Overview
Cerebral Angioplasty
This is often the treatment choice if you’ve had several small strokes that can’t be treated with medication. The surgeon inserts a small balloon into one of the blood vessels supplying the brain. The balloon enlarges the vessel and increases blood flow.Treats These Conditions: -
- Stroke
There are three types of stroke: -
- Ischemic Stroke – This is caused by a blocked artery leading to the brain. The plaque that blocks these arteries can break open or rupture, causing a blood clot to form inside the artery and stopping blood flow to the brain.
- Hemorrhagic Stroke – This is caused by an artery rupture in or near the brain.
- Mini Stroke – Also called a Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA), this causes stroke-like symptoms when clots form and then break apart in arteries going to the brain. A mini-stroke is usually a warning sign that a major stroke is about to occur.
