Stenting Both before and after Coiling of a Ruptured Fusiform Basilar Aneurysm to Overcome Mechanical Occlusion Caused by Thrombosis within the Coil Mass

Abstract

<jats:p> Tortuous vessel anatomy reconstructed by stent-assisted coiling may be kinked by thrombus expansion within the coil mass. This can be overcome by placement of a second stent. </jats:p>
