Endovascular coil embolization is an important method for managing intracranial aneurysms. However, aneurysm coiling may fail or be insufficient in geographically difficult aneurysms. A flow-diverter stent (FDS) is an alternative in these difficult coiling aneurysms. Thus, this study reports the experience and outcome of FDS management of intracranial aneurysms.
