Deployment of low-profile flow-diverter through a double lumen balloon catheter (remo-diversion technique) to treat recurrent middle cerebral artery bifurcation aneurysm: A technical note

Interv Neuroradiol. 2024 Feb;30(1):120-124. doi: 10.1177/15910199221091647. Epub 2022 Mar 31.

Abstract

Wide neck intracranial aneurysms are often difficult to treat with coiling alone, and sophisticated techniques such as balloon-assisted coiling, stent-assisted coiling, flow-diversion, or intrasaccular flow-disruption are sometimes required.This technical note reports the endovascular treatment of a recurrent middle cerebral bifurcation aneurysm by remodeling technique followed by flow-diverter (Silk Vista Baby) deployment through a remodeling balloon (double lumen balloon Eclipse 2L).

Keywords: Single lumen balloon catheter; balloon-assisted coiling; dual lumen balloon catheter; flow-diverter.
