Possibility of Worsening Flow Diversion Effect Due to Morphological Changes of a Stented Artery With Multiple Overlapping Stents for Partially Thrombosed Vertebral Artery Aneurysms

Possibility of Worsening Flow Diversion Effect Due to Morphological Changes of a Stented Artery With Multiple Overlapping Stents for Partially Thrombosed Vertebral Artery Aneurysms

Background: Morphological changes of a stented artery can cause a flow diversion effect to reduce intra-aneurysmal flow; however, there is a potential for the negative effect of increased intra-aneurysmal flow. We present cases with multiple overlapping stents for a partially thrombosed vertebral ar...
