Late recurrence of a completely occluded large intracranial aneurysm treated with a Tubridge flow diverter.

We report a rare case of recurrence of a large intracavernous aneurysm after angiography proved complete occlusion. The aneurysm was treated by a combination of a Tubridge flow diverter and coils, and balloon angioplasty, after flow diverter devices deployment for parent vessel stenosis. Six month angiographic follow-up demonstrated complete occlusion. Unfortunately, obvious aneurysm recurrence was confirmed on 2 year angiographic follow-up. The probable mechanism of recurrence was analyzed.
