TLDR
PED offers a reasonably safe and effective treatment of large or giant intracranial internal carotid artery aneurysms, demonstrated by high rates of completeAneurysm occlusion and low rates of adverse neurologic events; even in aneurYSms failing previous alternative treatments.
Abstract
The Pipeline for Uncoilable or Failed Aneurysms study demonstrated a high rate (78 of 108, 73.6%) of complete occlusion of large and giant wide-necked aneurysms of the internal carotid artery and a reasonably low rate of major safety events (6 of 107, 5.6% rate of major stroke or neurologic death).

Guidelines for the Management of Patients With Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms A Guideline for Healthcare Professionals From the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association

TL;DR: This updated statement provides comprehensive and evidence-based recommendations for management of patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms and addresses presentation, natural history, epidemiology, risk factors, screening, diagnosis, imaging and outcomes from surgical and endovascular treatment.

TL;DR: The randomized International Subarachnoid Aneurysm Trial (ISAT) study has clearly demonstrated the superiority of endovascular treatment (EVT) of ruptured aneurysms using coil technology over surgery.

Comparison of Flow Diversion and Coiling in Large Unruptured Intracranial Saccular Aneurysms

TL;DR: The PED provides higher aneurysm occlusion rates than coiling, with no additional morbidity and similar clinical outcomes, suggesting that the PED might be a preferred treatment option for large unruptured saccular aneurYSms.

Unruptured intracranial aneurysms: natural history, clinical outcome, and risks of surgical and endovascular treatment

TL;DR: Patients' age was a strong predictor of surgical outcome, and the size and location of an aneurysm predict both surgical and endovascular outcomes.

International subarachnoid aneurysm trial (ISAT) of neurosurgical clipping versus endovascular coiling in 2143 patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysms: a randomised comparison of effects on survival, dependency, seizures, rebleeding, subgroups, and aneurysm occlusion

TL;DR: In patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysms suitable for both treatments, endovascular coiling is more likely to result in independent survival at 1 year than neurosurgical clipping; the survival benefit continues for at least 7 years.

Long-Term Angiographic Recurrences After Selective Endovascular Treatment of Aneurysms With Detachable Coils

TL;DR: Variables determined to be significant predictors of a recurrence included aneurysm size ≥10 mm, treatment during the acute phase of rupture, incomplete initial occlusions, and duration of follow-up, and long-term monitoring of patients treated by endosaccular coiling is mandatory.

International Subarachnoid Aneurysm Trial (ISAT) of neurosurgical clipping versus endovascular coiling in 2143 patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysms: a randomized trial.

TL;DR: In patients with a ruptured intracranial aneurysm, for which endovascular coiling and neurosurgical clipping are therapeutic options, the outcome in terms of survival free of disability at 1 year is significantly better with endov vascular coiling.

Curative endovascular reconstruction of cerebral aneurysms with the pipeline embolization device: the Buenos Aires experience.

TL;DR: The Pipeline Embolization Device (PED) as mentioned in this paper is a microcatheter-delivered endovascular construct designed to achieve the curative reconstruction of the parent arteries giving rise to wide-necked and fusiform intracranial aneurysms.
