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 aim of this study was to evaluate the preliminary experience of a combined middle meningeal artery embolization (MMAE) and burr hole evacuation approach for chronic subdural hematoma ...

Background Vertebral hemangiomas are incidental and typically, asymptomatic lesions of the spine, present in 10–12% of the population. However, aggressive vertebral hemangiomas (AVHs) can compromise ...

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 ...

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 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 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 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 ...
