E-006 Familial Incidence of the Congenital Torcular Dural Arteriovenous Shunt
Purpose There are several hereditary disorders that are well known to be associated with arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) involving the central nervous system including Sturge-Weber, Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber, and Parkes-Weber syndromes as well as hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia and hereditary neurocutaneous angiomatosis. Furthermore, familial incidence of AVMs in the absence of congenital hereditary disorders also has been reported. Herein, we describe the occurrence of the giant torcular herophili (TH) dural arteriovenous fistula (AVF) in two pediatric cousins treated with endovascular embolization. Case report C...

O10 The necessity of monitoring platelet response and adjusting antiplatelet agents for endovascular treatment of unruptured intracranial aneurysms: a single-center, retrospective, cohort study
ConclusionActive monitoring and adjustment antiplatelet agents did not reduce ischemic complications in endovascular treatment; however, tended to reduce the ischemic complication, especially in flow diversion. Low-dose prasugrel may be feasible without increasing hemorrhage in the endovascular treatment of unruptured intracranial aneurysms.ReferencesLi W. Effect of Adjusted Antiplatelet Therapy on Preventing Ischemic Events after Stenting for Intracranial Aneurysms. Stroke. 2021 Dec;52(12):3815–3825. DOI: 10.1161/StrokeAHA.120.032989.

Extensive Proximal Migration of Posterior Communicating Artery Aneurysm Coil Presenting with a Transient Ischemic Attack (P5.127)
CONCLUSIONS: Stretched coils and retrained fragments are a rare complication of coil embolization. If retained fragments are present, patients should be maintained on lifelong antiplatelet agents, as embolic events can occur even years after the initial coiling, as illustrated by this case.Disclosure: Dr. Itrat has nothing to disclose.

Early results of the Axium MicroFX for Endovascular Repair of IntraCranial Aneurysm (AMERICA) study: a multicenter prospective observational registry
Conclusions This prospective study of Axium MicroFX coils demonstrates excellent aneurysm occlusion rates. 52% of aneurysms were completely occluded post-procedure. Within the ruptured aneurysm group, post-procedure occlusion rates were 63.6%. Major AE rates were consistent with historical data.

P-011 Early experience with TransForm™ Occlusion Balloon Catheter (OBC): A Single-Center Study
Conclusions In our single-center study, balloon remodeled coil embolization of aneurysm using TOBC was not associated with any serious complications. The balloon was trackable to intended site and the preparation time was relatively short. We believe that TOBC has good utility in treating broad-necked aneurysms and small aneurysms that are otherwise suboptimally managed by conventional deployment. Disclosures S. Quadri: None. V.

E-064 Safety and Efficacy of Balloon-Assisted Coiling of Intracranial Aneurysms: A Single-Center Study
Conclusions In our single-center study, balloon-assisted coiling was not associated with serious complications. Minimal intra-operative thrombi which were formed resolved with almost no adverse events in patient. Further studies will need to be performed on long term outcomes of these patients, however, balloon-assisted coiling has emerged as an important adjunct in the endovascular treatment of aneurysms.

Endovascular treatment of unruptured wide-necked intracranial aneurysms: comparison of dual microcatheter technique and stent-assisted coil embolization
Conclusions DMT and SAC are effective endovascular approaches for unruptured, wide-necked aneurysms; however, DMT may result in less morbidity. Further long-term studies are necessary to determine the optimal indications for these treatment options.

E-067 Endovascular Approach in the Repair of the Middle Cerebral Artery Aneurysm Including Those with Wide Neck and Complex in Morphology-A Case Series
ConclusionsEndovascular repair of the MCA aneurysm inclosing those with wide neck and complex are not only safe and feasible, but associated with high long-term functional outcome. Therefore, endovascular options must be offered to patients prior to surgical clipping of a MCA aneurysm. Further study may be warranted.DisclosuresY. Lodi: None. V. Reddy: None.

Partial thrombosis of an anterior communicating artery aneurysm prior to endovascular coiling, with intra-procedural distal thrombus embolization.
We describe a case of partial thrombosis of a 7 mm anterior communicating artery aneurysm, which embolized to the right callosomarginal artery in the brief time interval between two sequential diagnostic angiograms performed as part of elective endovascular coiling, and before any instrumentation had been advanced into the intracranial circulation. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of aneurysmal thrombus embolization observed angiographically in near real time. PMID: 28944708 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Unruptured aneurysms in the elderly: perioperative outcomes and cost analysis of endovascular coiling and surgical clipping.
CONCLUSIONS Intervention with CAC and CACo in the elderly is resource intensive and is associated with higher risk than in the nonelderly. Those deciding between intervention and conservative management should consider these risks and costs, especially the 2.2% postoperative mortality rate associated with CAC in the elderly population. Further comparative cost-effectiveness research is needed to weigh these costs and outcomes against those of conservative management. PMID: 29712518 [PubMed - in process]

Neurosurgery in times of a pandemic: a survey of neurosurgical services during the COVID-19 outbreak in the Veneto region in Italy.
CONCLUSIONS: This multicenter study describes the effects of a COVID-19 outbreak on neurosurgical activities in a vast region in Italy. Remodulation of neurosurgical activities has resulted in a significant reduction of elective and emergency surgeries compared to previous years. Most likely this is a combined result of cancellation of elective and postponable surgeries, increase of conservative management, increase in social restrictions, and in patients' fear of accessing hospitals. Curiously, only endovascular procedures for AIS have increased, possibly due to reduced physical activity or increased thrombosis in SARS-Co...

P-019 Comparative effectiveness of stent-assisted coiling and woven endobridge (WEB) embolization for the treatment of unruptured wide-neck bifurcation intracranial aneurysms

E-187 Pipeline embolization stent for treatment of giant supraclinoid aneurysms: a case series
ConclusionThe Pipeline embolization device is a novel technique that can be utilized for treatment of giant cerebrovascular aneurysms with emerging evidence of immediate and long-term success. Further patient enrollment and clinical trials will be required to assess its efficacy in comparison to other endovascular and surgical approaches for the treatment of giant aneurysms.Disclosures M.

Antiplatelet therapy for standalone coiling of ruptured intracranial aneurysms: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Conclusions Although this study showed no beneficial effect of AT on clinical outcomes, the results suggest that AT could be combined with standalone coiling to avoid thromboembolism during the perioperative period. A large prospective study and/or an additional meta-analysis would be required to further investigate how AT benefits standalone coil embolization in aSAH.
