Flow diverter stent for the treatment of ruptured distal anterior cerebral artery: A retrospective multicenter analysis from CRETA registry.

ABSTRACT: BackgroundData on off-label use of flow diverter for ruptured distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysms (rDACAAs) are limited. The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of flow diversion for rDACAAs in a large multicenter cohort.MethodsA retrospective observational study on consecutive patients who were treated with flow diversion for rDACAAs at 8 centers in 4 countries was performed. Primary outcome was the occlusion rate of the target aneurysm at the last radiological follow-up. Secondary outcomes included good clinical outcome, retreatment, technical success, procedure-related complications, radiological outcome of the covered branches and mortality rate.ResultsA total of 21 patients with 21 rDACAAs were treated between January 2017 and December 2024.
