TL;DR: A case of massive posterior epistaxis caused by a cavernous internal carotid artery aneurysm treated with endovascular placement of electrolytically detachable platinum embolization coils and discusses aspects of using these above coils for this condition.

TL;DR: The balloon-anchoring technique was successfully used to realign a PED that had prolapsed into a giant ICA aneurysm, which represents a useful salvage technique that should be considered when encountering a prolapsed stent.

TL;DR: A combined approach of acute surgical stabilization followed by definitive endovascular reconstruction may reduce hemorrhagic complications while improving long term treatment durability.

TL;DR: Advances in endovascular technology have inspired the adoption of interventional techniques both as stand-alone treatment and as part of a multi-modality management paradigm for sAVMs, and further refinements in liquid embolic agents as well as improved microcatheter navigability will contribute to an ever-expanding role for endov vascular intervention in the management of these lesions.

TL;DR: Five patients with complicated histories of shunt malfunction were treated using an endoscope-assisted technique that demonstrates the patency of the jugular vein through venography, facilitates identification of the internal jugular veins in the neck, and provides a quick way to confirm that the distal end of the atrial catheter has been placed correctly.
