Endovascular neurosurgery is a modern branch of neurosurgery, by means of which surgical treatment of vascular pathologies of the head and spinal cord is carried out with a minimally invasive method, without open surgical intervention (trepanation). This field is the fastest developing field in the world, which is primarily aimed at improving the quality of the patient's health. The approach is performed from the femoral artery (inside the blood vessel), which reduces the trauma of the operation, as well as the duration of postoperative rehabilitation, and dramatically improves the overall outcome of the patient. With this method, it is possible to treat such diseases as:
- Arterial Aneurysms
- Arteriovenous Malformations and Fistulas
- Intracranial and Extracranial Stenoses
- Carotid-Cavernous Fistulas
- Arteriovenous Shunts
- Ischemic Stroke (Thromboaspiration, Thrombectomy)
