with subarachnoid hemorrhage.
The authors studied elderly Medicare patients who underwent treatment for ruptured cerebral aneurysms. They did not demonstrate a difference in mortality, rate of discharge to rehabilitation, and readmissions between surgical clipping and endovascular coiling of ruptured cerebral aneurysms, although clipping was associated with a slightly longer length of stay.
AHRQ-funded; HS021581.
