Review of cerebral arteriograms of all our patients [19] with epidural hematoma over a 2 year period revealed evidence of localized extrinsic compression of the cerebral cortex in all cases. This finding, although not as specific as those previously described for epidural hematoma, was strongly sugg

A method of combined direct embolization of submillimetric cortical arteries, after preoperative arteriography, is described and 3 cases of cerebral angiomas presented with striking symptomatic improvement after embolization. Postoperative angiography in one case showed considerable diminution in the size of the angioma.
