Excerpt
Acutely ruptured complex aneurysms of the anterior cerebral artery (ACA) not eligible for simple coil embolization remain a therapeutic challenge, either by endovascular or surgical methods. Flow diverting stents (FDSs) allow parent artery reconstruction without the need of aneurysm-catheterization or parent vessel occlusion [
1,
2]. By forming high-coverage mesh along the aneurysm, blood flow into the sac or fusiform part is restricted, and subsequently aneurysm thrombosis induced [
