Abstract：Intracranial aneurysms carry a risk of rupture and pose a serious threat to human life and health.Clinical treatment options include interventional therapy and surgical clipping.Interventional therapy comprises aneurysm coiling and flow diverter implantation.Wide-neck intracranial aneurysms are difficult to treat with coiling alone and are often managed with stent-assisted coiling,which improves the aneurysm occlusion rate and reduces the risk of recurrence.Commonly used clinical stents for aneurysm-assisted coiling include laser-cut stents(LCS)and braided stents.Due to their unique advantages,such as stable support,accurate positioning,and low thrombogenicity,LCS are widely used.Common intracranial LCS include the Sol-itaire,Neuroform,and Enterprise stents,among which the Neuroform Atlas and Enterprise2 stents are two recently introduced LCS frequently used in clinical practice.This article reviews the characteristics,clinical applications,and complications of LCS.
