NEUROSURGERY. Long-term Tumor Control of Benign Intracranial Meningiomas After Radiosurgery in a Series of 4565 Patients

Santacroce, Antonio MD; Walier, Maja Dipl Math; Régis, Jean MD, PhD; Liščák, Roman MD, PhD; Motti, Enrico MD; Lindquist, Christer MD, PhD; Kemeny, Andras MD; Kitz, Klaus MD; Lippitz, Bodo MD; Álvarez, Roberto Martínez MD, PhD; Pedersen, Paal-Henning MD, PhD; Yomo, Shoji MD; Lupidi, Francesco MD; Dominikus, Karlheinz PhD; Blackburn, Philip MD; Mindermann, Thomas MD; Bundschuh, Otto MD; van Eck, A.T.C.J. MD; Fimmers, Rolf PhD; Horstmann, Gerhard A. MD

BACKGROUND: Radiosurgery is the main alternative to microsurgical resection for benign meningiomas.

NEUROSURGERY. The Modified Bose Method for the Endovascular Treatment of Intracranial Atherosclerotic Arterial Stenoses Using the Enterprise Stent

Vajda, Zsolt MD, PhD; Schmid, Elisabeth MD; Güthe, Thomas MD; Klötzsch, Christoph MD; Lindner, Alfred MD; Niehaus, Ludwig M; Sperber, Wolfgang MD; Peters, Jan MD; Arnold, Guy MD; Bäzner, Hansjörg MD; Henkes, Hans MD

BACKGROUND: Balloon dilatation and deployment of a self-expanding stent is a safe treatment for intracranial atherosclerotic stenoses. The significant recurrence rate might be related to the high radial force of the Wingspan stent.

NEUROSURGERY. Repeat Radiosurgery for Intracranial Arteriovenous Malformations

Stahl, John M. BA; Chi, Yueh-Yun PhD; Friedman, William A. MD

BACKGROUND: Despite a high success rate in the stereotactic radiosurgical treatment of intracranial arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) that cannot be safely resected with microsurgery, some patients must be managed after treatment failure.

NEUROSURGERY. Temporary Endovascular Bypass: Rescue Technique During Mechanical Thrombolysis

Gonzalez, L. Fernando MD; Jabbour, Pascal MD; Tjoumakaris, Stavropoula MD; Teufack, Sonia MD; Gordon, David MD; Dumont, Aaron MD; Rosenwasser, Robert MD

BACKGROUND: The goal of mechanical thrombolysis is to re-establish blood flow to a completely occluded artery in patients who fail intravenous thrombolytic therapy or who are outside the therapeutic window.

NEUROSURGERY. Onyx Embolization of Extradural Spinal Arteriovenous Malformations With Intradural Venous Drainage

Lanzino, Giuseppe MD; D Urso, Pietro Ivo M; Kallmes, David F. MD; Cloft, Harry J. MD, PhD

BACKGROUND: Extradural arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are uncommon vascular malformations of the spine. They are characterized by an arteriovenous communication (localized in the paraspinal soft tissues and the epidural venous plexus) that may have retrograde intradural venous drainage. Surgical treatment of extradural AVMs can be challenging because of the common location ventral to the dural sac and the presence of arterialized venous lakes.

NEUROSURGERY. Comparative Evaluation of Percutaneous Retrogasserian Glycerol Rhizolysis and Radiofrequency Thermocoagulation Techniques in the Management of Trigeminal Neuralgia

Udupi, Bidkar Prasanna MD; Chouhan, Rajendra S. MD; Dash, Hari H. MD; Bithal, Parmod K. MD; Prabhakar, Hemanshu MD

BACKGROUND: Among the percutaneous procedures for the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia, percutaneous anhydrous glycerol rhizolysis (PRGR) and radiofrequency (RF) ablation of trigeminal neuralgia have stood the test of time.

NEUROSURGERY. Merci Retrievers as Access Adjuncts for Reperfusion Catheters: The Grappling Hook Technique

Hui, Ferdinand K. MD; Hussain, Muhammad S. MD; Spiotta, Alejandro MD; Bhalla, Tarun MD, PhD; Toth, Gabor MD; Moskowitz, Shaye I. MD, PhD; Elgabaly, Mohamed MD; Sivapatham, Thinesh MD; Rasmussen, Peter A. MD

BACKGROUND: Expeditious, stable access in acute ischemic stroke is foundational for mechanical revascularization. Proximal vascular tortuosity and unfavorable anatomy may impede the access necessary for revascularization, particularly when large-caliber catheters are used. We describe an approach using the Merci retriever to gain stable catheter access for aspiration.

NEURORADIOLOGY. Endovascular treatment of dural arteriovenous fistula involving marginal sinus with emphasis on the routes of transvenous embolization

Hyun Seok Choi, Dong Ik Kim, Byung Moon Kim, Dong Joon Kim, Sung Soo Ahn

Introduction: Dural arteriovenous fistulas involving marginal sinus are relatively rare. Transvenous embolization is a curative treatment of choice for them. Regional anatomy surrounding the marginal sinus comprises complex craniocervical bony structures and abundant venous interconnections. Therefore, dural arteriovenous fistulas involving marginal sinus may have various routes for a transvenous approach. The purpose of this article was to analyze endovascular treatment of marginal sinus dural arteriovenous fistulas with emphasis on the routes of transvenous embolization.

NEURORADIOLOGY. Vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation: combined transvenous and transarterial method using a “kissing microcatheter technique”

Dan Meila, Raphaela Hannak, Axel Feldkamp, Martin Schlunz-Hendann, Andreas Mangold, Collin Jacobs, Karsten Papke, Friedhelm Brassel

Introduction: Vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation (VGAM) is a severe pediatric neurovascular disease. Children often present with congestive heart failure in the neonatal period. In the last decades, endovascular treatment became the first therapeutic option. The purpose of this study is to report our results in the treatment of VGAM with a combined transvenous and transarterial method in the last ten years.

NEURORADIOLOGY. Complication rates using balloon-expandable and self-expanding stents for the treatment of intracranial atherosclerotic stenoses

Wiebke Kurre, Friedhelm Brassel, Roland Brüning, Jan Buhk, Bernd Eckert, Susanna Horner, Michael Knauth, Thomas Liebig, Jana Maskova, Dirk Mucha, Vojtech Sychra, Matthias Sitzer, Michael Sonnberger, Marc Tietke, Johannes Trenkler, Bernd Turowski, Joachim Berkefeld

Introduction: Using balloon-expandable stents (BES) for treatment of intracranial stenoses, high inflation pressures and rigidity of the device are regarded as major drawbacks limiting feasibility and safety of the procedure. Self-expanding stents (SES) were developed to facilitate lesion access and to allow for less aggressive dilatation. We analyzed data of the INTRASTENT multicentric registry to assess whether self-expanding stents significantly reduced peri-interventional complication rates.

JOURNAL OF NEUROSURGERY. Symptomatic patients with intraluminal carotid artery thrombus: outcome with a strategy of initial anticoagulation

Ananth K. Vellimana, M.D., Yasha Kadkhodayan, M.D., Keith M. Rich, M.D., DeWitte T. Cross III, M.D., Christopher J. Moran, M.D., Allyson R. Zazulia, M.D., Jin-Moo Lee, M.D., Ph.D, Michael R. Chicoine, M.D., Ralph G. Dacey Jr., M.D., Colin P. Derdeyn, M.D, and Gregory J. Zipfel, M.D.

Object: The aim of this study was to define the optimal treatment for patients with symptomatic intraluminal carotid artery thrombus (ICAT).
