Intracranial aneurysms (IA) is not-uncommon pathology of cerebral vessels. Vessel wall magnetic resonance imaging can visualize the vascular walls of IAs. In some aneurysms, the wall-adjacent and a luminal hyperintense signal was detected. The signal was attributed to the inflammation and specific hemodynamic features of aneurysms. But, up to now,...

There are no drugs that prevent the growth of cerebral aneurysms or recanalization of aneurysm coil embolization. We have focused on the role of hemodynamics in cerebral aneurysm development and have shown that inhibition of P2X4 purinoceptor, required by vascular endothelial cells to sense blood flow, reduces the induction and growth of aneurysms...
Flow diverter stents (FDS) are increasingly used for the treatment of complex intracranial aneurysms such as fusiform, giant, or wide-neck aneurysms. The primary goal of these devices is to reconstruct the diseased vascular segment by diverting blood flow from the aneurysm. The resulting intra-aneurysmal flow reduction promotes progressive aneurysm...
In this preliminary study, the underlying pathophysiology mechanisms of cerebral aneurysms (CAs) in monozygotic twins (MTs) were investigated via a rare pair of MTs (twin A and twin B) involving four reconstructed arterial models using preclinical information. First, dimensions and configurated outlines of three-perspective geometries were compared...
Flow diverter (FD) devices are new-generation stents placed in the parent artery at the aneurysmal neck to obstruct intra-aneurysmal blood flow, thus favoring intra-aneurysmal thrombosis. In Japan, about eight years have passed since health insurance approval was granted for FD devices, and FD placement to treat aneurysms has become widespread. Tre...
Background:
Hemodynamics and their clinical outcome of cerebral aneurysms treated with flow diverter (FD) stents have thus far been investigated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. Although human blood is characterized as a non-Newtonian patientspecific fluid, non-patient-specific blood properties (PSBP) were applied in most exta...
