Best Practices for Venous Sinus Stenting. Are we over-treating or under-treating patients?

To update my comment, I’ve since seen the ophthalmologist and interventional radiologist for follow up and thankfully, there’s no signs of stent blockage and the areas of stenosis aren’t hampering the improvement of the optic nerves. The radiologist surmised that the pressure-like symptoms are being caused by an aggravated occipital nerve due to the stent expansion. I was familiar with what he was talking about because I had just days before watched this video and heard Dr. Patsalides speak on the subject in regards to the trigeminal nerve. An occipital nerve block is going to be tried in the near future to alleviate symptoms. Thanks again to IIH Hub for offering this educational info. I told both my ophthalmologist and interventional radiologist about the channel-they would be wonderful additions to your lineup! (Mayo Clinic)
