Background Endovascular embolization is an accepted treatment modality for brain arteriovenous malformations (bAVM); however, treatment outcomes are highly variable, warranting accurate prediction for ...
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 Intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) represents a major cause of ischemic stroke, with endovascular treatments, such as stenting, facing challenges such as restenosis and ...
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 Intracranial aneurysm embolization is traditionally performed in a hospital setting, but there is growing interest in transforming these procedures to outpatient facilities, while ensuring ...
Background Flow-diverting stents (FDS) have revolutionized the treatment of large, giant, and wide-neck intracranial aneurysms. FDS promote thrombosis and aneurysm occlusion by redirecting blood flow ...
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 ...
Background Novel thrombectomy strategies emanate expeditiously day-by-day counting on access system, clot retriever device, proximity to and integration with the thrombus, and microcatheter ...
Background Cerebral vasospasm (CV) after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is linked to worse neurological outcomes. The NeVa VS is a novel cerebral dilation device based on predicate stent ...
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 ...
Outcome prediction for treatment of brain arteriovenous malformations: performance of endovascular predictive scores in a single-center population ...
