Abstract

The Neuroform Atlas® stent is one of the most recently developed stents for coil embolization, with advancements in a lower‑profile delivery system, enhanced trackability, smaller cell size, and increased wall conformability. Because of these advantages, the Neuroform Atlas® stent shows high technical success with few procedure‑related complications. However, the present study reported a rare complication of a stretched and partially fractured Neuroform Atlas® stent due to unexpected partial withdrawal of microcatheter during deployment for coil embolization of an intracranial aneurysm. The measured length of the stent was ~30 mm, which was greater than the normal length (21 mm). An additional stent was inserted into the distal part of the deployed stent to stabilize the damaged stent and remodel the aneurysm neck. This complication was considered to potentially result from the combination of several factors, including: Curved vessel; open‑cell stent; unexpected microcatheter withdrawal during stent deployment; and hooking of the aneurysm selecting microcatheter with stent strut. Understanding the stent design and careful manipulation while avoiding unexpected withdrawal of the microcatheter could prevent this complication.
