Evaluation of flow changes after telescopic stenting of a giant fusiform aneurysm of the vertebrobasilar junction

Abstract Background The use of flow-diverters for non-saccular cerebral posterior circulation aneurysms requires complex deployment techniques and is associated with high mortality and morbidity. Therefore, further studies are required to clarify the effect of stenting on post-treatment hemodynamics...
