This multicenter retrospective cohort study aims to evaluate and compare the technical performance, safety, and clinical outcomes of intracranial aneurysms treated with flow diverter stents and endosaccular flow disruptors.
Flow diverters and endosaccular flow disruptors used for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms exhibit distinct procedural and clinical outcomes, with potential differences in device-specific parameters such as procedure time, radiation exposure, adjunct device requirements, and long-term angiographic success. Since the completion of the Pipeline Embolization Device (PED) for the Intracranial Treatment of Aneurysms trial, the field of flow diversion has undergone continuous evolution with the development and approval of several devices. While these devices share a similar mechanism for aneur…
