Angioplasty and Stenting of Intracranial Stenosis

Abstract

Stroke is a major medical health problem. The goal of stroke prevention can be achieved by modification of vascular risk factors and by use of antiplatelet and anticoagulant drugs. Unfortunately many patients with intracranial disease are refractory to medical management. In recent past there has been significant advancement in intracranial angioplasty and stenting due to better understanding of the disease and availability of better tools and technology. We are reporting 2 cases with 3 lesions dealt with intracranial angioplasty with or without stenting with excellent clinical results, of which we have follow up of more than 1 year. In our cases there was no periprocedural morbidity and mortality with no restenosis till 2 years of follow-up. In addition it also adds to quality of life as evident in our patients. Cerebral angioplasty and stenting may be beneficial to manage an intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis and to improve quality of life of patients. This initial result for cerebral angioplasty and stenting is promising and requires further studies. Keywords: Stroke, Intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis, Vascular risk, Neuro-radiological technique.
