Endovascular Treatment for Chronic Cerebrospinal Venous Insufficiency (CCSVI)

Endovascular Correction of Chronic Cerebrospinal Venous Insufficiency (CCSVI) and Evaluation of Influence of These Treatments on the Symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis

The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of endovascular treatment (balloon angioplasty and/or stenting) for the improvement of clinical symptoms in multiple sclerosis patients.

The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of endovascular treatment (balloon angioplasty and/or stenting) for the improvement of clinical symptoms in multiple sclerosis patients measured by Extended Disability Severity Score (EDSS), Multiple Sclerosis Impact Scale-29 (MSIS-29), Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS) and heat intolerance

Inclusion Criteria:

• patients with clinically defined multiple sclerosis

Exclusion Criteria:

• contraindication for endovascular procedure performed in local anesthesia
