Early Complications After Flow Diverter Versus Stent-Assisted Coiling for Unruptured Wide-Neck Intracranial Bifurcation Aneurysms

This prospective real-world cohort study aims to compare early postoperative complications between flow diverter treatment and stent-assisted coiling in patients with unruptured wide-neck intracranial bifurcation aneurysms. A total of 274 patients from three centers in China will be enrolled and assigned to the flow diverter group or the stent-assisted coiling group according to the treatment received in routine clinical practice. The primary outcome is a composite of any stroke or all-cause death within 30 days after the procedure. The study will also collect demographic, clinical, laboratory, imaging, aneurysm morphological, procedural, and follow-up data to evaluate the safety of these two endovascular treatment strategies in a real-world setting.
