Abstract:
A variety of procedures have developed for the surgical augmentation of collateral circulation to the brain in some cerebral or cerebellar lesions such as hemodynamic ischemic stroke, giant aneurysm of circle of willis or skull base tumor. Carotid endarterectomy and extracranial-intracranial arterial bypass (EIAB) are included in surgical revascularization (SR), and thrombolysis and transluminal percutaneous angioplasty and/or stenting (PTAS) are included in endovascular revascularization (ER). This article focuses the revascularization procedure related complications in patients treated with surgical or endovascular revascularization.
