Surgical Management of Uncommon Neurovascular Syndromes: The Vascular Oddballs
7th March, 2026, 07:30 - 08:30
Town & Country Ballroom AB
This session will explore rare neurovascular syndromes that present with dynamic or structural vascular compression, such as Bow Hunter`s and Eagle Syndrome, with a focus on their clinical manifestations, diagnostic challenges, and surgical management. Attendees will gain a practical framework for recognizing these underdiagnosed conditions and understanding when surgical intervention is appropriate. The session is ideal for neurosurgeons, neurointerventionalists, spine surgeons, neurologists, and advanced trainees interested in cerebrovascular and cranial base pathologies.
Objectives
At the conclusion of this session, attendees will be able to:
- Identify uncommon neurovascular syndromes that present with dynamic vascular compression or entrapment, including their clinical features and imaging findings.
- Differentiate these syndromes from more common neurological or vascular disorders through targeted history, physical examination, and diagnostic workup.
- Evaluate and select appropriate surgical or interventional treatment strategies based on anatomical considerations and symptomatology.
