Covered Stents for the Prevention and Treatment of Carotid Blowout Syndrome.

abstract：:Delayed ischemic neurological deficit (DIND) remains a major unsolved problem in the management of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). For many years, the complications reported with acute aneurysm surgery caused surgeons to operate late after SAH. In a 42-month-period, we managed 146 patients with aneurysm and/...
