Phase:

NA

Brief Summary

To determine the safety and effectiveness of Pipeline Embolization Device for the treatment of uncoilable or failed wide-necked intracranial aneurysms (IA).

Detailed Description

Patients with large or giant aneurysms of the internal carotid artery treated with PED. Angiographic follow-up occurs at 3 and 5 years.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Age 21 to 75 years, inclusive
  • Patient has a single target IA in the anterior or posterior circulation that:
  • a) Is located in the following regions of the internal carotid artery: i. Paraophthalmic (including paraclinoid, ophthalmic and hypophyseal segments) ii. Cavernous iii. Petrous
  • b) Has a neck \>4 mm or no discernible neck AND a size (maximum fundus diameter) \>10 mm
  • c) Has a parent vessel with diameter 2.5 - 5.0 mm distal/proximal to the target IA
  • Subject has provided written informed consent using the Institutional Review Board (IRB)-approved consent form
  • Subject has the necessary mental capacity to participate and is willing and able to comply with protocol requirements

Exclusion

  • More than one IA requires treatment in the next 6 months
  • Subarachnoid hemorrhage from target IA in the past 60 days
  • Unstable neurologic deficit (i.e., any worsening of clinical condition in the last 30 days)
  • Irreversible bleeding disorder
  • Platelet count \< 100 x 103 cells/mm3 or known platelet dysfunction
  • Inability to tolerate, documented evidence of adverse reaction or contraindication to study medications
  • Stent in place at the target IA
  • Contraindication to CT scan or MRI
  • Allergy to contrast used in angiography that cannot be medically controlled
  • Known severe allergy to platinum or cobalt/chromium alloys
  • Relative contraindication to angiography (e.g., serum creatinine \> 2.5 mg/dL)
  • Woman of child-bearing potential who cannot provide a negative pregnancy test
  • Evidence of active infection at the time of treatment
  • Other conditions of the heart, blood, brain or intracranial vessels that carry a high risk of neurologic events (e.g., severe heart failure, atrial fibrillation, known carotid stenosis)
  • Any comorbid disease or condition expected to compromise survival or ability to complete follow-up assessments to 180 days
  • Extracranial stenosis greater than 50% in the carotid artery for anterior circulation aneurysms
  • Intracranial stenosis greater than 50% in the treated vessel
