European Multicenter Study for the Evaluation of a Dual-Layer Flow-Diverting Stent for Treatment of Wide-Neck Intracranial Aneurysms: The European Flow-Redirection Intraluminal Device Study

Editor’s Choice Consecutive patients with intracranial aneurysms treated with the FRED between February 2012 and March 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. Complications and adverse events, transient and permanent morbidity, mortality, and occlusion rates were evaluated. A total of 579 aneurysms in

Accuracy of CT Angiography for Differentiating Pseudo-Occlusion from True Occlusion or High-Grade Stenosis of the Extracranial ICA in Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Retrospective MR CLEAN Substudy

Fellows’ Journal Club All patients from the Multicenter Randomized Clinical Trial of Endovascular Treatment for Acute Ischemic Stroke in the Netherlands (MR CLEAN) with an apparent ICA occlusion on CTA and available DSA images were included. Two independent observers classified

Feasibility of Permanent Stenting with Solitaire FR as a Rescue Treatment for the Reperfusion of Acute Intracranial Artery Occlusion

Fellows’ Journal Club From January 2011 through January 2016, among 2979 patients with acute ischemic stroke, the authors identified 27 patients who underwent permanent stent placement (13 patients with the Solitaire FR and 14 patients with other self-expanding stents). The

Two-Center Experience in the Endovascular Treatment of Ruptured and Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms Using the WEB Device: A Retrospective Analysis

Fellows’ Journal Club The authors performed a retrospective analysis of all ruptured and unruptured aneurysms treated with a WEB device between August 2014 and February 2017. Primary outcome measures included the feasibility of implantation and the angiographic outcome. Secondary outcome

Predictors of Incomplete Occlusion following Pipeline Embolization of Intracranial Aneurysms: Is It Less Effective in Older Patients?

Editor’s Choice This was a retrospective analysis of 465 consecutive aneurysms treated with the Pipeline Embolization Device between 2009 and 2016, at 3 academic institutions in the United States. Cases with angiographic follow-up were selected to evaluate factors predictive of

Comparison of Clinical Outcomes of Intracranial Aneurysms: Procedural Rupture versus Spontaneous Rupture

Fellows’ Journal Club This was a retrospective review of 1340 patients with 1595 unruptured saccular intracranial aneurysms that underwent endovascular coil embolization between February 2010 and December 2014. The clinical outcomes of patients with procedural rupture of saccular intracranial aneurysms

Angioarchitectures and Hemodynamic Characteristics of Posterior Communicating Artery Aneurysms and Their Association with Rupture Status

Editor’s Choice The authors studied 313 posterior communicating artery aneurysms (145 ruptured, 168 unruptured) with image-based computational fluid dynamics. Aneurysms were classified into different angioarchitecture types depending on the location of the aneurysm with respect to parent artery bifurcation. Ruptured
