FAIRFAX, Va., Feb. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Society of Neurolnterventional Surgery (SNIS) is acknowledging middle meningeal artery embolization (MMAE) as a beneficial adjunctive treatment for chronic subdural hematoma in light of new research.

  • Chronic subdural hematoma is an exceedingly common problem, and these findings will be relevant to a large population of patients.
