The study objective is to present the results of applying stent retriever pRESET as assistance device in embolization of brain aneurysm. Materials and methods. Between January 2017 and May 2018, were threated 10 patients with brain aneurism using temporary stent-assistant method. The average aged was 41. Asymptomatic aneurysmal disease was observed in five patients, two patients were operated on in the acute period of subarachnoid hemorrhage, in two cases temporary stent assistance was used for pre-embolization of previously operated aneurysms. Temporary stent assistance was performed using a stent retriever pRESET (Phenox, Germany). Results . The technical success of the intervention was 100 %. Total embolization of aneurysms was achieved in seven patients, in three patients subtotal embolization was observed. All observations had positive neurological outcomes on discharge. Conclusion . Temporary stent assistance using a stent retriever pRESET is an additional option for endovascular treatment of brain aneurysms. Conflict of interest. The author declares no conflict of interest.
