Combined Pipeline Embolization and Coiling of an Intracranial Aneurysm in Marfan Syndrome: A Case Report and Literature Review
This is the first case of combined PED and coiling for an intracranial aneurysm in Marfan syndrome. This dual approach may offer safer and more effective treatment than traditional methods. In addition, the formation of de novo aneurysms underscores the importance of long-term angiographic follow-up in patients with <i>FBN1</i> mutations to monitor for evolving vascular pathology. These findings warrant further investigation into identifying a genetic link between <i>FBN1</i> mutations and cerebrovascular pathology.
