Flow diverter versus stent-assisted coiling treatment for managing dissecting intracranial aneurysms: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Dissecting intracranial aneurysms (DIAs) have been treated through endovascular reconstructive manners, such as flow diverters (FDs) and stent-assisted coiling (SAC). Notably, no robust evidence has compared both approaches. Hence, the authors conducted a meta-analysis to compare their outcomes.

Sole Stenting versus Stent-Assisted Coiling for Treating Dissecting Posterior Circulation Aneurysms: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Background: Among the reconstructive methods for treating dissecting posterior circulation aneurysms, there are stent-assisted coiling (SAC), and sole stenting (SS) therapy. Despite SAC being widely employed when compared to SS, no study systematically analyzed the difference in their outcomes.

Methods: The authors conducted a meta-analysis of studies employing both therapies to compare their outcomes.
