Cerebrovascular disorders was the more general term in the tree, and this term included cerebrovascular accident and brain infarction as well as terms that were unrelated to my patient, such as basal ganglia cerebrovascular disease, carotid artery diseases, dementia, and vascular headaches. As endovascular surgeons continue to play an ever-increasing role in the management of both cerebrovascular disorders and malignancies in and around the skull base, we are beginning to see disorders such as CBS with increasing frequency. Diseases covered include cerebrovascular disorders, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy and ischemic optic neuropathy. |
