Fig. 1. Images from the case of a 50-year-old woman (patient 7) who had a fusiform aneurysm of the distal intracranial left vertebral artery.

A, Anteroposterior projection angiogram of the left vertebral artery disclosed a fusiform aneurysm of the distal intracranial portion (arrow) that is proximal to the vertebrobasilar junction and distal to the left posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA, double arrows).

B, Unsubtracted image demonstrates the deployed stent (arrows) across the aneurysm.

C, Anteroposterior projection angiogram obtained immediately after stent placement demonstrates no change in the fusiform aneurysm.

D, Angiogram obtained 19 months after stent deployment reveals no occlusion of the aneurysm.
