Pre-Interventional 3D-Printing-Assisted Planning of Flow Disrupter Implantation for the Treatment of an Intracranial Aneurysm.

Intrasaccular flow disrupter devices (ISFD) have opened up new ways to treat intracranial aneurysms but choosing the correct size of ISFD can be challenging. We describe the first use of 3D printing to assist in the choice of ISFD, and we report an illustrative case. We developed a technique that uses preoperative angiography to make a plastic model of the aneurysm.
