It was reported that the patient presented to the hospital for an elective procedure for aneurysm located in the internal carotid artery (ica).
The patient had severely tortuous anatomy.
A stent was used to straight the microcatheter and then the subject flow diverter was deployed successfully.
On the final angiography run, it was noticed that the distal vessel had a slow flow.
A computed tomography (ct) scan was performed but the images were not clear.
Integrilin was administered; however, on the angiography run it was noticed that there was a subarachnoid hemorrhage (sah) in the distal vasculature.
The physician applied a little glue to treat the ruptured vessel.
No other information was provided.
