Endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms with silk vista baby flow diverter: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The Silk Vista Baby (SVB) flow diverter (FD) is a stent designed for small vessels ranging from 1.5 to 3.5 mm. It is the only FD deliverable through a 0.017-inch microcatheter. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the SVB utilization in intracranial aneurysms (IAs).

Methods

Four electronic databases, PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and Web of Science, were searched from inception to November 5^th, 2024.

Results

Ten studies with 359 patients with 373 IAs were included. Our results revealed a pooled complete occlusion rate of 65% (95%CI: 43%-83%), a favorable outcome rate of 94% (95%CI: 83%-100%), and a morbidity rate of 4% (95%CI: 0%-11%). Our meta-analysis revealed a pooled in-stent thrombosis rate of 2% (95%CI: 1%-5%), side branch occ
