Background and purpose Endosaccular coil embolization and parent artery occlusion (PAO) are established endovascular techniques for treatment of cavernous carotid aneurysms. We performed a systematic ...

Objective Cavernous carotid aneurysms (CCAs) can present with visual symptoms or with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). As surgical treatment of these aneurysms can be technically challenging, ...

Background and Purpose—We report the first case of pituitary apoplexy caused by the rupture of an intracavernous carotid artery aneurysm embedded in a pituitary adenoma. Case Description—A 46-year-old ...

Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is the extravasation of blood into the subarachnoid space between the pial and arachnoid membranes. The most common causes of spontaneous SAH are rupture of a saccular ...

Lumped method (Electrical analogy) is one of the reliable ways to model human cardiovascular system. In this study, cardiovascular system is simulated using lumped method and complemented by extra ...

A brain aneurysm (also called a cerebral aneurysm or an intracranial aneurysm) is a ballooning arising from a weakened area in the wall of a blood vessel in the brain. If the brain aneurysm expands ...

A conversation was had with the patient regarding management options for his symptomatic severe right ICA ISR (measuring 80% by NASCET criteria); procedural considerations included medical management ...

Brain aneurysms, balloon-like bulges in brain blood vessels, often go unnoticed until rupture, leading to hemorrhagic stroke. Dr. Praveen Gupta emphasizes early detection, especially for high-risk ...

Isolated dissecting aneurysms of the coronary arteries — that is, in the absence of dissection of the aorta — are extremely rare. Perusal of the literature disclosed only 13 cases (Table 1).

Thickening of intima-media complex in the common carotid artery is a biomarker of atherosclerosis. To automatically measure this thickness, we propose a region-based segmentation method, involving a ...
