Surgical or endovascular interventions were required in one of 10 TA patients with SAA occlusive lesions. Arteries reconstructed after surgical bypass had superior patency to those reconstructed by endovascular treatment. However, bypass surgery was more likely than endovascular treatment to be accompanied by serious early postoperative complications.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:Antiplatelet resistance is known to be associated with symptomatic ischemic complication after endovascular coil embolization. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the relationship between antiplatelet resistance and clinically silent thromboembolic complications using DWI in patients who underwent coil embolization for unruptured intracranial aneurysm.
Ethanol sclerotherapy is effective for achieving long-term durable cure of head and neck AVMs. In patients with non-curable disease, it is also effective for symptom palliation and long-term disease control. However, given recurrence after interval disease-controlled period, long-term follow-up should be required to detect recurrence in patients with any residual lesion after treatment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
