Considerable advances in our understanding of the natural history and treatment of cerebrovascular disease were made in 2012. The landmark Unruptured Cerebral Aneurysm Study in Japan was published, illustrating a significantly greater rupture risk than previously reported for small anterior and posterior communicating artery aneurysms, those with daughter domes, and giant aneurysms. Results from the Cerecyte (DePuy Synthes, West Chester, PN, USA) coil trial did not demonstrate a statistically significant positive impact of these bioactive coils on angiographic occlusion rates or outcome. The Clazosentan to Overcome Neurological Ischemia and Infarct Occurring after Subarachnoid Hemorrhage study was also published and unfortunately did not demonstrate an overall favorable long-term functional outcome rate for patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage receiving clazosentan. Studies furthering our understanding of the natural history and treatment of vascular malformations were also published, including large prospective natural history studies of cavernous malformations from the Mayo Clinic and the Scottish Audit of Intracranial Vascular Malformations database. Although pregnancy was found to be a significant risk factor for arteriovenous malformation hemorrhage, several studies did not demonstrate pregnancy as a significant risk factor for cavernous malformation hemorrhage. Finally, prospective randomized control trials illustrated significantly improved angiographic and clinical outcome results for both the Solitaire (ev3 Endovascular, Plymouth, MN, USA; SWIFT trial) and Trevo (Concentric Medical, Mountainview, CA, USA; TREVO 2 trial) stent retrievers as compared to the Merci (Concentric Medical) clot retriever.
