Odontoid calcification and crowned dens syndrome: data from a Chinese center.

abstract：:Endolymphatic sac tumors are rare, low-grade adenocarcinomas of the petrous bone. These tumors are highly vascularized and surgical removal is often challenging. We present a staged endovascular-neurosurgical approach consisting of stent-assisted angioplasty of the petrous carotid, selective endovascular embolization ...
