Adjunctive therapies were required in 6 (25%) patients, including 4 cases where intra-arterial abciximab was administered for the treatment of intraprocedural thromboembolic events. Technique-related complication rate and the 30-day mortality rate were each 4% (1\/24). Follow-up imaging revealed 1 case of delayed in-stent thrombosis resulting in permanent disability of the patient, 1 asymptomatic occlusion, and 1 asymptomatic stenosis of the stented artery. Complete occlusion of the aneurysm with fully patent parent artery was observed in 16 of the 23 aneurysms (70%) where follow-up images were available.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Many previously untreatable cerebral aneurysms may be successfully treated with the Silk flow-diverting stent, but the associated risk of thromboembolic events is justifiable only if conventional endovascular or surgical treatment options are not applicable. Perioperative thromboembolic events should be prepared for and treated without unnecessary delays because they frequently respond to adjunctive medical therapy.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1227\/neu.0b013e31823387d4","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,10,4]],"date-time":"2011-10-04T18:06:28Z","timestamp":1317751588000},"page":"617-624","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":50,"title":["The Silk Flow-Diverting Stent in the Endovascular Treatment of Complex Intracranial Aneurysms: Technical Aspects and Midterm Results in 24 Consecutive Patients"],"prefix":"10.1227","volume":"70","author":[{"given":"Olli I.","family":"T\u00e4htinen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Diagnostic Radiology, Tampere University Hospital, Tampere, Finland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hannu I.","family":"Manninen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Radiology, Kuopio University Hospital and Kuopio University, Kuopio, Finland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ritva L.","family":"Vanninen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Radiology, Kuopio University Hospital and Kuopio University, Kuopio, Finland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Janne","family":"Sepp\u00e4nen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Diagnostic Radiology, Tampere University Hospital, Tampere, Finland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tero","family":"Niskakangas","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Tampere University Hospital, Tampere, Finland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jaakko","family":"Rinne","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Kuopio University Hospital and Kuopio University, Kuopio, Finland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Leo","family":"Keski-Nisula","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Diagnostic Radiology, Tampere University Hospital, Tampere, Finland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"276","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,8,20]]},"reference":[{"issue":"9488","key":"2020022604304995700_b1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"809","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(05)67214-5","article-title":"International subarachnoid aneurysm trial (ISAT) of neurosurgical clipping versus endovascular coiling in 2143 patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysms: a randomised comparison of effects on survival, dependency, seizures, rebleeding, subgroups, and aneurysm occlusion","volume":"366","author":"Molyneux","year":"2005","journal-title":"Lancet."},{"issue":"1","key":"2020022604304995700_b2","first-page":"30","article-title":"Reconstruction technic in the treatment of wide-neck intracranial aneurysms.
