supraclinoid aneurysmvery smallThe endovascular treatment of very small aneurysms (lesions less than 3 mm in maximum diameter) with wide necks remains a challenge for saccular embolization. We retrospectively analyzed our data using Neuroform stent-assisted coiling for very small supraclinoid aneurysms ...
neurologic symptom of ischemic stroke occurred in any patients.Conclusion The preliminary results demonstrate good efficacy and feasibility of Neuroform stent-assisted coiling in the treatment of supraclinoid micro aneurysms.Subtotal aneurysm occlusion might progress to total occlusion during long term follow...
These fragile broad-based aneurysms have a propensity to rupture with minimal manipulation during surgical or endovascular explorations because, unlike saccular aneurysms, they lack all layers of the arterial wall. Aneurysm trapping with extracranial-intracranial (EC-IC) bypass is a safe and durable ...
CONCLUSIONS: In the presence of SAH and otherwise negative findings on CTA, a catheter cerebral angiogram should be performed to absolutely exclude an ICA blister aneurysm. Abbreviations: CTA, CT angiography • DSA, digital subtraction angiography • ICA, internal carotid artery • MIP, maximum...
Patients who had undergone stent reconstruction of supraclinoid ICA "blister-like" aneurysms were included. Long-term clinical and angiographic data was obtained and analyzed. Results Eight patients were identified (mean age 61.1 years; five female, three male) who underwent stent reconstruction using...
RESULTS: All 6 blister aneurysms were located in the supraclinoid ICA. The stent-in-stent technique was used for the initial treatment of all patients. Three patients had no residual or recurrent aneurysm following initial treatment. Three patients required retreatment with coils after continued growt...
