Superficial Temporal Artery to Superior Cerebellar Artery STA (E-S*) s2 Bypass for Dolichoectatic Superior Cerebellar Artery Aneurysm After Failed Flow Diversion: 2-Dimensional Operative Video

Abstract
Flow diversion is a unique interventional tool with evolving roles in the treatment of intracranial aneurysms.1 Although flow diversion strategies can be highly effective in appropriately selected patients, their off-label use is controversial. As flow diversion indications have expanded, so has the incidence of treatment failure, resulting in an evolving subgroup of patients with atypical lesions that require complex salvage strategies, such as cerebrovascular bypass.2,3 We report a residual dolichoectatic superior cerebellar artery aneurysm in which flow diversion failed, which was treated through superficial temporal artery to superior cerebellar artery bypass.4,5 Being a single case report, institutional review board approval was not needed. Patient consent was obtained. Used with permission from Barrow Neurological Institute, Phoenix, Arizona.
