======  Intracranial Bifurcation Aneurysm ======


[[Bifurcation aneurysm]]s were defined as lesions originating from major [[bifurcation]]s, including the anterior cerebral artery (ACA), anterior communicating artery (ACoA), posterior communicating artery (PCoA), internal carotid artery (ICA), middle cerebral artery (MCA), and top of the basilar artery (TOBA)



[[Wide-neck intracranial aneurysm]] in the bifurcation remains a challenge for [[endovascular surgeon]]s.

[[Dual stent-assisted coil embolization]] techniques have been defined to treat bifurcation aneurysms with a complex neck morphology. However, there are still concerns about the safety of dual-stenting procedures. Stent plus balloon-assisted coiling is a recently described endovascular technique that enables the coiling of wide-necked complex bifurcation aneurysms by implanting only a single stent.
