Objective: We report a case of coil embolization using trans-cell technique through mesh of a pipeline embolization device (PED).

Case Presentation: A 55-year-old female developed a left cavernous carotid aneurysm (CCA) with left abducens nerve palsy. The abducens nerve palsy improved gradually after PED deployment for the aneurysm. Sixty-nine days after the procedure, the patient suddenly presented with a severe headache, left abducens nerve palsy, left eyelid edema, and left pulsatile tinnitus. Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) revealed left direct carotid cavernous fistula (dCCF) due to rupture of the aneurysm, and the patient underwent endovascular treatment. A Marathon was guided into the left internal carotid artery, and a guidewire via the Marathon passed through the mesh of the PED. Then the Marathon advanced over the guidewire into the aneurysm through the mesh of the PED, with assistance of a distal access catheter and a balloon catheter. Transarterial intra-aneurysmal coil embolization using trans-cell technique was performed, and the shunt blood flow was diminished. After subsequent transvenous embolization (TVE), the shunt blood flow disappeared, and all neurological symptoms improved. When PED is deployed linearly at a diameter 0.5 mm smaller than the nominal diameter, the average strand spacing is calculated to be approximately 0.2 mm. Since PED is a braided stent, the spacing can be large. It is theoretically reasonable for Marathon with an outer diameter of 0.59 mm to pass through the mesh of the PED.

Conclusion: In some cases, trans-cell technique through mesh of PED can be performed using a small diameter microcatheter.
