Flow diversion for posterior circulation intracranial aneurysms: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Background Posterior circulation (PC) aneurysms are associated with a higher risk of rupture. Flow diverters (FDs) are widely used for carotid intracranial aneurysms, but their role in PC aneurysms is ...

Optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy for stent-assisted coiling or flow diverter placement
Background Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is necessary to prevent thromboembolic complications after stent-assisted coiling (SAC) or flow-diversion (FD) for cerebral aneurysms, but the optimal ...
