Article Synopsis
- Dural venous sinus stenting is a growing procedure in otolaryngology that works in tandem with neurosurgeons and neuroradiologists, having been introduced around 20 years ago.
- * It is now a standard treatment for patients experiencing increased intracranial pressure due to transverse sinus stenosis, with ENT doctors often being the first to diagnose these issues.
- * Traditional treatments like high-dose diuretics were largely ineffective, and other methods have posed serious risks, making endovascular sinus stenting a promising option for patients with specific clinical and imaging characteristics.
