title: [Super-selective cerebral angiography. II. Use and first results in man (author's transl)].
abstract: The use and first results of a super-selective cerebral angiographic technique in five patients as previously described and using a simple telescopic catheter principle are reported. Two patients were examined in order to determine onset of death and three who had been in a coma for several weeks following severe cerebral trauma. In one patient the examination was unsuccessful because of difficulties with the puncture. In one patient in whom death was to be determined, no filling of the intracranial arteries against cerebrovascular resistance was possible, although the catheter tip was placed in the carotid syphon. In three patients, super-selective filling of the anterior cerebral arteries proved possible. Compared with routine carotid angiography, more detailed information could be obtained and there was no overlap between individual arteries. There were no untoward effects from this catheter procedure.
