Background: Wide-necked aneurysms remain challenging for both coiling and microsurgical clipping. They often require additional techniques to prevent coil prolapse into the parent artery, such as balloon- and stent-assisted coiling. Comaneci is an expandable and removable stent that acts as a bridging device and does not interfere with the blood flow of the parent artery.

In this study the authors present a literature review and meta-analysis, adding a retrospective review of institutional registry on emergency treatment of aRIA with flow diverter stent.
Materials And Methods: A systematic search of PubMed, SCOPUS, Ovid MEDLINE, and Ovid EMBASE was performed on April 20, 2021, extrapolating 35 articles.
Background And Objective: To describe our single-center experience in the treatment of cavernous internal carotid artery (ICA) acute bleeding with flow diverter stent (FDS), as a single endovascular procedure or combined with an endoscopic endonasal approach.
Methods: We analyze a case series of 5 patients with cavernous ICA acute bleeding, i.e.
Background: A direct carotid-cavernous fistula (CCF) is a rare complication that typically occurs in closed head injuries. The balloon-assisted occlusion is the most used treatment. However, this technique requires multiple inflation/deflations, which could be problematic in a vessel with acute vessel injury.
