Literature review

The references used for this review were identified by searching PubMed for related studies published from 1955 to June 2016. The search terms “intracranial stenosis” and “intracranial atherosclerosis” were used, which yielded 5578 and 11350 articles respectively. English articles were reviewed. Abstracts were read by one author (CB) and relevant studies were screened in. Reference sections of published randomized clinical trials (304 articles) and previously published reviews (635 articles) were searched for additional references. The other author (MIC) added relevant additional references after review.
