Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Endoluminal reconstruction with flow diverting devices represents a novel constructive technique for the treatment of cerebral aneurysms. We present the results of the first prospective multicenter trial of a flow-diverting construct for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients with unruptured aneurysms that were wide-necked (> 4 mm), had unfavorable dome/neck ratios (
