An email survey yielded over 900 responses from neuroradiologists with regard to their experiences and attitudes about the medicolegal environment. Nearly one-half of neuroradiologists had been sued once, while over 10% had been sued more than 3 times with payouts in the range of US $50,000–$150,000 and up to $1.2 million for lawsuits affecting interventional neuroradiologists. Over 80% of neuroradiologists opined that the system was weighted toward plaintiffs and nearly 20% expressed being extremely concerned about being sued.

These authors analyzed data on 131 non-selected MCA aneurysms treated during a 6-year period. One month after treatment, permanent morbidity and mortality was 3.3% without significant differences according to technique used. The rate of recanalization was nearly 16%, also without differences according to technique, and re-treatment was needed in 7.6% of cases. A greater rate of complications occurred with balloon remodeling and only large aneurysm size predicted recanalization. The authors concluded that endovascular treatment of MCA aneurysms is safe, effective, and durable.
