Flow Diverters for Treatment of 160 Ophthalmic Segment Aneurysms: Evaluation of Safety and Efficacy in a Multicenter Cohort.
Treatment of ophthalmic segment aneurysms (OSA) remains challenging. Flow diverter stents (FDS) have evolved as a promising endovascular treatment option for aneurysms of the internal carotid artery and are associated with high occlusion rates and a favorable morbidity and mortality profile. ⋯ Treatment of OSA with FDS was found to be safe and effective. The retreatment rate was extremely low and aneurysms that occluded did not reanalyze.
