Kissing Aneurysms at Fenestrated Proximal Basilar Artery: Double-barrel Stent-assisted Coiling Using Dual Closed-cell Stents
نویسندگان
چکیده
Kissing aneurysms associated with a proximal basilar artery fenestration are an exceedingly rare and unique therapeutic challenge due to anatomical complexity. This report describes double-barrel stent-assisted technique with dual closed-cell stents for the successful endovascular coiling of kissing aneurysms from a proximal basilar artery fenestration.

Double Microcatheter-Assisted Coiling of a Basilar Artery Fenestration Aneurysm
The incidence of basilar artery fenestration is approximately 0.6% in angiographic studies and more in autopsy studies [1]. The most common site of basilar artery fenestration is proximal part [2]. Basilar artery fenestration aneurysms are very rare, posing unique challenges. Reported incidence of aneurysm at basilar artery fenestration site is 7% [3]. Surgical treatment of such aneurysm is usu...
متن کاملDouble-barrel Y-configuration Stenting for Flow Diversion of a Giant Recurrent Basilar Apex Aneurysm with the Pipeline Flex Embolization Device
Giant basilar apex aneurysms are extremely challenging to successfully manage. The Pipeline Flex embolization device (PFED) is a new generation flow-diverting stent with a modified delivery system which allows resheathing of the stent after partial deployment. We describe a case of double-barrel Y-configuration stenting of a giant, recurrent basilar apex aneurysm using the PFED. A 73-year-old m...

متن کاملHorizontal Stent Assisted Coiling of Wide Neck Basilar Tip Aneurysm: Comparison of Two Cases
Currently, endovascular coiling is a popular treatment for basilar tip aneurysms, which usually involve a wide neck. Serious complications can occur when the posterior cerebral artery (PCA) originating from a wide neck is not properly preserved. Accordingly, various adjunctive procedures using stents or a balloon have been introduced. Herein we report two cases of basilar tip aneurysms in which...
متن کاملA novel "Y" stent flow diversion technique for the endovascular treatment of bifurcation aneurysms without endosaccular coiling.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Stent-assisted endovascular treatment and flow diversion techniques are increasingly used for the management of wide-neck intracranial aneurysms. We report our initial clinical experience using a new flow diversion technique for the endovascular management of bifurcation aneurysms. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eight bifurcation aneurysms were treated by placing 2 stents in Y-c...
