Unruptured vertebral arteries dissecting aneurysms have a benign clinical course. The most common symptoms compromise headache, neck pain, dizziness and vomiting. The optimal endovascular treatment option remains controversial. Reconstructive techniques have many advantages over deconstructive ones since the advent of flow diverters such as the Pipeline embolization device (PED). Here, we present a case successfully treated with a PED through a combination of the radial access and advancement of the Marksman catheter into the contralateral vertebral artery due to the special angio-architecture of the patient.
