Synopsis

Neurointerventional surgery is a key technology in the diagnosis and treatment of cerebral and spinal vascular diseases. It is necessary to understand its development history and understand the logic of techniques development. This book summarizes the development of neurointerventional techniques as a process of visualization, delivery systems, and embolic materials, and illustrates the interdisciplinary characteristics of this field through typical cases. The history of neurointerventional surgery falls naturally into the premodern era, where it is essentially the history of direct puncture to the cerebral aneurysms and of traumatic carotid cavernous fistulas, and the modern era, where it is the history of intra-vascular to the intracranial vessels itself, made possible by visualization of intracranial vascular lesions, accessibility of catheters and guidewires, controllability of embolic materials and safety of anesthesia, all of which developed in the twentieth century.
