Summary
Treating wide-neck bifurcation aneurysms is complex. Hybrid Y stenting with the waffle-cone technique, using two closed cell stents, offers a safe and effective bailout option for these challenging cases.
Area of Science:
- Endovascular neurosurgery
- Cerebrovascular disease management
- Interventional neuroradiology
Background:
- Wide-neck bifurcation aneurysms present significant endovascular treatment challenges.
- Standard techniques often require adjunctive devices and complex approaches.
- Existing literature on combined Y-stenting and waffle-cone techniques is limited.
