<jats:title>Introduction</jats:title>
<jats:p xml:lang="en">The Surpass Evolve flow diverter (FD) is a 64‐wire cobalt‐chromium device with improved ease of deployment and conformability, compared to its predecessor. Data on procedural outcomes and aneurysm obliteration rate remain limited. The objective of this study was to describe the procedural outcomes, including 6‐month obliteration rates, for patients who underwent Surpass Evolve FD embolization of an unruptured anterior circulation aneurysm.</jats:p>

<jats:title>Methods</jats:title>
<jats:p xml:lang="en">All consecutive patients with an unruptured anterior circulation aneurysm who were treated with the Surpass Evolve FD between Aug 2020 and May 2022 were included. Patients with a ruptured or posterior circulation aneurysm were excluded. Demographic and clinical features, aneurysm morphology, arterial access, and procedural factors and outcome were extracted from our departmental neurointerventional database. Summary statistics included frequencies, and measures of central tendency and dispersion as appropriate.</jats:p>

<jats:title>Results</jats:title>
<jats:p xml:lang="en">Sixty patients (82% female, mean age 57.9 years ± 15.5) underwent elective Surpass Evolve flow diversion for an unruptured anterior circulation aneurysm. In 47 (78%) patients, a native aneurysm was flow‐diverted, and in 13 (22%) patients, FD was performed for a recurrent aneurysm. Distribution of aneurysm location was: supraclinoid ICA (65%), cavernous ICA (12%), cervical ICA (10%) and anterior cerebral artery (13%). Thirty‐nine (65%) patients underwent left‐sided intervention. Mean aneurysm maximal diameter was 8.7 ± 5.7 mm. The majority of patients (49, 82%) underwent radial arterial access. Balloon angioplasty or J‐wire manipulation was used to enhance apposition in 37 (62%) cases. To date, thirty‐five (58%) patients have had a follow up angiogram (mean 0.65 years ± 0.2 from intervention); in 5 patients, there was mild non‐flow‐limiting stenosis. Based on the Raymond‐Roy Occlusion Classification, 25 (71%) had complete occlusion, 1 (2%) had a residual neck, and 9 (26%) had residual aneurysm.</jats:p>

<jats:title>Conclusions</jats:title>
<jats:p xml:lang="en">The Surpass Evolve FD is safe and associated with favorable occlusion rates at six months. In our early experience, complication rates are well within the acceptable limits.</jats:p>
