Zusammenfassung:•PED use is feasible and safe across different patient age groups.•Older patients required longer time period to achieve aneurysm occlusion.•Further studies on age-related factors relating to aneurysm occlusion are needed. The purpose of this study was to evaluate safety and efficacy of the pipeline embolization device (PED) in different patient age groups with unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIA). All patients with UIA treated with the PED between 2011 and 2017 were included. Based on their age, patients were trichotomized to: young (≤45 years), middle-aged (46 to
