Summary
-
A
22-year-old
woman
had
an
aneurysmal
SAH
due
to
a
ruptured
anterior
communicating
artery
aneurysm
and
was
treated
successfully
with
endovascular
coiling.
The
patient
subsequently
developed
severe
clinical
and
angiographically
distal
vasospasm.
After
failure
of
both
medical
treatment
and
proximal
balloon
angioplasty,
the
NeuroFlo™ device
was
tried
and
the
patient
showed
substantial
clinical
recovery.
We
demonstrated
an
excellent
outcome
using
a
novel
treatment
for
distal
cerebral
vasospasm
with
the
NeuroFlo™ device.
