Objective: To examine the influence of flow diverter on the alterations of cerebral intra-aneurysmal hemodynamics.
Methods: One wide-necked and one narrow-necked sidewall aneurysm in curved vessels were virtually reconstructed. Pulsatile computational fluid simulations were performed on each model for hemodynamic analysis. And the flow diverters were virtually deployed to cover the aneurysmal neck with parent vessels. The hemodynamic changes in parent vessels and aneurysms after a deployment of flow diverter devices with low porosity were studied by the Fluent software.
Results: After a deployment of flow diverter, the hemodynamics in aneurysm sac changed significantly. The peak velocity and wall stress strength in impingement zone of narrow-necked aneurysms decreased after the placement of a flow diverter. And similar change also occurred in wide-necked aneurysms, but with a less decreased span.
Conclusion: Numerical simulation confirms that a flow diverter with low porosity significantly may modify the hemodynamics in aneurysms. Which is important for prevention of bleeding or rebleeding of intracranial aneurysm.

Institute of Neurointervention, Paracelsus Medical University, Salzburg, Austria.
Background And Purpose: This study evaluates the early clinical performance of the new Artisse Intrasaccular Device (Artisse ISD), a self-expandable intrasaccular flow diverter, for treating wide-necked aneurysms (WNAs). We report initial safety and efficacy outcomes in the first cohort of patients treated with this novel device.
Methods: Prospective clinical and radiological data were collected for all patients treated with the Artisse ISD at three Austrian neurovascular centers from July 2023 to August 2024.

Background: Flow diverters (FDs) have been introduced for the management of large or giant cavernous carotid aneurysms (CCAs) in addition to conventional modalities, dramatically changing treatment strategies. The aim of this study was to examine the management of unruptured large/giant CCAs in Japan when FDs were being introduced using a nationwide survey.
Methods: 540 unruptured large/giant CCAs treated at neurosurgical teaching departments in Japan between 2012 and 2016 were retrospectively studied.

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the indications and therapeutic efficacy of flow-diverting stents (FDSs) in the management of extracranial carotid artery aneurysms (ECAAs) and dissections.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 18 patients treated for ECAAs with an FDS between 2010 and 2024. Patient demographics, aneurysm characteristics, procedural details, and clinical and radiologic follow-up outcomes were extracted from medical records.

Objective: In recent years, the application of robotic assistance in diagnostic and therapeutic endovascular neurointerventional procedures has gained notable attention. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we aim to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and current indications of robotic-assisted neurointerventions and to assess the degree of robotic assistance and reasons for unplanned manual conversion from robotic assistance.
Methods: We searched Medline, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases following PRISMA guidelines and included studies with ≥ 4 patients reporting on robotic-assisted neurointerventions.
