Background: Hemodynamic flow is one of the major factors in the progression and rupture of intracranial aneurysms (IA). Flow diverter devices (FD) reduce blood flow in the aneurysm sac, allow gradual stagnation, thrombosis and neointimal remodeling while maintain outflow in the side branches and perforators. Objectives: We present our experience and long-term follow-up on endovascular reconstruction of complexes IA using flow diverter device. Particularly we analyze our experience with (Pipeline endovascular device) PED. Methods: Since March 2006 to July 2015, 1000 patients (pt) with IA were treated with FD or FD/coils. Of this group 633 pt were with PED, 113 Surpass (SNEG), 111 P64, 78 Cardiatis, 40 WEB and others 25. Angiographic follow-up was performed at 3, 6, 12 months and yearly until 8 y Fup. An inclusion criteria was unfavorable anatomy for coil, dome to neck ratio ≥ 2, Neck ≥ 4 mm and recurrence following previous treatment. Results: We treated 633 Pt with 704 IA with 932 PED. (77 % female); mean age 55 y (range 7-88). History of SAH was present in 18,5%; 81,5% were unruptured IA; mass effect in 125 pt; incidental IA 96 pts; headache 77 pts, others 23 pts. Large/giant IA were present in 51,2%, and wide neck (>4mm) 65%. The technical success was 98,4%. Occlusion rate at 1yr was 90 % and 8 yr 100 %, without recurrences. Peri-procedural (30 days) morbi-mortality rate was 5.9%: 2.7% had definitive neurologic defects; death rate was 3.2%. Conclusion: Endovascular treatment of complex IA with FD is a safe, effective and stable procedure, with an acceptable morbi-mortality rate.

Abstract BACKGROUND Flow diverter (FD) treatment of ruptured fusiform posterior cerebral artery (PCA), posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA), and superior cerebellar artery (SCA) aneurysms are limited to single reports. OBJECTIVE To study the safety and efficacy of FD treatment for ruptured fusiform aneurysms of the PCA, SCA, and PICA. METHODS Five patients with ruptured posterior circulation fusiform aneurysms and treated with a Flow-Redirection Endoluminal Device (FRED/FRED Jr; Microvention, Tustin, California) stent in the acute phase of subarachnoid hemorrhage between 2013 and 2016 were included and reviewed retrospectively. RESULTS Two aneurysms located on the PICA, 2 on PCA, and 1 on the SCA. Mean treatment time with FD was 5.8 d (range, 0-11 d) from ictus. The technical success rate was 100%. On admission 2 patients were Hunt and Hess grade 1, 2 patients grade 3, and 1 patient grade 4. At discharge, 4 patients (80%) were independent (modified Ranking Scale (mRS) ≤2) and 1 patient had severe disability (mRS 4). None of the patients had aneurysmal rebleeding. All 5 aneurysms were completely occluded on angiographic follow-up (range, 3-22 mo). One patient had permanent intraprocedural in stent thrombosis and brain infarction. One patient had spontaneous nonaneurysmal intracerebral hemorrhage 1 mo after FD treatment. External ventricular drainage was inserted in 3 patients and ventriculoperitoneal shunt in 2 patients without hemorrhagic complications despite dual antiplatelet therapy. CONCLUSION FD could be considered as a treatment option for ruptured fusiform aneurysms located on PCA, PICA, or SCA when other treatment options are challenging.

Abstract Dissecting aneurysm located in the peripheral region of the superior cerebellar artery is very rare. There is little experience regarding their surgical or endovascular treatment. We present the case of a peripheral dissecting superior cerebellar artery aneurysm treated by surgical clipping.
