Ruptured Anterior Communicating Artery Aneurysm Associated with von Willebrand Disease Treated Using the Woven EndoBridge Device: An Illustrated Case

Key Points

To explore the management of a ruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysm in a patient with von Willebrand disease.
Illustrated case report of a patient with ruptured aneurysm and VWD
Description of the Woven EndoBridge device used for treatment
Discussion on perioperative management strategies for VWD patients
Successful treatment of the ruptured aneurysm using the Woven EndoBridge device
Demonstrated the complexities involved in managing patients with VWD during endovascular procedures
Highlights the need for optimal perioperative strategies in this unique patient population

Abstract

Objective: Von Willebrand disease (VWD) is an inherited bleeding disorder caused by quantitative or qualitative deficiencies in von Willebrand factor (VWF). Reports of intracranial aneurysms complicated by VWD, particularly ruptured aneurysms, are rare. Optimal perioperative management during endovascular treatment in this patient group remains unclear.
