Abstract

Blister aneurysms are intracranial arterial lesions originating at nonbranching sites of the dorsal supraclinoid internal carotid artery and basilar artery.[1] Among different treatment options, the use of flow-diverting devices is gaining popularity and has the potential for becoming the standard of care.[2]

Radiological evaluation of flow diverter braid expansion and vessel wall apposition during procedure has become useful in preventing life-threatening complications. Incomplete coverage of an aneurysm neck, kinking, or incomplete expansion and malapposition of a stent carries a significant risk for thromboembolic events.[3] [4]
