Study shows comparable long-term occlusion rates for aneurysms in patients, suggesting effectiveness of flow diverters.
FD for branch-incorporated aneurysms demonstrated a low aneurysm occlusion rate in the short-to intermediate-term (6-12 months). However, long-term occlusion rates were comparable to those reported in the literature. In 23% of patients, the incorporated branches were occluded along with the aneurysm; none of these resulted in a permanent neurological deficit.
