We describe a clinical case of successful treatment of a female patient with a giant paraclinoid aneurysm of the right ICA. The aneurysm had a pseudotumoral course and manifested as pronounced progressive visual impairments. The patient underwent microsurgery including trapping/clipping of the right ICA aneurysm after creation of an EICMA and a high-flow anastomosis between the ECA and the M2 segment of the MCA. The surgery enabled decompression of the optic nerves, avoiding their injury. Postoperatively, the patient underwent transcutaneous electrical stimulation of the optic nerves. The case feature was that the patient developed gradual restoration of the blind eye vision.

Objective: Flow diversion is increasingly used as an endovascular treatment for intracranial aneurysms. FRED-EPI is a prospective, multicenter, French study, conducted to analyze the safety and efficacy of aneurysm treatment with FRED/FRED Jr (Microvention, AlisoViejo, CA, USA) in current clinical practice.
Patients And Methods: Patients with intracranial aneurysms treated with FRED and FRED Jr who agreed to participate were prospectively and consecutively included in all French centers using these devices.

Background: In this study, we aimed to comparatively evaluate the morphology of internal carotid artery (ICA) bifurcations with and without aneurysms and identify risk factors for aneurysm development that are associated with the bifurcation geometry.
Method: In this two-center study, the computerized tomography angiography data of 1512 patients were evaluated. The study included 64 (4.

Background: Past studies have reported that vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia (VBD) patients may develop similar arteriopathies other than the vertebrobasilar system. However, the details of these VBD-related arteriopathies are still unclear.
Methods: We retrospectively enrolled patients diagnosed with VBD at two stroke centers in Japan between January 2012 and December 2023.
