Cerebral Angiography and Neurointervention with Dr. Ahmed Sameh Nada

Cerebral Angiography and Neurointervention are used to diagnose and treat vascular diseases affecting the brain and spinal cord.

These techniques may be used to assess:

• Brain aneurysms.
• Arteriovenous malformations.
• Dural arteriovenous fistulas.
• Carotid cavernous fistulas.
• Arterial narrowing or occlusion.
• Selected spinal vascular abnormalities.

In some cases, diagnosis and treatment can be performed through the same endovascular pathway.

What Is Cerebral Angiography?

Cerebral angiography is a catheter-based procedure used to visualize blood vessels supplying the brain.

A thin catheter is introduced through an artery, commonly from the groin or wrist, and guided toward the cerebral circulation.

The procedure may be used for:

• Diagnostic cerebral angiography.
• Aneurysm coiling.
• Embolization.
• Stent placement.
• Mechanical thrombectomy.
• Flow diverter placement.

The exact technique depends on the diagnosis.

Brain Aneurysm Treatment with Dr. Ahmed Sameh Nada

A Brain Aneurysm is a weakened, bulging area in the wall of a cerebral artery.

Aneurysms may be discovered:

• Incidentally on imaging.
• During evaluation of headaches or neurological symptoms.
• After subarachnoid hemorrhage.
• During assessment of another neurological condition.

Treatment depends on aneurysm size, location, shape, rupture status, patient age, and other risk factors.

Does Every Brain Aneurysm Need Treatment?

No.

Some small aneurysms may be monitored with imaging, while others require treatment because of their size, anatomy, symptoms, or rupture risk.

Assessment may include:

• Aneurysm size.
• Location.
• Shape and neck width.
• Presence of symptoms.
• Previous rupture.
• Family history.
• Patient age.
• Associated risk factors.

Dr. Ahmed Sameh Nada evaluates whether observation, endovascular treatment, or microsurgical treatment is more appropriate.

Brain Aneurysm Coiling

Aneurysm Coiling is an endovascular technique used to treat selected cerebral aneurysms.

Small coils are placed inside the aneurysm through a catheter to reduce blood flow into it and promote isolation of the aneurysm from the circulation.

Suitability depends on aneurysm anatomy and location.

Balloon-Assisted Coiling

Balloon-Assisted Coiling may be used for selected aneurysms with a broad neck.

A temporary balloon is positioned across the aneurysm neck while coils are inserted to help keep them within the aneurysm.

Stent-Assisted Coiling

Stent-Assisted Coiling may be used for wide-neck cerebral aneurysms.

A stent is placed inside the parent artery to provide support while coils are inserted into the aneurysm.

Flow Diverter Treatment

Flow Diverter Stents are specialized devices used to treat selected cerebral aneurysms.

They redirect blood flow along the normal artery and reduce flow into the aneurysm, allowing gradual thrombosis and vessel healing.

Flow diversion may be considered for selected:

• Large aneurysms.
• Wide-neck aneurysms.
• Complex aneurysms.
• Aneurysms that are difficult to treat with conventional coiling.

Microsurgical Clipping of Brain Aneurysms

In some patients, Microsurgical Clipping is more appropriate than endovascular treatment.

During surgery, a clip is placed across the aneurysm neck to exclude it from the circulation.

The choice between clipping and coiling depends on aneurysm anatomy, location, rupture status, patient age, and other clinical factors.

Subarachnoid Hemorrhage from a Ruptured Brain Aneurysm

A ruptured aneurysm can cause Subarachnoid Hemorrhage, SAH.

Symptoms may include:

• Sudden severe headache.
• Vomiting.
• Loss of consciousness.
• Neck stiffness.
• Seizures.
• Neurological weakness.

This is a medical emergency requiring urgent assessment in a specialized center.

Mechanical Thrombectomy with Dr. Ahmed Sameh Nada

Mechanical Thrombectomy is a catheter-based procedure used to remove certain large blood clots causing acute ischemic stroke.

Time is a critical factor in stroke care.

In suitable patients, a catheter is advanced to the blocked artery and the clot is removed to restore cerebral blood flow.

When Is Mechanical Thrombectomy Used?

Patient selection depends on factors such as:

• Time of symptom onset.
• Location of the blocked artery.
• Extent of established brain injury.
• Amount of potentially salvageable brain tissue.
• CT Brain findings.
• CT Angiography.
• CT Perfusion in selected patients.
• MRI or MR Perfusion in selected situations.

Not every ischemic stroke is suitable for thrombectomy.

Symptoms of Acute Stroke

Urgent symptoms include:

• Sudden facial weakness.
• Sudden weakness of an arm or leg.

• Reduced consciousness.

Stroke is an emergency and requires immediate hospital evaluation.

Stent Retriever Thrombectomy

A Stent Retriever can be deployed inside the blocked artery to engage the clot and remove it.

The technique is selected according to clot location, anatomy, and procedural strategy.

Aspiration Thrombectomy

Aspiration Thrombectomy uses a specialized catheter to apply suction directly to the clot.

It may be used alone or in combination with other thrombectomy techniques.

Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion

Middle Cerebral Artery, MCA, Occlusion is a common cause of large-vessel ischemic stroke.

It may cause:

• Severe weakness on one side.
• Facial drooping.
• Speech difficulty.
• Sensory loss.

Selected patients may benefit from mechanical thrombectomy.

Basilar Artery Occlusion

Basilar Artery Occlusion is a serious posterior circulation stroke.

Possible symptoms include:

• Reduced consciousness.
• Weakness of multiple limbs.
• Severe balance disturbance.
• Double vision.
• Difficulty speaking or swallowing.
• Coma in severe cases.

Urgent imaging and neurovascular assessment are required to determine whether endovascular treatment is appropriate.

Brain AVM Treatment with Dr. Ahmed Sameh Nada

A Brain Arteriovenous Malformation, AVM, is an abnormal connection between arteries and veins in the brain.

It may present with:

• Intracranial hemorrhage.
• Seizures.
• Headache.
• Weakness or numbness.
• Other neurological symptoms.

Treatment depends on AVM size, location, vascular anatomy, and rupture risk.

Brain AVM Embolization

Endovascular Embolization can be used to close selected blood vessels feeding an AVM.

It may be used:

• As a primary treatment in selected cases.

A Dural Arteriovenous Fistula, DAVF, is an abnormal vascular connection within the covering membranes of the brain.

Symptoms may include:

• Pulsatile tinnitus.
• Headache.
• Neurological symptoms.
• Intracranial hemorrhage in higher-risk fistulas.
• Cerebral venous hypertension.

Treatment depends heavily on the venous drainage pattern.

Endovascular Treatment of DAVF

DAVF may be treated using endovascular embolization.

Techniques may involve:

• Liquid embolic agents.
• Coils.
• Arterial embolization.
• Venous embolization in selected cases.

Some cases may require surgery instead of, or in addition to, endovascular treatment.

Carotid Cavernous Fistula

A Carotid Cavernous Fistula, CCF, is an abnormal connection between the carotid arterial system and the cavernous sinus behind the eye.

Possible symptoms include:

• Red eye.
• Eye swelling.
• Proptosis.

Spinal angiography is often important for identifying the exact location and blood supply of the fistula.

Carotid Artery Stenosis with Dr. Ahmed Sameh Nada

Carotid Artery Stenosis is narrowing of one of the major arteries supplying blood to the brain.

Severe carotid stenosis can increase the risk of ischemic stroke.

Assessment includes:

• Degree of stenosis.
• Whether the patient has had symptoms.
• Previous stroke or TIA.
• Age.
• Arterial anatomy.
• Associated medical conditions.

Carotid Artery Stenting

In selected patients, Carotid Artery Stenting can be used to widen the narrowed artery and support blood flow with a stent.

It is not suitable for every patient, and surgery or medical treatment may be more appropriate in some situations.

Intracranial Artery Stenosis

Intracranial Artery Stenosis is narrowing of an artery inside the skull.

It may lead to:

• Transient ischemic attacks.
• Recurrent stroke.
• Cerebral hypoperfusion.

Treatment often begins with intensive medical therapy and risk-factor control, while selected patients may require additional intervention.

Selected pituitary tumors can be removed through the nose using Endoscopic Transsphenoidal Surgery.

This allows access to the pituitary region without a traditional craniotomy in suitable cases.

Acoustic Neuroma

Acoustic Neuroma, or Vestibular Schwannoma, is a tumor that usually develops from the balance nerve.

Symptoms may include:

• Hearing loss.
• Tinnitus.
• Dizziness.
• Balance disturbance.
