Endovascular Therapy for Intracranial Atherosclerotic Stenosis presents selected cases of endovascular treatment for intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS), providing detailed information on periprocedural medical management, endovascular strategies, device selection, and follow-up outcomes. The book serves to improve understanding of ICAS and share clinical experiences from high-volume stroke intervention centres with neuro-interventionalists. The book reviews recent developments in ICAS management and presents evidence that appropriate patient selection and peri-operative planning may contribute to the effectiveness of endovascular therapy for ICAS
- Includes case-based examples of clinical history, physical examination and imaging findings, together with procedure detail and subsequent follow-up progress. This allows the reader to follow through the clinical reasoning of how the treatment strategy was directed towards the individual patient
- Many real-patent cases with ICAS (intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis) at different vessels with different severity and morphology are described
- Perioperative complications with associated management strategies are discussed
