Giant intracranial aneurysms represent a very challenging aspect of aneurysmal pathophysiology with very high mortality and morbidity if left untreated. Their variety in clinical presentation (subarachnoid hemorrhage, cranial nerve palsy, etc.) and pathological and imaging properties (location, anatomy, presence of collateral circulation) pose serious questions regarding the best treatment option. Admirable advances have been achieved in surgical techniques, while endovascular modalities with flow diversion techniques have become widely used. However, there is still lack of data regarding whether a single endovascular technique can be the universal treatment for such cases. In this review, we aim to summarize the current funds of knowledge concerning giant intracranial aneurysms and the role of endovascular management in their treatment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
