Effect of nimodipine on cerebrovascular response to CO2 in asymptomatic individuals and patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage: a transcranial Doppler ultrasound study.

abstract：OBJECTIVE AND IMPORTANCE:The endovascular treatment of carotid-cavernous dural fistulae is becoming the prominent treatment modality for these lesions. The intractability of these lesions and their tendency to recur, especially after previous endovascular treatment sessions, exhausts the available routes and tends to p...
