Thromboembolic complications are a concern in the treatment of cerebral aneurysms using a flow diverter. In this study, we report a case of abnormal foreshortening of a Flow Re-Direction Endoluminal Device (FRED) caused by in-stent thrombosis immediately after its deployment. A 72-year-old woman had a large cavernous carotid aneurysm, which caused ptosis and diplopia. FRED deployment was planned, and dual antiplatelet therapy was initiated 2 weeks before the procedure. Under systemic heparinization, FRED was deployed with local compaction over the aneurysm orifice. Cone-beam computed tomography subsequently revealed slightly poor wall apposition at the proximal side. While the balloon catheter was prepared for angioplasty, the stent became abnormally foreshortened, the proximal side slipped into the aneurysm, and the internal carotid artery became occluded. FRED was removed using a snare wire, and recanalization was obtained. The lumen of the removed FRED was filled with thrombus. The antiplatelet therapy was changed to triple regimen, and a Pipeline Flex embolization device was placed 1 month later. At that time, no thromboembolic complications were noted. It was considered that thrombotic occlusion was followed by foreshortening of FRED on the distal side because of antegrade blood flow. Multiple factors, such as increased mesh density by locally compacted stent deployment, slightly poor wall apposition, clopidogrel resistance, and the dual-layer structure of FRED, may have been involved in thrombus formation. |
