متن کاملIntracranial vertebrobasilar stenosis: angioplasty and follow-up.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE When medication fails to improve symptoms of atherosclerotic stenosis of the intracranial vertebral and basilar arteries, percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) is considered. However, because investigators disagree on the usefulness of this procedure, we conducted a retrospective study to evaluate the indications, efficacy, and safety of PTA. METHODS Twenty patien...
متن کاملBilateral Superior Cerebellar Artery Infarction after Stent-Angioplasty for Internal Carotid Artery Stenosis
Spontaneous bilateral cerebellar infarction in the territory of the superior cerebellar arteries is extremely rare. Occasionally there have been reports of bilateral cerebellar infarction due to vertebrobasilar atherosclerotic occlusion or stenosis, whereas no report of bilateral cerebellar infarction due to complicated hemodynamic changes. In this report, we present a patient with bilateral ce...
