Abstract
Objective: Flow diversion is increasingly used as an endovascular treatment for intracranial aneurysms. FRED-EPI is a prospective, multicenter, French study, conducted to analyze the safety and efficacy of aneurysm treatment with FRED/FRED Jr (Microvention, AlisoViejo, CA, USA) in current clinical practice.
Patients and methods: Patients with intracranial aneurysms treated with FRED and FRED Jr who agreed to participate were prospectively and consecutively included in all French centers using these devices.
Results: From June 2020 to January 2022, 135 patients (110 females, 81.5%, and 25 males, 18.5%) with 154 aneurysms were included in 13 French interventional neuroradiology centers. The mean age was 53.9 ± 12.2 years (range: 20 - 77 years). Aneurysm was unruptured in 123 cases (79.9%), ruptured in 4 cases (2.6%), and recanalized in 27 cases (17.5%). Most aneurysms were small (135/154, 87.7%). Aneurysm locations were supraclinoid ICA in 83 (53.9%), cavernous and petrous ICA in 25 (16.2%), anterior cerebral artery or anterior communicating artery in 19 (12.3%), MCA in 7 (4.5%), and posterior circulation in 20 (13.0%). Three patients (2.2%) had hemorrhagic complications (1 delayed aneurysm rupture and 2 delayed remote hematoma) and 3 (2.2%) ischemic complications (2 intrastent thrombosis and 1 stroke related to atherosclerosis) leading to 1-year morbimortality of 4.4%. Complete aneurysm occlusion was reported in 105/139 aneurysms (75.5%).
Conclusions: FRED-EPI confirms good safety of aneurysm treatment with FRED/FRED Jr in current clinical practice with 4.4% 1-year morbimortality.
