  • Title: [Results of percutaneous transluminal dilatation of cerebral vascular stenoses].
    Author: Kachel R, Ritter H, Grossmann K, Glaser FH.
    Journal: Rofo; 1986 Mar; 144(3):338-42. PubMed ID: 3008238.
    Abstract:
    The present paper is a review of 37 successful catheter dilatations of supra-aortic vascular stenoses. There were sixteen patients with a total of 21 stenoses of the internal carotid, vertebral artery or common carotid artery and sixteen patients with subclavian stenoses. Amongst the patients with stenoses of the cerebral vessels, there were ten with multiple lesions and six with a single stenosis. Three patients had successful dilatations of bilateral stenoses. The indications, technique, and complications of catheter dilatation of lesions of the cerebral vessels are described and discussed.
