BACKGROUND AND IMPORTANCE: Fusiform middle cerebral artery (MCA) bifurcation aneurysms can be challenging to treat with standard endovascular or microsurgical techniques. The in situ side-to-side bypass technique represents an elegant revascularization option for these when trapping becomes necessary. CLINICAL PRESENTATION: A man his 50s presented evaluation of incidentally found fusiform, 10 mm, right MCA aneurysm involvement both the inferior and superior M2 trunks. Plan was initially made...
Background Intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) is a leading cause of stroke, often refractory to aggressive medical therapy. Recent advancements in drug-eluting stents (DES) show promise for improved efficacy intracranial applications relative traditional ICAD treatments. Methods We retrospectively collected all consecutive deployments the Onyx Frontier [Medtronic, Santa Rosa, CA] stent setting between August 2022 and 2024 at six high-volume neuro-interventional centers across US....
Introduction The Flow Re-direction Endoluminal Device (FRED) is a novel flow diverter with unique double stent design, an inner composed of 48 nitinol wires, and outer 16 wires. It designed for endovascular cerebral aneurysm treatment, although, limited data exist regarding in-stent stenosis (ISS) rates associated FRED devices. Methods A registry encompassing two North American comprehensive stroke centers was the base this study. We longitudinally assessed patients implanted devices,...
