Case Report
A 48-year-old woman with a history of subarachnoid hemorrhage from a basilar apex aneurysm, which was subsequently clipped, had an unruptured wide-necked bilobed aneurysm within a fenestrated proximal basilar artery (Figure 1). During surveillance imaging with computerized tomography angiography, the aneurysm was found to increase in size during a period of 4 years.
Preoperatively, the patient was placed on aspirin and Plavix. Primary coiling of the fenestration aneurysm was attempted but was

Treatment of intracranial bifurcation aneurysms with “X” stent-assisted coiling: A case series and literature review
2023, Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular DiseasesCitation Excerpt :However, it is still used in highly selected cases, and its long-term effectiveness is yet to be considered. The use of X-stenting has been much less reported and is mainly applied in the following two scenarios: AComA aneurysm11,12 and fVBA combined with a broad-based aneurysm,13 in which the aneurysm has two inflow tracks and two outflow tracks with an H-shaped vascular structure (Fig. 1). For fusiform aneurysms with H-shaped vascular structures, both Y- (Fig. 1A) and T-stenting (Fig. 1B) cannot completely embolize the aneurysm while reconstructing the parent artery.
