3. Type of Endovascular Neurosurgery Procedures Performed
by Specialists
Thrombolytic Therapy
Endovascular Coiling
Cerebral Angiography
Carotid Artery
Angioplasty/Stenting

4. Thrombolytic Therapy
This endovascular
neurosurgery procedure
utilizes ‘clot-busting’
medications to dissolve
clots within blood vessels
in brain or within blood
vessels elsewhere in the
body.

5. Endovascular Coiling
Neurosurgeons will insert a
very thin metallic wire which
forms a coil inside brain
aneurysm so as to block the
blood flow. Brain aneurysm is
basically a bulging in the
weakened area of the artery
wall inside the brain which
results in ballooning or
abnormal widening. Since this
artery wall is having a
weakened spot, this aneurysm
is at risk of bursting in case
blood flow is not blocked. In
such a situation, aneurysm
can be effectively treated by
clipping or coiling it closed.

6. Minimally Invasive Spine
Surgery
This is a technique
which is commonly
used to treat spinal
disorders like
compressed nerves,
tumors, fractures &
many other
conditions which
put pressure on the
spinal cord.

7. This is a radiology
treatment procedure
which takes a look as to
how blood is flowing
within the brain.
Cerebral Angiography

8. Carotid Artery Angioplasty/Stenting
This endovascular
neurosurgery
procedure uses a
small balloon
and/or a tiny
scaffold known as a
stent in order to
open narrowed
carotid artery.
Carotid artery is
basically
responsible for
supplying blood to
brain.
