Management of ruptured aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage with multiple basilar trunk aneurysms using a flow-diverter...

Ruptured aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage associated with multiple basilar trunk aneurysms represents a rare clinical condition. Endovascular intervention stands as the preferred therapeutic approach. We present the case of a 35-year-old patient with subarachnoid hemorrhage and three consecutive basilar trunk aneurysms. Utilizing a flow-diverter stent, we achieved simultaneous occlusion of all 3 aneurysms, performed 2 hours post dual antiplatelet therapy (comprising salicylic acid 300 mg and ticagrelor 180 mg). Sustained resistance to clopidogrel necessitated the subsequent 3 months, followed by single antiplatelet therapy. At the 1-month follow-up, the patient demonstrated a favorable clinical course, devoid of cerebral infarction, and evidenced unobstructed stent patency upon brain magnetic resonance imaging.
