The benefits of preoperative embolization have been known and reported on since the 1970s. With embolization of hypervascular tumors, surgical morbidity can be reduced with decreasing blood loss, thereby shortening operating time, and the chances for complete resection are increased. Superselective catheterization of feeding vessels close to a tumor of the CNS and head and neck is possible, resulting in more effective embolization. Endovascular management with embolization is now standard preoperative procedure. This article discusses the processes of neuroendovascular management of hypervascular intracranial and spinal tumors.
