Endovascular treatment of medullary bridging vein-draining dural arteriovenous fistulas: foramen magnum vs. craniocervical junction lesions
Dural arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) draining to medullary bridging vein (MBV) are located at foramen magnum (FM) and craniocervical junction (CCJ). Such fistulas are rare but pose a challenge to endovascular m...

Delayed Progression to Major Recanalization in Coiled Aneurysms with Minor Recanalization at 36-Month Follow-up
The aim was to monitor aneurysms that show imaging evidence of minor recanalization 36 months after coil embolization and to determine the rate and related risk factors of major recanalization during more prol...

Duration of Vasodilatory Action After Intra-arterial Infusions of Calcium Channel Blockers in Animal Model of Cerebral Vasospasm
In medically refractory vasospasm, invasive intervention may be required. A commonly used approach is intra-arterial (IA) drug infusion. Although calcium channel blockers (CCBs) have been widely applied in thi...

Does Systemic Hypertension Impact Recanalization of Coiled Aneurysms?
It is well known that hypertension is a significant factor in the formation, growth, and rupture of aneurysms and recanalization of coiled aneurysms is affected by hemodynamic stress. At present, however, the ...

Progressive Occlusion of Small Saccular Aneurysms Incompletely Occluded After Stent-Assisted Coil Embolization
Incompletely occluded aneurysms after coil embolization are subject to recanalization but occasionally progress to a totally occluded state. Deployed stents may actually promote thrombosis of coiled aneurysms....
