Article Abstract

Congenital vascular malformation (CVM) between the external carotid artery and the internal jugular vein is a rare disease, it originates as a consequence of arrested development during various stages of embryogenesis. The natural history of CMVs is progressive growth, it can remain clinically silent until it progresses causing local swelling accompanied by symptoms and signs of arteriovenous shunting, mass effect, ischemic insult with ulceration of skin or bleeding. In literature only few cases of CMVs have been reported, therefore there is still no consensus about the correct surgical approach to this pathology. We report an uncomplicated case of CVMs in a 15-year-old female successfully treated with coils embolization. To our knowledge, this is the eighth reported case in the literature review.

ObjectiveThis study aims to determine the outcomes of nickel allergic patients who underwent a trial of forearm arterial stenting with a nickel-based stent, with follow-up to assess for an allergic reaction. In the absence of adverse effects, patients had their intracranial aneurysm treatment with a nickel-based cerebrovascular device.MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed on patients who had an allergy to nickel, with an intracranial aneurysm who underwent treatment with a permanently implanted nickel-containing device.

Isolated spinal aneurysms with spontaneous regression.

Neurosurg Rev

September 2025

Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Neuroradiology, University Hospital Tübingen, Tübingen, Germany.

Purpose: To share our clinical experience with conservative management of isolated spinal arterial aneurysms (ISAs) and to identify clinical scenarios where conservative management may be appropriate, in the context of a literature review.

Methods: We performed a retrospective review of spinal angiograms from two German neuroradiology centers and conducted a systematic literature review of reported ISA cases. We analyzed demographics, clinical presentation, imaging findings, treatments, and outcomes.

The role of intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) in patients with tandem lesions (TL) undergoing endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) remains a subject of ongoing debate. The substantial clot burden and the potential need for periprocedural antiplatelet therapy during emergent carotid stenting (CAS) add to the complexity of treatment decisions. This study aims to systematically review and meta-analyze the literature to evaluate the comparative safety and efficacy of IVT plus EVT versus EVT alone in AIS patients with TL.

Background: Carotid blowout syndrome (CBS) is a life-threatening emergency involving the rupture of the carotid arteries and/or branches, often following surgery and radiotherapy for head and neck cancer. Our case series aimed to describe airway management strategies, endovascular and surgical approaches, perioperative resuscitation management, and clinical outcomes in a cohort of patients with CBS at a tertiary referral academic health center.

Methods: We retrospectively identified patients presenting with CBS between 2017 and 2021.
