Background: Given the lack of models for carotid artery dissections (CAD), we aim to investigate effects of beta-aminopropionitrile (BAPN) combined with physical damage on the arterial walls of rats, ...

Spontaneous resolution of direct CCF is rare and is associated with low-flow connections, hypotension, severe ocular symptoms, carotid artery dissection or spasm and elevated intracranial pressure.

Vascular. 2005;13(4):205-210. The number of connectors is not the only factor influencing stent flexibility. More important is the way in which the connectors are shaped straight bridges are less ...
