چکیده

A new retrieval device for use in small vessels was evaluated in a canine model. Retrieval was attempted on 25 coils, three silicone balloons, and five catheter and guide wire fragments placed in the renal, pulmonary, hepatic, brachiocephalic, subclavian, carotid, and maxillary arteries. This was successful in 91% (30/33). The snare could also be selectively placed in the vertebral and proximal basilar arteries.

Use of self-expanding stents in distal small cerebral vessels.

BACKGROUND Previously, endovascular treatment of wide-necked aneurysms and stenosis involving small vessels measuring <2 mm in diameter was limited. There are no reports in the literature addressing stent placement in small distal cerebral vessels. Recent experience with the Neuroform stent has shown that this device can be safely and effectively used to treat aneurysms in vessels of this calib...

Angioplasty as an adjuvant therapy for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke.

BACKGROUND Different endovascular techniques can be employed to achieve vessel recanalization in acute stroke. We assessed whether an endovascular strategy that included angioplasty was safe and effectively recanalized acutely occluded intracranial vessels. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 70 patients that received intra-arterial therapy for acute stroke. Patients were divided into two gro...

Endovascular treatment of middle cerebral artery aneurysms with flow modification with the use of the pipeline embolization device.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The Pipeline Embolization Device was reported to be safe and effective in the treatment of sidewall aneurysms, preserving the patency of the vessels covered by the construct. However, to date, the safety and efficacy of this device in treating bifurcation aneurysms remains unknown. We report our preliminary experience with the use of the Pipeline Embolization Device in th...

Simulation of endovascular neurointervention using silicone models: imaging and manipulation.

Silicone models of cerebral aneurysm and stroke pathology were produced by copying the images of clinical cases to evaluate the simulation of endovascular procedures. Conventional silicone models, silicone suture models made from separate aneurysm sac and parent artery sutured together, and animal vascular models made from vessels obtained from pigs were made. The models were incorporated in th...
