Background: To determine the clinical effects (stent size, and number of stents used) of the Sim&Size™ simulation software on the endovascular treatment of unruptured saccular intracranial aneurysms with Pipeline Embolization Devices (PED).
Methods: This study is a retrospective analytical multicenter study of patients treated with PED (Flex and Flex with SHIELD) for intracranial aneurysm in FOSCAL clinic and CHU de Montpellier.
Results: The study included 253 patients, of which 75 were treated in Colombia and 178 were treated in France.
Background: Few studies have compared the Pipeline Shield stents with previous generations of flow-diverting stents (FDSs) for the treatment of unruptured intracranial aneurysms. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Pipeline Shield stents and FDSs without modified surfaces.
Methods: The present evaluation is a retrospective cohort study of patients endovascularly treated with Pipeline Shield stents or FDSs without modified surfaces for unruptured intracranial aneurysms between January 2014 and June 2022.
Introduction: Intracranial aneurysms (IA) are a focal dilatation of the vessel wall, the rupture of these, causes subarachnoid hemorrhage. Until now, endovascular management is the ideal treatment, providing the interventionist a range of options among which the stent and coils embolization stands out because of its occlusion rate. This study presents the results of a retrospective cohort comparing the effectiveness, morbidity, and mortality of IA treatment with laser-cut stent-assisted coils versus braided stents.
