Background Preoperative embolization has been used for intracranial meningiomas for nearly 40 years with varying preferences for embolic materials and limited comparative data on their efficacy.

Background The impact of stent retriever size on mechanical thrombectomy (MT) outcomes remains uncertain. We aim to clarify the influence of stent retriever size on MT outcomes by analyzing data from ...

Background Endovascular embolization is an accepted treatment modality for brain arteriovenous malformations (bAVM); however, treatment outcomes are highly variable, warranting accurate prediction for ...

Purpose To report percutaneous transcranial puncture, embolization and occlusion of a very symptomatic hypoglossal canal/anterior condylar vein dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) using syngo iGuide ...

Background Better reperfusion status results in smaller infarct volumes and better outcomes after thrombectomy. However, if large tissue volumes are already infarcted at baseline, reperfusion might ...
