Stent-Jack Technique for Ruptured Vertebral Artery Dissecting Aneurysm Involving the Origin of Posterior Inferior Cerebellar Artery / 신경중재치료의학

We herein report a case of a ruptured vertebral artery dissecting aneurysm involving the origin of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery that was treated using the stent-jack technique. After parent artery occlusion of the distal vertebral artery, stenting of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery was performed. Further coiling was needed because distal vertebral artery recanalization occurred due to transformation of the coil mass. The stent-jack technique for a ruptured vertebral artery dissecting aneurysm involving the origin of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery is effective; however, careful attention to recanalization after stenting is needed due to transformation of the coil mass.

Endovascular Treatment of Intracranial AVM / 대한뇌혈관학회지

Since 1983, we have experienced endovascular treatment of intracranial AVMs.2)3) Superselective catheterization of feeding artery, embolization or feeding artery occlusion of the cerebral AVMs have been performed for 73 cases in 134 sessions. Endovascular treatment of intracranial AVMs such as embolization or feeding artery occlusion have been performed for 57 cases of AVMs in 95 sessions. In each time, endovascular approach was performed for two to five feeding arteries, so more than 300 feeding arteries were catheterized by microcatheters or balloon catheters. In this report, we present our experiences of endovascular treatment of intracranial AVMs and discuss embolic materials and the role of endovascular treatment of intracranial. AVMs.
