| Popis: | The ultimate aims of treatment of the intracranial aneurysms are reconstruction the vessel wall and correcting the hemodynamic disturbance. A flow diverter (FD) is a stent placed inside lumen of the parent artery with aim to blood flow reduction into the aneurysms sac to the extent of almost stagnation leading to gradual onset of progressive thrombosis and neointimal lining of arterial wall remodeling to maintain blood outflow into perforators the side and branches. Flow diverter is considered as an effective treatment for fusiform, wide-necked, large and giant intracranial unruptured aneurysms. However, FD implantation may also be associated with growth and rupture of residual aneurysms. The most frequent complication of endovascular aneurysms management is thromboembolic events and less common are intra and postoperative hemorrhagic aneurysmal rupture. Authors report a case where a lack of operation of the device as illustration is presented to demonstrate the shortcomings of this new type of devices. |
