The p48 MW HPC is a novel low-profile flow diverter covered by a hydrophilic polymer coating with antithrombogenic properties, which may reduce ischemic complications and enable a single antiplatelet therapy after insertion of the stent. In this single-center experience, we describe the efficacy of this device, focusing on the illustration of different therapeutic indications and the outcome in various clinical settings with regard to vessel anatomy, bleeding state, and aneurysm configuration. We retrospectively reviewed our database for all patients being treated with a p48 MW HPC flow diverter between February 2019 and July 2021.

Management of Anterior Choroidal Artery Aneurysms: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

Brain Sci

December 2024

Division of Neurointerventional Radiology, UMass-Chan Lahey Department of Radiology, Lahey Hospital and Medical Centre-Beth Israel Lahey Health, Burlington, MA 01805, USA.

Anterior choroidal artery (AChoA) aneurysms pose a challenge for both endovascular and clipping procedures. The eloquent territory supplied by the parent vessel has limited collateralization and its compromise can lead to significant morbidity. This study aims to analyze the clinical outcomes and procedure-related complications of clipping and endovascular treatment of AChoA aneurysms to aid physician decision making.

Intercostal artery aneurysms are a type of vascular abnormality that poses a potential risk of rupture, which could lead to life-threatening hemothorax. This case report presents a young male who experienced a rupture of an intercostal artery aneurysm and subsequently suffered from a massive hemothorax after engaging in strenuous physical activity. The current case study sheds light on the difficulties and lessons learned in managing such cases in peripheral settings, including the dilemma of whether to insert an intercostal chest drain (ICD).

Delayed Aneurysm Rupture Following Endovascular Treatment with Contour Device: A Case Report.

Neurointervention

January 2025

Department of Neuroradiology, Neuroscience Institute, Hamad Medical Corporation, Hamad General Hospital, Doha, Qatar.

Delayed rupture of intracranial aneurysms after endovascular treatment is a rare but serious complication. We report the first documented case of late aneurysmal rupture following treatment with a Contour intrasaccular device. A patient in their 60s with a basilar tip aneurysm underwent endovascular treatment using a 14-mm Contour device.
