Flow diversion in the treatment of intracranial aneurysms using the novel FRED X device: An early experience from a single high-volume center.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The Flow Re-Direction Endoluminal Device X (FRED X) offers several benefits over other flow-diverter devices including an antithrombotic coating, optimized in-vessel stability, and increased flexibility for easier device placement. We present a to-date experience of the safety and utility of the FRED X device in the repair of posterior and anterior circulation aneurysms.

Methods

A retrospective review was conducted on all endovascular procedures that utilized the FRED X device at our center from May 2022 to November 2023.

Results

77 patients (72.7% women, mean age 58.9), underwent a total of 85 procedures using the FRED X device. Indications included treatment of incidentally discovered aneurysms, acute dissections, aneurysm rupture, repair of residual fill
