Use of Tirofiban to Prevent Ischemic Events in Patients with CYP2C19 Loss-of-Function Alleles during Flow Diversion of Intracranial Aneurysm: A Multicenter Cohort Study

This study supports CYP2C19 genotyping before flow diversion because LOF alleles increase the risk of ischemic events. Prophylactic use of tirofiban may help reduce ischemic events in LOF allele carriers.
