JIMENEZ YEPES, CARLOS MARIO. TREATMENT OF CEREBRAL VASOSPASM ASSOCIATED WITH SUBARACHNOID HEMORRHAGE BY MEANS OF PERCUTANEOUS BALLOON ANGIOPLASTY: REPORT OF THREE CASES. Iatreia [online]. 2002, vol.15, n.3, pp.164-169. ISSN 0121-0793.
SUCCESFUL TREATMENT OF CEREBRAL VASOSPASM by using percutaneous balloon angioplasty is reported in three cases. All patients were in bad condition with a short therapeutic window. All of them had a good recovery, both in terms of angiographic and clinical criteria. Use of endovascular therapy of spastic vessels by means of balloon percutaneous angioplasty in selected patients, is a good choice for treatment of cerebral vasospasm associated with spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage.
