Procedure

Intracranial Angioplasty and Stenting

Intracranial Angioplasty and Stenting in Narsingi is a cutting-edge minimally invasive procedure that opens blocked brain arteries using balloon catheters and mesh stents. This endovascular treatment effectively restores cerebral blood flow and significantly reduces stroke risk in patients with symptomatic intracranial stenosis. Dr. Priyanka Sangani at Blue Ray Neuro Care provides expert neurological care using advanced imaging and catheter-based techniques.

Procedure

How intracranial angioplasty and stenting works.

A step-by-step look at what happens during this procedure.

1

Catheter Insertion

A thin catheter is inserted through a small groin incision and guided to the blocked brain artery using advanced imaging

2

Balloon Inflation

A tiny balloon on the catheter tip is inflated at the narrowed site to compress plaque and widen the artery

3

Stent Placement

A small mesh tube (stent) is deployed to keep the artery open and prevent re-narrowing

4

Flow Verification

X-ray imaging confirms restored blood flow and proper stent positioning

5

Catheter Removal

The catheter is carefully removed and the groin puncture site is sealed

What happens if intracranial angioplasty and stenting is delayed?

  • Untreated severe intracranial stenosis carries an 8-22% annual stroke risk despite medical therapy. Without intervention, patients face progressive narrowing, recurrent TIAs, and potentially devastating strokes. Early treatment significantly reduces these risks and prevents irreversible brain damage.
