title: Coincidental Occurrence of Acute In-stent Thrombosis and Iatrogenic Vessel Perforation During a Wingspan Stent Placement: Management with a Stent In-stent Technique.
abstract: We presented a case that an acute in-stent thrombosis after the deployment of a Wingspan stent was successfully managed with a stent in-stent technique. Because vessel perforation and subarachnoid hemorrhage were iatrogenically developed during the procedure, we were unable to use the thrombolytic agents to correct the in-stent thrombosis. When a thrombotic complication following an intracranial stent placement occurs with a coincidentally hemorrhagic complication, the stent in-stent technique should be considered as a treatment option.
