? 2022 The Author(s)Objective: De novo bleb formation at the aneurysm neck after coil embolization of unruptured intracranial aneurysms is a rarely observed type of recurrence. The aim of this study was to elucidate the clinical characteristics of recurrent aneurysms in the long-term period. Methods: Between January 2002 and December 2015, 290 unruptured intracranial aneurysms were treated with coil embolization at our institution. Patients who underwent retreatment due to aneurysm recurrence were divided into 2 patterns of recanalization: de novo bleb formation at the neck of a coiled sac (type DNV) and an enlarged residual cavity without de novo bleb formation (type non-DNV). Results: Twenty-seven patients with aneurysms (9.3%) underwent retreatment (type DNV, 7; type non-DNV, 20). The initial aneurysm size of type DNV aneurysms was significantly smaller than that of type non-DNV (6.1 ± 2.2 mm vs. 10.1 ± 3.6 mm; P < 0.01), and time to retreatment in type DNV was significantly longer than that in type non-DNV (9.4 ± 5.3 years vs. 2.0 ± 2.0 years; P < 0.01). Two type DNV basilar artery (BA) aneurysms ruptured after a few years; however, the other type DNV aneurysms, including 4 anterior circulation aneurysms (including the internal carotid artery), were observed to grow gradually without rupture for >10 years until retreatment. Conclusions: De novo bleb formation at the neck of a coiled sac emerges with insidious growth during long-term follow-up. Constant caution should be exercised, even in cases of small- and medium-sized anterior circulation aneurysms. A risk of rupture risk may be anticipated, especially in BA lesions.
