Abstract

Flow diversion emerged as a crucial treatment option for intracranial aneurysms. We report a multicenter retrospective analysis of the safety and efficacy in the treatment of intracranial aneurysms with the Flow-Redirection Endoluminal Device (FRED) flow diverter, a dual-layer flow-modulation device. All intracranial aneurysms treated with the FRED between March 2013 and February 2016 at 4 neurovascular centers were included. Angiographic and clinical results were retrospectively analyzed, including all follow-up examinations. Aneurysms were unruptured in 44 cases, whereas 8 treatments were due to an acute SAH from the target aneurysm. Successful implantation of the FRED was possible in 96.2% (50/52) of cases. At 3-month follow-up, complete occlusion was determined in 58.1% (25/43) and near-complete in 25.6% (11/43). At 12-month follow-up, aneurysm occlusion was complete in 75.0% (27/36) and near-complete in 22.2% (8/36). The overall acute and late thromboembolic and hemorrhagic complication rate was 17.3% (9/52), with a permanent treatment-related morbidity and mortality of 4.0% (2/50) and 2.0% (1/50), respectively, to date. The FRED device offers an effective tool in the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. The dual-layer design promotes contemporary and stable long-term occlusion rates. Sufficient device expansion should be documented by angiographic CT. Further studies might help to identify a more optimal antiplatelet regimen to avoid thromboembolic complications during the follow-up period.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 02 February 2017.
All research outputs
#14,425,236
of 24,226,848 outputs
Outputs from American Journal of Neuroradiology
#3,033
of 5,087 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#168,596
of 316,263 outputs
Outputs of similar age from American Journal of Neuroradiology
#54
of 78 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,226,848 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,087 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.4. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 316,263 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 45th percentile – i.e., 45% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 78 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 29th percentile – i.e., 29% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
