However&#44; there are some lesions thought not to be suitable for endovascular treatment that may be amenable to treatment with unconventional&#44; transcirculation endovascular approaches to the circle of Willis&#46;

The technological constraints provided a window into transcirculation approaches that would not have been necessary in the modern era&#46; However&#44; understanding the feasibility and safety of these approaches is important for the select cases when they might be necessary&#44; even with more modern devices&#46;</p><p id="par0150" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Case 4 required an Enterprise stent to secure the Onyx embolisate&#44; obligating the use of antiplatelet therapy in a patient who presented with subarachnoid hemorrhage&#46; These stents may not be better than flow diversion in the setting of SAH&#46; This combination of embolization tools would not be the most common approach to treating this ruptured dissecting aneurysm in the current era&#46; However&#44; this case is a relevant demonstration of transcirculation approaches for more favorable catheter navigation and stability&#46; Furthermore&#44; dissecting aneurysms remain challenging treatment targets even for flow diversion&#44; which has been observed to be refractory to single flow diverters&#46;</p><p id="par0155" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Cases 4 and 5 describe the treatment of anterior circulation lesions via the posterior circulation due to occlusion or inaccessibility of the ICA&#46; Case 4 was performed in a retrograde fashion&#44; whereas in Case 5 the catheter continued anterograde to perform an MCA thrombectomy&#46; This unconventional technique for treating anterior circulation aneurysms from the posterior circulation via the PCoA can be useful in select patients whose anatomy or pathology prevents access to the anterior circulation via the ICA&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0130"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">8&#44;13&#44;17</span></a></p><p id="par0160" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In Case 2&#44;

Case 1 demonstrates a contralateral anterior circulation approach to devascularizing a tumor before resection via a favorable trajectory into the recurrent artery of Huebner&#46; A bilateral approach can also be useful for treating ICA aneurysms&#44; as demonstrated in Case 3 in which a retrograde snare restored ipsilateral catheter positioning to achieve complete PED embolization that otherwise would have been unsuccessful&#46;</p><p id="par0165" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Our results were not universally successful&#46; In Case 6&#44; we unsuccessfully attempted an anterior-to-posterior approach for the treatment of a cerebellar AVM due to insufficient distal control of the catheter&#44; highlighting that transcirculation approaches may increase the number of turns and tortuosity&#44; which may diminish catheter control&#46; Combined with traversing a stent&#44; the transcirculation approach introduced additional catheter length that reduced the distal catheter control needed to cannulate the posterior circulation aneurysm&#46;</p><p id="par0170" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Understandably&#44; there is apprehension and skepticism for transcirculation endovascular approaches&#46; A key limitation of transcirculation approaches is that they can increase the necessary catheter length and the number of turns needed to access the target lesion&#44; thus diminishing distal control&#46; This can both impair the ability to cannulate the target lesion &#40;e&#46;g&#46; Case 6&#41; and decrease the adequacy and precision with which stents&#44; coils&#44; thrombectomy devices&#44; or other devices can be deployed &#40;e&#46;g&#46; Case 3&#41;&#46; Our imperfect results in these cases may be attributable to the added procedural complexity of transcirculation approaches involving increased catheter lengths&#44; along with the selection bias of only the most challenging lesions being treated with this unconventional approach&#46; Careful selection of patients can help predict which cases may be most affected by poor distal control&#46; Thoughtful discussion about all management options&#44; including endovascular&#44; open surgical&#44; and nonsurgical treatment&#44; should be part of every case&#44; especially when there is concern for limited distal control&#46;</p><p id="par0175" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Interventionists may also be reluctant to disrupt other vascular territories that are not directly involved in the pathology being treated &#40;e&#46;g&#46; Case 5&#41;&#46; However&#44; in many cases this may actually be safer than risky ipsilateral approaches &#40;Case 3 being one such example&#41; or obligating the patient to undergo open surgery&#46; Our case series demonstrates that&#44; while not always entirely successful&#44; attempts to access complex vascular lesions with a transcirculation approach can be both safe and effective in select patients and in the hands of an experienced interventionist&#46; In the hands of various dual-trained providers or multimodality teams&#44; there may be different risk&#8211;benefit profiles that lead to different endovascular or microsurgical treatment strategies&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0180"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">18</span></a></p><p id="par0180" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">This series of cases further establishes the experience of transcirculation approaches and expands upon the tools and treatments described by other groups&#46;

Abstract
Object

The breadth and complexity of neurovascular pathologies treated with endovascular neurosurgery has expanded dramatically in recent years. Many aneurysms remain difficult to treat safely. Transcirculation (contralateral and/or retrograde) approaches through the circle of Willis are useful alternatives for treating challenging lesions endovascularly. Here, we present a series of patients treated with unconventional transcirculation techniques.

Methods

A total of six patients were treated: four patients with five aneurysms, one patient with an MCA stroke, and one patient with a meningioma requiring preoperative embolization were initially thought not to be amenable to endovascular treatment. The decision was made to treat these patients with transcirculation approaches. All patients were treated by one interventionist. One aneurysm was located in the cavernous internal carotid artery (ICA), one in the vertebral artery, two in the paraclinoid ICA, and one in a cerebellar AVM feeder vessel were treated.

Results

Five of six patients (83%) made a full neurologic recovery. Three aneurysms were treated to complete occlusion, one aneurysm was left with small residual neck filling, and one aneurysm was not able to be treated. One patient underwent mechanical thrombectomy of a middle cerebral artery (MCA) embolus and MCA filling was restored after treatment. One patient underwent complete embolization of the deep vascular supply of a meningioma.

Conclusions

Although many neurovascular pathologies remain unsuitable for endovascular treatment, transcirculation approaches can allow for safe, successful treatment of challenging lesions in select patients.

Resumen
Objetivo

La variedad y la complejidad de las enfermedades neurovasculares tratadas con neurocirugía endovascular ha aumentado drásticamente en los últimos años. Muchos aneurismas continúan siendo difíciles de tratar de forma segura. Los enfoques de transcirculación (contralateral y/o retrógrada) a través del círculo de Willis son alternativas útiles para el tratamiento endovascular de lesiones difíciles. Presentamos una serie de casos de pacientes tratados con técnicas de transcirculación no convencionales.

Métodos

Se trató a un total de 6 pacientes que inicialmente se creía que no eran aptos para el tratamiento endovascular: 4 pacientes con 5 aneurismas, un paciente con un ictus de la arteria cerebral media (ACM) y un paciente con un meningioma que requería embolización preoperatoria. Se tomó la decisión de tratar a estos pacientes con métodos de transcirculación. Todos los pacientes fueron tratados por un solo especialista. Se localizaron y trataron un aneurisma en el segmento cavernoso de la arteria carótida interna (ACI), otro en la arteria vertebral, 2 en el segmento paraclinoideo de la ACI y otro en una malformación arteriovenosa cerebelosa de un vaso nutriente.

Resultados

Cinco de los 6 pacientes (83%) alcanzaron una recuperación neurológica completa. Se trataron 3 aneurismas hasta una oclusión completa, un aneurisma se dejó con un pequeño relleno de cuello residual y otro aneurisma no pudo ser tratado. Un paciente fue sometido a una trombectomía mecánica de un émbolo en la ACM y el relleno de la ACM se restauró después del tratamiento. Un paciente se sometió a embolización completa del riego vascular profundo de un meningioma.

Conclusiones

Aunque muchas enfermedades neurovasculares siguen sin ser adecuadas para el tratamiento endovascular, los enfoques de transcirculación pueden permitir el tratamiento seguro y exitoso de lesiones difíciles en pacientes seleccionados.
