Description
The treatment of cerebrovascular lesions has undergone remarkable changes, with surgery being replaced by interventional radiological treatment. The greatest innovation can be seen in the treatment of aneurysms combined with the progress management of vasospasm. Additionally, treatment of arteriovenous malformations became more sophisticated, combined with surgery and/or stereotaxic irradiation. Both thrombolytic therapy and angioplasty widened their indications, greatly increasing the number of clinical cases and providing analytic opportunities of the relatively long-term follow-up of angioplasty. This book will provide a better understanding and will further promote this field of new scientific therapy.
