Ruptured Bilobed Basilar Artery Fenestration Aneurysm Treated with a WEB Device

Abstract

Objective: To describe the technique of using a Woven Endo Bridge (WEB) device to treat a ruptured bilobed blister-like aneurysm (BLA) at the basilar artery (BA) fenestration.

Case Presentation: A previously healthy 66-year-old female presented at the emergency room with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), centered around the brainstem. Unenhanced CT and CT angiography showed a BLA of a basilar fenestration limb. The angiogram confirmed the diagnosis. A WEB device was chosen to treat this rare and challenging aneurysm.

Conclusion: In this article, we describe the successful endovascular treatment of a SAH patient with a ruptured BLA at the basilar artery fenestration using a WEB device. And an overview of treatment options is provided.
