Abstract

Endovascular therapy for cerebrovascular occlusive disease is perhaps the most exciting of the new and still developing therapies for the management of cerebrovascular disease. This treatment modality is appealing because it is less invasive compared with conventional surgery, e.g., carotid endarterectomy (CEA) or extracranial-intracranial bypass, and it can benefit patients who are not surgical candidates.
