Abstract
Neuromodulation and deep brain stimulation (DBS) have been increasingly used in many neurological ailments, including essential tremor, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, and more. Yet for many patients and practitioners the desire to utilize these therapies is met with caution, given the need for craniotomy, lead insertion through brain parenchyma, and, at many times, bilateral invasive procedures. Currently endovascular therapy is a standard of care for emergency thrombectomy, aneurysm treatment, and other vascular malformation/occlusive disease of the cerebrum. Endovascular techniques and delivery catheters have advanced greatly in both their ability to safely reach remote brain locations and deliver devices. In this review the authors discuss minimally invasive endovascular delivery of devices and neural stimulating and recording from cortical and DBS targets via the neurovascular network.
