Fusiform aneurysms of vertebrobasilar arteries pose great challenge to surgical and endovascular treatment, especially large and giant aneurysms. We retrospectively reviewed our experiences and results of endovascular treatments for a series of 10 consecutive patients with large and giant fusiform aneurysms. Eight patients underwent stents placement (5 patients) or stent-assisted coiling (3 patients), and 2 patients underwent proximal occlusion of the parent arteries. Retreatment was needed in 2 patients. With the exception of 1 patient who died of rebleeding after sole stenting, the remaining 9 patients had good outcome. Reconstructive strategies using stents is a useful alternative for large and giant fusiform aneurysms of the vertebrobasilar arteries.
