Pipeline versus non-pipeline flow diverter treatment for M1 aneurysms: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: BackgroundThe flow diversion treatment of aneurysms located distal to the Circle of Willis has recently increased in frequency. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of the clinical and radiological outcomes of flow diverter (FD) embolization in treating M1 aneurysms.MethodsPubMed, Web of Science, Ovid Medline, Ovid Embase, and Scopus were searched up to May 2024 using the Nested Knowledge platform. We included studies assessing the long-term clinical and radiological outcomes for M1 aneurysms. Results of FDs classified as Pipeline Embolization Devices (PED) versus other types of FDs. Angiographic occlusion rates, ischemic and hemorrhagic complications, and favorable clinic outcomes were included. All data were analyzed using R software version 4.2.2.ResultsThirteen studies wi
