Endovascular treatments for posterior cerebral artery aneurysms and vascular insufficiency of fetal-type circulation after parent artery occlusion

Highlights • We treated 10 cases of posterior cerebral artery (PCA) aneurysms with endovascular procedures. • Endovascular therapy with selective coil embolization is safe and effective. • Parent artery occlusion for adult-type PCA aneurysm is safe and effective. • Vascular insufficiency after paren...

Description
Summary:Highlights • We treated 10 cases of posterior cerebral artery (PCA) aneurysms with endovascular procedures. • Endovascular therapy with selective coil embolization is safe and effective. • Parent artery occlusion for adult-type PCA aneurysm is safe and effective. • Vascular insufficiency after parent artery occlusion occurs for a fetal-type PCA. • We should attempt to preserve the parent artery for a fetal-type PCA aneurysm.
