What if an occluded flow diverter stent in a fusiform basilar aneurysm didn’t mean there were no options left?
In this case, Serdar Geyik from Istanbul, Turkey, takes the stage at LINNC 2025 to confront one of neuroradiology’s toughest scenarios: when a flow diverter placed in a fusiform basilar aneurysm has clotted off, and standard solutions seem exhausted. Traditional protocols often assume occlusion equals failure, but what if that conclusion is premature?
Dive into how the team dissects surgical and endovascular rescue strategies, marshals recent case evidence, and pushes for daring, creative paths forward to restore flow, secure brainstem safety, and rescue hope.
