NEUROVASCULAR OVERVIEW 

Neurovascular conditions involve abnormalities of the brain’s blood vessels, including aneurysms, AVMs, cavernomas, and stroke-related disorders.

Some conditions remain stable for years, while others may cause bleeding, seizures, weakness, or neurological symptoms requiring urgent treatment.

Treatment depends on the type, size, location, and overall health of the patient. The goal is to provide accurate diagnosis, reduce complications, and preserve brain function and quality of life.

TYPES OF NEUROVACULAR


Brain Aneurysm

Weak bulging area in a brain blood vessel that may leak or rupture.

  Brain AVM

 Abnormal tangled blood   vessels disrupting normal   blood flow.

  Cavernoma

 Cluster of fragile   abnormal blood vessels     prone to small bleeding.

  Stroke

 Disruption of blood flow   to the brain due to   blockage or bleeding.

  Hemorrhagic Stroke

 Bleeding within the brain   caused by ruptured   blood vessels. 

Accurate diagnosis through advanced imaging (MRI/CT/Angiogrophy) is essential for proper treatment planning

COMMON SYMTOMS

Headache

Persistent, sudden, or unusual headaches.

Vision Problems

Blurred or double vision or other visual disturbances.

Weakness / Numbness

Weakness affecting the face, arm, or leg.

Seizures

Sudden shaking or loss of consciousness in someone with no prior history.

Speech Difficulties

Slurred speech or difficulty understanding words.

Balance Problems

Difficulty walking, dizziness, or loss of coordination.

Symptoms vary depending on the condition, severity, and location in the brain.


 When to See a   Neurosurgeon ?

  • Persistent or worsening headaches
  • Seizures or unexplained neurological symptoms
  • Weakness or numbness
  • Vision or speech problems
  • Known aneurysm, AVM, or cavernoma
  • Stroke recovery or evaluation


 Seek emergency care if you  experience :

  • Sudden severe headache
  • Sudden weakness or paralysis
  • Loss of consciousness
  • Seizures
  • Sudden speech difficulty
  • Sudden collapse

Treatment Options

Endovascular Procedures

Minimally invasive treatment performed through blood vessels to manage aneurysms and vascular abnormalities.

Observation & Monitoring

Regular MRI or CT scans for stable conditions that may not require immediate intervention.

Microsurgical Care

Advanced surgical procedures to remove or repair abnormal blood vessels while preserving brain function.

  • Regular imaging follow-up
  • Risk assessment
  • Blood pressure control
  • Lifestyle optimisation
  • Coiling
  • Embolisation
  • Flow diversion
  • Open Skull Base SurgeryCatheter-based techniques
  • Aneurysm clipping
  • AVM removal
  • Cavernoma surgery
  • Bleeding control

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Are all neurovascular conditions dangerous?

Not always. Some conditions remain stable and only require regular monitoring and follow-up.

Will I need surgery?

Treatment depends on the condition, symptoms, scan findings, and overall neurological risk assessment.

Can stroke recovery improve over time?

Yes. Early treatment and rehabilitation can improve recovery and help reduce long-term complications.

Are minimally invasive treatments available?

Yes. Many neurovascular conditions are treated using minimally invasive endovascular therapies.

Can I live a normal life after treatment?

Many patients return to normal life with treatment, rehabilitation, monitoring, and follow-up care.
