Purpose The pipeline embolization device (PED) necessitates dual antiplatelet therapy (APT)
to decrease thrombotic complications while possibly increasing bleeding risks. The role of …

Object The introduction of the Neuroform microstent has facilitated the embolization of
complex cerebral aneurysms, which were previously not amenable to endovascular therapy. …

A three-dimensional Guglielmi detachable coil (3D-GDC) has been developed that is
designed specifically to bridge the neck of an aneurysm with coil loops, thereby facilitating …

An intracranial aneurysm can be a serious condition that can go undetected until the aneurysm
ruptures, causing hemorrhaging within the subarachnoid space surrounding the brain. …

The ability to sense and adapt to hypoxic conditions plays a pivotal role in neuronal survival.
Hypoxia induces the release of tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA) from cerebral …

This report describes a series of patients for whom dural arteriovenous fistulae (DAVFs) of
the cavernous sinus were successfully embolized using a percutaneous, transorbital …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Thromboembolic events are a common source of
complications during Guglielmi detachable coil (GDC) treatment of intracranial aneurysms. …

BACKGROUND: Intraprocedural rupture is a dangerous complication of endovascular treatment.
Small ruptured anterior communicating artery (ACoA) aneurysms and microaneurysms …

Spines are dendritic protrusions that receive most of the excitatory input in the brain. Early
after the onset of cerebral ischemia dendritic spines in the peri-infarct cortex are replaced by …

Occlusion of an internal carotid artery stent was identified immediately post placement in a
patient who had restenosis after prior angioplasty. An IV dose of abciximab was administered, …
