Flow Diverters for Intracranial Aneurysms

Flow diverters (pipeline embolization device, Silk flow diverter, and Surpass flow diverter) have been developed to treat intracranial aneurysms. These endovascular devices are placed within the parent artery rather than the aneurysm sac. They take advantage of altering hemodynamics at the aneurysm/parent vessel interface, resulting in gradual thrombosis of the aneurysm occurring over time. Sub...

Towards the patient-specific design of flow diverters made from helix-like wires: an optimization study

BACKGROUND Flow diverter (FD) intervention is an emerging endovascular technique for treating intracranial aneurysms. High flow-diversion efficiency is desired to accelerate thrombotic occlusion inside the aneurysm; however, the risk of post-stenting stenosis in the parent artery is posed when flow-diversion efficiency is pursued by simply decreasing device porosity. For improving the prognosis...

Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD ) Plane Poiseuille Flow With Variable Viscosity and Unequal Wall Temperatures

Flow Diverters in the Treatment of Pediatric Cerebrovascular Diseases.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE There is very limited data concerning utilization of flow diverters in children. Our aim is to report results for the treatment of complex intracranial aneurysms and carotid cavernous fistulas by using flow diverters in children. MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospective review of children (17 years of age or younger) treated with flow diverters between May 2011 and July 2014...
