The Ischemic Stroke Casebook


Free Download The Ischemic Stroke Casebook: Clinical and Endovascular Approaches to Revascularization
English | 2024 | ISBN: 3031472004 | 1181 Pages | PDF (True) | 200 MB
This encyclopedic reference takes into account the status of interventional neuroradiology in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. It explains and discusses the various options to recanalize occluded extra-and intracranial vessels. The book provides an in-depth description of the different endovascular treatment strategies, including thrombectomy for large vessel inclusion, balloon angioplasty and intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis, and stenting of extra- and intracranial arterial dissections and their conservative treatment, and bypass surgery for subacute and chronic cerebral hypoperfusion. The book also offers tips and tricks for each procedure to enable readers to understand better the benefits and limitations of the endovascular management of ischemic stroke patients. Similarly, it explains the technical aspects of the procedures with their respective pros and cons. Written by respected experts in the field, the book will be a valuable resource for interventional neuroradiologists and neurologists, vascular and endovascular neurosurgeons, stroke neurologists, and other practitioners at all levels of experience.
