Stellate ganglion block combined with intra-arterial treatment: a “one-stop shop” for cerebral vasospasm after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage—a pilot study

ConclusionAdjuvant SGB may be coupled to endovascular therapy to treat refractory cerebral vasopasm within the same session. To guide needle placement, using a roadmap of the supra-aortic arteries may decrease the risk of complications. More prospective data is needed to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy, durability, and safety of SGB compared with the established standard of care.
