A Case of Delayed Intraparenchymal Hemorrhage Due to Hyperperfusion After Flow Diverter Treatment.

Delayed intraparenchymal hemorrhage (DIPH) is one of the complications of flow diverter (FD) treatment, however, the mechanism is unclear. We present the case of a 54-year-old woman with a partially thrombosed large internal carotid artery aneurysm. She presented intraparenchymal hemorrhage in the right parietal lobe three days after the successful FD treatment. We performed endoscopic hematoma removal, and then her consciousness disturbance was fully recovered. IMP single-photon emission computed tomography showed significant increase of cerebral blood flow in the right hemisphere. We diagnosed DIPH associated with hyperperfusion after FD treatment. It is necessary to consider that DIPH due to hyperperfusion may occur after FD treatment.
