The anterior choroidal artery (AChA) is a critical artery in brain physiology and function. The
AChA is involved in many diseases, including aneurysm, brain infarct, Moyamoya disease …

OBJECTIVE Antifibrinolytics, such as tranexamic acid (TXA), have been shown to decrease
intraoperative blood loss across multiple surgical disciplines. However, they carry the …

Purpose Excision of intracranial meningioma has been associated with major intraoperative
blood loss (IBL). The objective of the study was to identify factors affecting IBL during …

Presurgical embolization (PE) has emerged as an interesting strategy to help turn brain
tumor resection more amenable. This study aims to systematically review the safety and …

Background and purpose Pre-surgical embolization of large intracranial meningioma has
been demonstrated to decrease blood loss and to improve the resectability of the tumor. Few …

Abstract Background and Purpose The utility of preoperative embolization remains
controversial within the literature. Here, we evaluate whether preoperative meningioma …

Objective Skull base meningiomas carry a nonnegligible risk of recurrence. In particular,
those arising from the sphenoid wings or middle cranial fossa penetrate into extracranial …

OBJECTIVE Meningiomas that appear hypervascular on neuroimaging could be amenable
to preoperative embolization. However, methods for measuring hypervascularity have not …

OBJECTIVE. Preoperative identification of hypervascular meningiomas can potentially
detect those that may benefit from presurgical embolization, which may help to minimize …

Objective To describe longitudinal image changes in supratentorial hemispheric
meningiomas based on magnetic resonance imaging after preoperative embolization using …
