Flow diversion has increasingly become the treatment of choice for fusiform aneurysms in the anterior circulation, but its results in the posterior circulation are variable. We report successful treatment of a giant fusiform upper basilar trunk aneurysm with the Surpass flow diverter in an adolescent, and discuss the potential advantages of this emerging technology in the treatment of fusiform posterior circulation aneurysms.}, issn = {1759-8478}, URL = {https://jnis.bmj.com/content/8/6/e23}, eprint = {https://jnis.bmj.com/content/8/6/e23.full.pdf}, journal = {Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery} }
