摘要

Abstract Method for treatment of neurogenic diabetes mellitus and other conditions A method for relieving pressure from a preselected region of the brainstem within the cranium of a subject, the subject having a disorder of the normal neuroendocrine servomechanism, the pressure resulting from the compression of the region by a blood vessel, the method comprising the steps of: a. gaining access to the preselected region using a first preselected surgical technique; b. exposing the preselected region according to a second preselected surgical technique; c. lifting the blood vessel from at least a portion of the region according to a third preselected surgical technique, thereby providing the pressure relief, the neuroendocrine servomechanism being responsive to the pressure relief on the region; and d. inserting a neurovascular bridge implant between the blood vessel and the preselected region, the implant maintaining the pressure relief.
