Application of negative pressure systems (wound drains, VAC(®)-therapy, chest tube drainage) had typically led to severe intracranial hypotension including intracranial hemorrhage and tonsillar herniation. In the last year the authors observed 2 cases of accidental spinal drainage of CSF in patients with neurological deficits, regressing after reduction of the device suction.

Purpose: CT angiography (CTA) is a noninvasive technique for evaluating intracranial arterial stenoses and for following up on intracranial stents. We analyzed a series of patients to assess the capabilities of CTA with respect to preinterventional und postinterventional diagnostic imaging for stent-assisted intracranial angioplasty.
Materials And Methods: We examined 8 patients with 9 symptomatic intracranial arterial stenoses before and after stent placement with CTA.
