Endovascular treatment of cerebral aneurysms in elderly patients.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:Stasis filling, defined as delayed, weak, and persistent opacification of proximal segments of the cerebral arteries, is frequently found in brain dead patients. This phenomenon causes a major problem in the development of reliable computed tomographic angiography (CTA) protocol in the diagnosis of brain d...
