Compares treatment options for Unruptured Intracranial Wide-neck Bifurcation Aneurysms
Official title Flow Diverter Versus Conventional Endovascular Treatment for Unruptured Wide-Neck Bifurcation Aneurysms (FD-BWA Trial)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07707076
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to compare whether the traditional approach (stent-assisted coiling) is associated with a lower complication rate than flow diverter (Pipeline™) treatment for unruptured intracranial wide-neck bifurcation aneurysms. It will also evaluate the long-term imaging outcomes and safety of both treatments.
