Sumario:The history of cerebral aneurysm treatment has a rich and storied past with multiple notable luminaries contributing insights. The modern era has transitioned from primarily clip ligation to increasing use of endovascular therapy. Even more recently, the use of intrasaccular flow diverters has been introduced for the treatment of wide necked aneurysms. The field is continuing to transform, and bioactive coils and stents have resurfaced as promising adjuvants to promote aneurysm healing. Advanced imaging modalities are being developed that could further advance the endovascular arsenal and allow for porous memory polymer devices to enter the field. This focused review highlights notable historic contributions and advances to the point of futuristic technology that is actively being developed.
