Management of ruptured blister aneurysm with pipeline device after Prasugrel loading.

CONCLUSION: Prasugrel loading timed two hours prior to stent delivery did not increase thrombo-embolic or hemorrhagic complications. Single stent that is well apposed against the wall appears to be an effective treatment strategy to treat BLA. Advances in knowledge: Early treatment of acutely ruptured BLA with a single pipeline device deployed at two hours after Prasugrel loading appears to be safe.
