Despite a low rate of intraoperative complications, post-procedural thromboembolic events were common in Neuroform stent-treated patients, which might be associated with hyperactive platelets. Further studies are warranted to identify any potential relationship between post-stent hyperactive platelets and thromboembolism.

Our study reveals that the thromboembolic events associated with Neuroform stent may present in a delayed fashion. These events can be successfully treated with good outcome. Therefore, postoperative close follow-up is strongly recommended for all Neuroform stent-treated patients.

The Neuroform stent assisted neck remodelling technique improves progressive obliteration of intracranial aneurysms with a low recanalisation rate and good clinical outcome.
