Endovascular neurointervention nowadays plays an important role in the effective treatment of different head and neck vascular pathologies using minimally invasive means. In Iraq, until recently, endovascular neurointervention field is nearly absent. A new hope was started when an advanced neurointerventional center was created to improve and develop this field in Iraq.
