Abstract
Flow diverter (FD) is increasingly used in the management of wide necked cerebral aneurysms. Despite a reported lower efficacy in middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms, they are still being utilised. Microsurgery is best considered as an index treatment, but can also be a safe and effective treatment when encountering a persistent MCA aneurysm after prior FD. As there is a paucity in literature and more cases of failed FD are expected to appear, we want to add our experience to the existing literature. The microsurgical management of a persistent MCA bifurcation aneurysm, 3 years after a p48 MW HPC Flow Diverter (phenox GmbH, Bochum Germany) insertion is reported and the relevant literature discussed.
