Neurovascular Conditions and Treatments

Neurovascular

Neurovascular conditions are those in which an area of the brain is temporarily or permanently affected by bleeding or restriction in blood flow.

An arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is a tangle of abnormal blood vessels in the brain or spinal cord.

The carotid artery becomes narrowed due to atherosclerotic plaque and can be associated with stroke symptoms.

An abnormal cluster of dilated blood-filled channels and caverns lined by capillary-like vessel walls that can be found in the brain and spinal cord.

Sometimes discovered accidentally, an aneurysm is a weakened or thin spot in a brain artery that balloons or bulges out and fills with blood.

Cerebral arteriovenous fistulas are abnormal connections between arteries and veins that may or may not cause symptoms.

Found on the covering of the brain this is a short-circuit connection between an artery and vein that bypasses the normal capillary vessels.

Epistaxis is a nosebleed, or bleeding from the tissue lining the inside of the nose.

This type of bleeding can occur in damaged or weakened vessels that have previously been treated or in highly vascular tumors.

Intracerebral hemorrhage is the term used for bleeding in the brain and may be life-threatening.

Intracranial artery stenosis is a narrowing of arteries inside the brain due to plaque buildup, or atherosclerosis.

A rare medical condition that progressively narrows the internal carotid arteries carrying blood to the brain.

This is an abnormal connection between an artery and a vein in the spine.

One of two types of intracranial hemorrhage: intracerebral (on the brain) or subarachnoid (around the brain).

Ischemic stroke occurs when an area of the brain does not receive enough blood and oxygen.

A narrowing of portions or segments of one or more brain arteries.
