Direct V3 Vertebral Artery Access for Embolization of Partially Thrombosed Fusiform Basilar Trunk Aneurysm: Technical Case Instruction.
Operative Neurosurgery (Hagerstown, Md.) 2024 April 31
BACKGROUND AND IMPORTANCE: Fusiform vertebrobasilar aneurysms carry significant morbidity. Endovascular strategies are preferred; however, unsafe or unfeasible access can call for innovative strategies.
CLINICAL PRESENTATION: An octogenarian patient with an enlarging fusiform proximal basilar artery aneurysm causing a sixth nerve palsy was found to have multiple anatomic features that precluded a transradial or transfemoral endovascular approach. She was thus treated with direct microsurgical access of the V3 segment of the vertebral artery for subsequent coil embolization and flow diversion.
CONCLUSION: This case introduces a novel combined microsurgical and endovascular strategy for treating a complex partially thrombosed fusiform basilar artery aneurysm. This approach should be reserved only for patients where conventional endovascular access is dangerous or unfeasible.
