Objective To undertake animal experimentation and clinical study on the safety and efficacy of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) and intraarterial papaverine (IAP) infusion for treatment of refractory symptomatic cerebral vasospasm (CVS). Methods In the experimental study, vasospasm was induced in rabbits by double injections of blood into the cisterna magna, IAP infusion was given on either the 4th day or the 7th day after occurrence of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), and then neurological observation, angiography, light and electron microscopy were done. In the clinical study, since September 1996, 22 patients with refractory symptomatic CVS involving 50 vascular territories received dilation therapy by PTA and IAP within 24 hours of clinical neurological deterioration. Results In the experimental study, all the rabbits except two in the ’ the 4th day’ group showed angiographic dilation in all of the spastic basilar arteries, and neurological improvement; in the ’the 7th day’ group angiographi
