Video Summary

Dr. Griesenaar discusses the European Multi-Center Study for Evaluation of a Dual-Layer Flow-Diverting Stent for Treatment of Wide-Necked Intracranial Aneurysms, known as EUROFRET. The study, published in AJNR, focuses on the FRET flow-diverting stent. The study was conducted across 15 European centers from 2012 to 2015 and enrolled 531 patients with 579 aneurysms. Results showed that 20% of aneurysms were occluded at three months, increasing to 95% after one year. Morbidity and mortality rates were low, with transient neurologic morbidity at 3.2%, permanent morbidity at 0.8%, and mortality at 1.5%. The study concludes that the FRET stent has favorable occlusion outcomes with acceptable risks.
