Summary
Giant serpentine aneurysms (GSAs) are large, partially thrombosed vascular malformations. Our study suggests dynamic blood flow changes, potentially involving the Coanda effect, may contribute to GSA formation and evolution.
Area of Science:
- Vascular Surgery
- Radiology
- Pathology
Background:
- Giant serpentine aneurysms (GSAs) are characterized by large size, partial thrombosis, and tortuous vascular channels.
- Previous studies primarily reported organized thrombus within GSAs.
