Abstract
This chapter is a summary of hemodynamic studies undertaken to elucidate further the mechanisms of growth, thrombosis, and rupture of giant intracranial aneurysms. The role of turbulent flow and intra-aneurysmal pressure is reviewed in the literature and studied with glass models of giant aneurysms.
