The preliminary results indicate that WEB treatment of proximal PICA aneurysms is feasible with a reasonable safety and efficacy profile. The advantages of intrasaccular flow disruption include preservation of the PICA, durable aneurysm occlusion, and omission of antiplatelet therapy. The low-profile WEB 17 delivery system might enable navigation to distal PICA aneurysms, which needs to be addressed further.
