“…Bacteremia and septicemia have been documented after diagnostic and therapeutic endovascular procedures, reportedly up to 32% of procedures lasting more than 2 hours in one series (2,36). Although uncommon, bacterial infection of implantable materials can occur (2,12,26,39) with potentially devastating results (13).…”

Second-generation aneurysm coils were developed to promote more durable occlusion of cerebral aneurysms by promoting more complete volumetric aneurysm occlusion or by eliciting a more prolific inflammatory response. The concurrent use of Hydrogel and Matrix coil systems in large aneurysms may cause an exuberant inflammatory response with both local and systemic manifestations. Although vigilant evaluation and treatment for presumptive bacterial meningitis is required in all such cases, patients respond to immunomodulatory therapy with corticosteroids. More information to understand better the interaction of Hydrogel and Matrix coils is needed.

“…Several mechanisms had been proposed. These included iatrogenic contamination [8,18,19], changes of the gastrointestinal barrier secondary to TAE facilitating bacteria translocation [9], seeding from contaminated bile in the situations of bile duct ischaemia, inflammation or injury [8,13,20], and decreased host resistance and immunity after TAE [9]. Enteric bacteria were generally considered as the main source of causative bacteria in post-TAE abscesses [8,11,17].…”

“…Therefore, despite the rarity of stent graft infection, most authors believe the high mortality justifies the use of prophylactic antibiotics. 19,28,101 Suggested regimens include 1 g cephazolin IV 19,26,28,93 or vancomycin or clindamycin in patients with penicillin allergy. 26 …”
