What the trial is, and whether it could suit you
Intracranial aneurysm, as a common cerebrovascular disease, has a variety of treatment methods, including surgical treatment and endovascular treatment. Among these treatment methods, flow diverters have attracted much attention due to their unique therapeutic principles. Flow diverters help promote thrombus formation within the aneurysm by altering the direction and dynamics of blood flow, thereby achieving the purpose of treatment. 1-5 Flow diverters such as the Pipelineโข device have been proven to be safe and effective for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms and have gradually been recognized as the preferred device for the management of intracranial aneurysms.
