Treatment of distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysms with the Pipeline Embolization Device

Highlights • Aneurysms of the distal anterior cerebral artery (ACA) remain challenging to treat. • Minimally porus endoluminal devices may be used for distal ACA aneurysms. • Smaller diameter PEDs can be safely deployed in arteries smaller than 2 mm.
