title: Interventional neuroradiology: a joint effort of the neuroradiologist and neurosurgeon in the treatment of vascular lesions of the head and neck.
abstract: Close cooperation between the neuroradiologist and neurosurgeon has made possible the treatment of certain lesions of the head and neck by embolization procedures. The experience at Emory University Hospital with embolizations of arteriovenous malformations, carotid-cavernous fistulae, dural-cavernous sinus fistulae and glomus jugulare tumors is discussed.
