T- configuration stent assisted coiling treatment of a complex wide-necked basilar tip aneurysm

The advancement of intracranial stent technology and techniques has extended the applications of endovascular coiling methods for complex intracranial aneurysms. Coiling of wide-necked and complex bifurcation aneurysms usually requires double stent implantation. Different configurations for double stent-assisted coil embolization have been described. The T-configuration stent-assisted coiling procedure was recently described as a feasible, effective, and relatively safe endovascular technique used to treat wide-necked complex bifurcation aneurysms. In this article, we present the successful management of a complex wide-neck basilar tip aneurysm using a slightly modified T-configuration stent-assisted coiling technique.
