Summary Over the past decades many surgical subspecialties have moved from traditionally open procedures towards minimally invasive approaches. With the advent of improved technology and smaller more maneuverable devices more delicate procedures have been developed. In this volume the most common neuroendovascular procedures currently practiced are discussed. Topics include management of intracranial aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations, tumors, intracranial and extracranial arterial stenoses, and arterial fistulas. This publication provides neurosurgeons, radiologists, neurologists, and trial lawye
