[Endovascular approach in the management of intracranial aneurysms. Part 1: basic concepts and devices]. / Perspectiva endovascular en el manejo de los aneurismas intracraneales. Parte 1: Conceptos básicos y dispositivos.

ABSTRACT

Neurological endovascular therapy is a discipline that has shown effectiveness and safety in the management of intracranial aneurysms, however recanalization persists as one of the most important obstacles to overcome. Precise knowledge of the anatomy and hemodynamics of the aneurysm and the parent artery as well as currently available endovascular devices, are decisive in the analysis and to design a specific treatment plan for each case. In this manner we ensure, as long as possible, success and durability of the treatment.
