Introduction Intracranial arteriovenous malformations (AVM) are a demanding pathology to treat. There is ample discussion about which single modality or which amalgam of modalities is the most optimal, i.e., endovascular…
Introduction Since the initial introduction of endovascular coiling techniques by Guglielmi in 1991, endovascular therapies for intracranial aneurysms have evolved. Initially, intrasaccular coiling and parent vessel occlusion with coils after…
Endovascular Treatment in the Management of Arteriovenous Access Arteriovenous access surgery provides a lifeline for those patients with end-stage renal disease in need of hemodialysis. The high flow arteriovenous anastomosis…
Introduction Interventionalists are especially cautious with carotid artery stenting (CAS) because complications can lead to devastating and permanent neurological sequelae, even death. Preparation for CAS can often seem excessive; however,…
Introduction Arteriovenous (AV) access for dialysis is established by connecting an artery and a vein together to create the superficial, high-flow conduit necessary for easy access and efficient dialysis. This…
Introduction Many patients with symptomatic iliofemoral deep vein thromboses (DVTs) are now undergoing intervention to minimize thrombus burden in order to decrease venous pressures and preserve valve function. For patients…
Introduction Endovenous ablation has become the treatment of choice for chronic venous disease (CVD) and chronic venous insufficiency (CVI). There are many different types of modalities to treat CVI, including…
Introduction Intra-arterial devices used to assist in the management of critically ill patients with cardiopulmonary failure have become commonplace at most advanced medical centers in the past decade. Extracorporeal membrane…
Introduction Central venous catheters can be placed for a number of indications, including hemodialysis, chemotherapy, parenteral nutrition, and antibiotics. The intended duration of the catheters can be categorized as acute…
Introduction Endovascular treatment of complex (TASC C and D) lesions of the aortoiliac arteries has been increasingly adopted since the early 2000s, especially after the introduction of stent grafts. Although…
