By Mark R. Harrigan

Fully revised and up-to-date, the Handbook serves as a realistic consultant to endovascular tools and as a concise reference for neurovascular anatomy and released information approximately cerebrovascular sickness from a neurointerventionalist’s viewpoint. Divided into 3 elements, the booklet covers:

Fundamentals of neurovascular anatomy and simple angiographic strategies;
Interventional Techniques and endovascular tools, in addition to invaluable machine details and counsel and methods for day-by-day perform;
Specific illness States, with crucial scientific information regarding often encountered conditions.

New positive factors within the 2nd Edition include:

Global gem stones that light up points of the sector outdoor the United States;
Angio-anatomic and angio-pathologic snapshot correlates;
Newly published medical research effects influencing neurointerventional practice;
Information on rising applied sciences during this swiftly advancing field.

The Handbook is a crucial source for all clinicians curious about neurointerventional perform, together with radiologists, neurosurgeons, neurologists, cardiologists, and vascular surgeons.

It has three branches, the most superior of which curves up over the helix to anastamose with posterior auricular artery. 35 (c) Zygomatico-orbital artery (aka zygomaticotemporal) This variably prominent, anteriorly directed branch of the superficial temporal artery runs just superior to the zygomatic arch toward the lateral aspect of the orbit. 3. 7 (e) Frontal branch One of the two large terminal branches of the superficial temporal takes a tortuous course over the frontal scalp and supplies tissue from skin down to pericranium.

A 1-cm length of this segment may be exposed in the floor of the middle fossa lateral to the trigeminal nerve, and covered by dura only or a thin layer of cartilage. 103 (b) Periosteal branch i. Arises at the entrance of the ICA into the carotid canal. 4. Internal Carotid Artery ESSENTIAL NEUROVASCULAR ANATOMY ICA VP C IAC Fig. 17 Relationship between the pericarotid venous plexus and the cochlea. Drawing of a histological section through the temporal bone showing that the pericarotid venous plexus (VP) is most developed on the side of the ICA facing the cochlea (C) IAC, internal auditory canal.

E) Occipital (aka retroauricular) branch Also a fairly constant branch and is seen in 65% of cases. It supplies the scalp behind the ear. (f) Parietal branch A fairly inconstant branch seen only when the superficial temporal does not have a dominant parietal branch. It has the typical ascending, tortuous appearance of a scalp vessel. 3. External Carotid Artery 19 superior to the ear, depending on the dominance of the superficial temporal and occipital arteries. It anastamoses with the superficial temporal and occipital arteries via the scalp and auricular branches.
