Data from Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center Provide New Insights into Aneurysm (Stent-retriever Anchor Technique for Pipeline Embolization of a Large Posterior Communicating Artery Aneurysm: 2-dimensional Operative Video).

A new study from Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston, Massachusetts explores the use of a stent-retriever anchor technique for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. The technique involves anchoring a microcatheter within the aneurysm dome to facilitate the correct deployment of a flow-diverting stent. The researchers present a case study of a 57-year-old woman with a large right-communicating segment internal carotid aneurysm who underwent this procedure. The study describes the technique and its benefits, providing valuable insights into the treatment of aneurysms. [Extracted from the article]
