Endovascular Coiling Cost in India

The cost of Endovascular Coiling in India typically ranges from $6,000 to $12,000 USD, depending on the hospital, city, and type of procedure.

Endovascular coiling treats a brain aneurysm by filling it with soft platinum coils, delivered through a catheter. The cost depends on:

• Number of coils
• Extra devices: stents, flow diverters or WEB devices.
• Ruptured or unruptured: a bleed needs intensive care.
• Hospital stay

UCLH explains that coiling is done under general anaesthetic. A catheter is passed through the groin or wrist to the aneurysm, and coils are packed in to stop blood flowing into it. It usually takes 1 to 3 hours, and patients stay at least one day.

UCLH reports a stroke risk of about 5 in 100. If a stent is used, two blood thinners are taken for months, which raises bleeding risk. Flow diverters and WEB devices are alternatives for some aneurysms.

Plan at least one to two weeks off work, according to UCLH. Headaches and groin or wrist bruising are common. Seek urgent help for a severe headache, vomiting or drowsiness. Follow-up scans check that the aneurysm stays sealed.
