Use of a Woven Endobridge device (WEB) for the treatment of an aneurysmal diverticulum of the transverse sinus causing pulsatile tinnitus
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Pulsatile tinnitus is a symptom with a potentially significant impact on the quality of life of patients.1 In some cases the pulsatile tinnitus is secondary to an arterial, arteriovenous, or a venous condition that can be treated endovascularly.2-5 One of the newly recognized entities that can cause pulsatile tinnitus is the presence of an ipsilateral aneurysmal diverticulum of the transverse sinus. The Woven EndoBridge (WEB) is an intra-aneurysmal flow disruptor for the treatment of broad-based arterial aneurysms with a high safety and effectiveness profile.3 The initial version of the WEB with a dual-layer structure evolved into a single-layer structure in two different versions (WEB SL, a barrel shape, and WEB SLS, a spherical shape).4 The WEB system does not require concomitant antiplatelet therapy, unlike other intraluminal devices such as flow diverters or intracranial stents. We describe a case of pulsatile tinnitus secondary to an aneurysmal diverticulum of the transverse sinus successfully treated with a WEB SL device instead of stent-assisted coiling, therefore alleviating the need for antiplatelets (video 1). The patient had an immediate clinical response with complete and persisting disappearance of her pulsatile tinnitus. neurintsurg;17/5/559/V1F1V1Video 1.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
