Abstract
Recent case reports suggest that endovascular recanalization may be safe and feasible for vertebral artery occlusion (VAO) patients without a stump, however, comprehensive management strategies for endovascular recanalization remain poorly understood. In this technical note, we describe the REVANS technique in patients with VAO lacking a stump. The REVANS technique demonstrates promise as a viable option for managing symptomatic non-acute VAO without a visible stump. This approach leverages cervical collateral vessels to retrogradely access and recanalize occluded vertebral artery segments, offering potential benefits in improving patient outcomes.
期刊介绍：
Neuroradiology aims to provide state-of-the-art medical and scientific information in the fields of Neuroradiology, Neurosciences, Neurology, Psychiatry, Neurosurgery, and related medical specialities. Neuroradiology as the official Journal of the European Society of Neuroradiology receives submissions from all parts of the world and publishes peer-reviewed original research, comprehensive reviews, educational papers, opinion papers, and short reports on exceptional clinical observations and new technical developments in the field of Neuroimaging and Neurointervention. The journal has subsections for Diagnostic and Interventional Neuroradiology, Advanced Neuroimaging, Paediatric Neuroradiology, Head-Neck-ENT Radiology, Spine Neuroradiology, and for submissions from Japan. Neuroradiology aims to provide new knowledge about and insights into the function and pathology of the human nervous system that may help to better diagnose and treat nervous system diseases. Neuroradiology is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and follows the COPE core practices. Neuroradiology prefers articles that are free of bias, self-critical regarding limitations, transparent and clear in describing study participants, methods, and statistics, and short in presenting results. Before peer-review all submissions are automatically checked by iThenticate to assess for potential overlap in prior publication.
