Percutaneous Vertebral Artery Access for Embolization of Cerebrovascular Disease: Illustrative Case and Operative Technique
نویسندگان
چکیده
Intracranial arteriovenous malformations can be further complicated by the development of aneurysms, which themselves carry the risk of rupture and hemorrhage. New endovascular techniques allow for more treatment options for these lesions in the setting of arteriovenous malformations. Here we present the case of a patient who developed an aneurysm in the setting of an arteriovenous malformation and subsequently underwent successful endovascular treatment via percutaneous access of the vertebral artery along with reviewing the literature on further treatment options and developments.

Percutaneous vertebroplasty is a promising therapeutic technique for pain control in patients with pathologic fractures of vertebral bodies. Percutaneous vertebroplasty is an appropriate treatment for vertebral pathologic fractures, which is resistant to other usual treatment. It is a useful and only choice in special cases, because of less tissue damage and there is no risk of open surgery and...

Sundt et al. [1) first described angioplasty of a stenotic basilar artery via an operative approach to the vertebral artery. Since its introduction by Higashida et al. [2 , 3] for treatment of intractable vasospasm following subarachnoid hemorrhage, the technique of percutaneous intracranial transluminal angioplasty has been applied by others [4] for that indication. However, there has been a r...

Coronary artery fistula is an uncommon congenital disease that requires invasive treatment for symptomatic patients. Although percutaneous intervention has become the popular treatment option, surgical treatment is preferred for severely tortuous coronary artery fistulas. We report a case of an extremely tortuous coronary artery fistula successfully treated with the support of the GuideLiner ca...
متن کاملDiagnostic reliability of the percutaneous ultrasonic Doppler technique for vertebral arterial occlusive diseases.
There is little data on the diagnostic reliability of the ultrasonic Doppler technique for vertebral arterial occlusive lesions. Percutaneous vertebral Doppler examination and the vertebral angiograms were compared to determine the diagnostic reliability of this technique in 64 vertebral arteries of 53 patients with cerebrovascular disease. The percutaneous vertebral Doppler findings were quant...
متن کاملPercutaneous obliteration of a postoperatively persistent vertebral arteriovenous fistula.
Traumatic vertebral arteriovenous fistulae (AVFs) are relatively uncommon lesions that often follow penetrating wounds of the neck or iatrogenic arterial trauma [1-7]. Such posttraumatic single-hole fistulae differ from congenital arteriovenous malformations, which are composed of multiple communications between the cervical arteries and an abnormal vascular nidus [8] . True single-hole vertebr...
