    Intracranial aneurysms pose a significant rupture risk, leading to morbidity or death, necessitating effective management strategies.

  • 2

    The Contour Neurovascular System (CNS) has shown an 84% adequate occlusion rate in early clinical investigations for treating wide-necked bifurcation aneurysms.

  • 3

    Incomplete occlusion and device deformation have been documented post-treatment, potentially requiring additional interventions.

  • 4

    The study analyzes pre-treatment geometric and hemodynamic factors to predict clinical outcomes and shape modifications of the CNS.

  • 5

    A cohort of 39 aneurysms was evaluated, with outcomes classified as positive or negative based on clinical deterioration during follow-up.
