    Following brief introductions by Dorothy Poppe and Dr. Fraser C. Henderson at the Chiari & Syringomyelia Foundation, Dr. Kenneth Liu, neurovascular surgeon at Penn State, describes his unique approach to treating idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH).
    Also called pseudotumor cerebri, Dr. Liu treats IIH using a method called intracranial venous stenting. Having shown some real success in some of his cases, Dr. Liu describes how and why stenting might work and for which patients.

    I love that you mentioned the actual composition of the brains of people with connective tissue disorders. You claim that you're "not intelligent" ... I disagree... Lol... You bring up SEVERAL things I think about.
    Thank you for your video.

    23:20 says who cares? Then proceeds to talk about how rare this it is an astronauts tent to return from space with it. Well I'm currently laying supine from my brain angiogram. Waiting for Doc to discuss the next step since my angiogram showed veinous stenosis 😖 My daughter cares an if this veinous stenting becomes a successful available option for me my 12 year old daughter will get her mom back.

      Jenn Gonzales you are taking this out of context. I wouldn’t want your review to discourage others from watching this extremely helpful, dedicated doctor.
