Venous sinus stenting improves cerebral autoregulation in a patient with venous sinus stenosis: a case report [PDF]
BMC Neurology, 2020 Background Venous sinus stenosis (VSS) is a type of cerebral venous vascular disease. Cerebral autoregulation is an indicator of cerebral arterial function. The cerebral circulatory system is composed of the venous system and arterial system.

Dural Venous Sinus Stenosis: Why Distinguishing Intrinsic-versus-Extrinsic Stenosis Matters. [PDF]
AJNR Am J Neuroradiol, 2021 Dural venous sinus stenosis has been associated with idiopathic intracranial hypertension and isolated venous pulsatile tinnitus. However, the utility of characterizing stenosis as intrinsic or extrinsic remains indeterminate. The aim of this retrospective study was to review preprocedural imaging of patients with symptomatic idiopathic intracranial ...

Safely traversing venous sinus stenosis: The "Cobra" technique. [PDF]
Interv Neuroradiol, 2020 Venous sinus stenting is an accepted and minimally invasive treatment for idiopathic intracranial hypertension associated with significant venous sinus stenosis. There is inherent difficulty in navigating past the region of venous stenosis in order to safely deliver and deploy a stent. We have developed the “Cobra” technique, which allows for the safe

Primary balloon angioplasty of venous Sinus stenosis in idiopathic intracranial hypertension. [PDF]
Interv Neuroradiol, 2023 Background Venous sinus stenosis (VSS) stenting has emerged as an effective treatment for patients with Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH). However, stenting carries risk of in-stent stenosis/thrombosis and cumulative bleeding risk from long-term dual antiplatelet (DAPT) use.

The incidence of obesity, venous sinus stenosis and cerebral hyperaemia in children referred for MRI to rule out idiopathic intracranial hypertension at a tertiary referral hospital: a 10 year review [PDF]
Fluids and Barriers of the CNS, 2020 Background Children referred to a tertiary hospital for the indication, “rule out idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH)” may have an increased risk of raised venous sinus pressure.

Endovascular stenting for idiopathic intracranial hypertension with venous sinus stenosis. [PDF]
Brain Behav, 2019 AbstractObjectivesIdiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is characterized by elevated intracranial pressure of unknown etiology and venous sinus stenting may be an optional treatment. We aimed to evaluate the effects of venous sinus stenting on visual function, intracranial pressure, and trans‐stenotic pressure gradient of the patients with IIH and

Pyloric Stenosis Leading to Sinus Venous Thrombosis; A Case Report
Marshall Journal of Medicine, 2020 Pyloric stenosis is typically diagnosed early and repaired after resuscitation and electrolyte correction in a timely manner. Delay in diagnosis or presentation of patient can lead to significant morbidity and even mortality.

The incidence of significant venous sinus stenosis and cerebral hyperemia in childhood hydrocephalus: prognostic value with regards to differentiating active from compensated disease [PDF]
Fluids and Barriers of the CNS, 2020 Background Symptomatic or active hydrocephalus in children is linked to an elevation in intracranial pressure (ICP), which is likely to be multifactorial in origin.
