Stent-Assisted Coiling of a Sidewall Aneurysm of the Distal Middle Cerebral Artery: 2-Dimensional Operative Video

摘要

Sidewall aneurysm treatment often requires complex management strategies. These can include advanced clipping techniques or stent-assisted coiling techniques. Endovascular coiling alone has been associated with high recurrence rates and is often not feasible.(1-4) Flow-diversion embolization has recently become a standard of care for many aneurysms, demonstrating high occlusion rates.(4,5) However, the third generation of coil-assist stents can be delivered with 0.0165 '' microcatheters, being an ideal adjunct to manage this group of aneurysms in more distal locations.
