Objectives: Various endovascular approaches have been reported for patients with intracranial aneurysms. However, the safety of navigating a microcatheter into the aneurysm remains debatable. In this study, we evaluated a novel method "dunk shot technique," in which a proximal balloon and a local balloon are used for navigation of a microcatheter into an aneurysm under challenging situations.

However, there remain a few issues relating to the handling of DBE, such as attaching a balloon to the tip of the scope, and inflating/deflating the two balloon systems. Recently, we developed a novel single-balloon enteroscopy (SBE) system for the examination of the small intestine.

A novel sheath has been developed to prevent the outflow of debris or thrombus to the central vein. The catheter consists of a 5 F sheath introducer and a silicone balloon attached at the tip of the sheath.
