Stent-Assisted Coil Embolization of Ruptured Blood Blister-Like Aneurysm of the Basilar Artery: A Case Report and Literature Review

OBJECTIVE: Blood blister-like aneurysms (BBA) often develop on the anterior wall of the internal carotid artery, and few cases have been reported at other sites. We report a case of stent-assisted coil embolization in the acute phase for a ruptured BBA of the basilar artery. CASE PRESENTATION: A 53-...

Sumario:OBJECTIVE: Blood blister-like aneurysms (BBA) often develop on the anterior wall of the internal carotid artery, and few cases have been reported at other sites. We report a case of stent-assisted coil embolization in the acute phase for a ruptured BBA of the basilar artery. CASE PRESENTATION: A 53-year-old woman underwent emergency stent-assisted coil embolization for subarachnoid hemorrhage due to a ruptured BBA in the main trunk of the basilar artery. Seven months after the operation, cerebral angiography confirmed no recurrence and a good clinical course. CONCLUSION: Stent-assisted coil embolization for BBA may be one treatment option.
