These services provide patients with minimally invasive treatment options for a range of complex cerebrovascular conditions. Our team of highly skilled neurosurgeons and interventional radiologists works together to deliver exceptional care, ensuring the best possible outcomes for our patients.

What is Endovascular/Interventional Neurosurgery?

Endovascular/interventional neurosurgery is a specialized field that involves treating vascular disorders of the brain and spine using minimally invasive techniques. This approach utilizes catheters and other small instruments navigated through the blood vessels to reach the affected area, often resulting in reduced recovery times, less pain, and lower risk of complications than traditional open surgery.

Conditions Treated

Our endovascular/interventional neurosurgery team at Shalby Hospitals treats a wide array of conditions, including but not limited to:

Cerebral Aneurysms: Treating aneurysms through techniques such as coiling and flow diversion to prevent rupture.
Arteriovenous Malformations (AVMs): Minimally invasive procedures to correct abnormal blood vessel connections.
Carotid Artery Stenosis: Stenting and angioplasty to prevent strokes.
Acute Ischemic Stroke: Utilizing thrombectomy to remove clots and restore blood flow to the brain.
Intracranial Stenosis: Angioplasty and stenting for narrowed brain arteries.
Spinal Vascular Malformations: Treatment of abnormal blood vessels in the spine.
Chronic Subdural Hematomas: Minimally invasive techniques to drain accumulated blood and reduce pressure on the brain.
Facial Vascular Malformations :
Our Advanced Techniques
Shalby Hospitals employs a variety of advanced techniques to ensure precise and effective treatment:
Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA): High-resolution imaging to visualize blood vessels.
Embolization: Blocking abnormal blood vessels or bleeding using coils, glue, or other agents.
Thrombolysis: Dissolving blood clots using medication.
Balloon Angioplasty: Widening narrowed arteries using a balloon catheter.
Stent Placement: Inserting a stent to keep arteries open.
Mechanical Thrombectomy: Removing clots from blood vessels to treat stroke.

Diagnostic Procedures

Cerebral Angiography: A specialized X-ray test where a contrast dye is injected into the blood vessels to visualize blood flow in the brain.
CT Angiography (CTA): Combines CT scanning and angiography to provide detailed images of blood vessels.
Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA): Uses magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed images of blood vessels.

Benefits of Endovascular Neurosurgery

Minimally Invasive: Procedures are performed through small incisions, reducing recovery time and risk of infection.
Shorter Hospital Stays: Patients often experience quicker recovery and can leave the hospital sooner compared to traditional surgery.
Reduced Risk: Lower risk of complications such as bleeding and infection.
