Case report demonstrates safety and efficacy of flow-diversion devices in complex intracranial artery lesions, indicating a potential for broader use.
Over the past decade, flow-diversion devices (FDD) have emerged as a novel treatment modality for intracranial aneurysms. To address the need for safer application of FDD in more complex scenarios (such as tortuous, distal, overlapping, or multiple aneurysms), we report a case of FDD placement in a 49-year-old patient with an intracranial artery dissection complicated by vertebral artery dissection. This demonstrates the safety and efficacy of FDD in treating complex intracranial artery lesions.
