P015/131 A hard nut to crack: Treatment of a calcified re-stenosis by in-stent intravascular lithotripsy and ballon-angioplasty
DiscussionIVL uses focused ultrasound impulses to fracture calcified plaques and may expand the spectrum of therapeutic options for patients with calcified plaque and contraindication to surgery. Reported adverse events include adverse events known from angioplasty without IVL.In this case surgery was not recommended and balloon angioplasty with repeat stenting had failed. Furthermore, treatment must target a calcified lesion. Thus, IVL has successfully been carried out as bail out from a double bind situation.Abstract P015/131 Figure 1Tapering of the stent with cuff of calcificationAbstract P015/131 Figure 2a and b: digit...

P025/234 Intracerebral hemorrhage as a manifestation of cerebral reperfusion syndrome after carotid artery stenting
ConclusionICH usually occurs a few hours after CAS and often leads to catastrophic results. Close monitoring of the patients with CAS for subocclusion of ICA should be performed with prolonged blood pressure monitoring for next 24 hours after procedure.Disclosure of InterestNothing to disclose (Source: Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery)

P114/135 Drug-coated balloons for treatment of in-stent restenosis following carotid artery stenting: a major case, single center study
ConclusionIn our practice, DCB offers a straightforward option to treat restenosis of the ACI ostium. The low rate of periprocedural complications and the median time of freedom from symptoms and/or restenosis suggest that DCB angioplasty for ISRS is a viable treatment.Disclosure of InterestNothing to disclose (Source: Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery)

Retained radial catheters associated with variant radial anatomy in neurointerventional procedures
Conclusion Retained catheters for neurointerventional procedures performed via TRA are rare. However, this complication may be associated with variant radial anatomy. With the increased use of TRA for neurointerventional procedures, awareness of anatomical abnormalities that may lead to a retained catheter is necessary. We propose a simple protocol to avoid catheter entrapment, including in emergent situations such as TRA for stroke thrombectomy. (Source: Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery)

Oxidized Low-density Lipoproteins and Lipopolysaccharides Augment Carotid Artery Plaque Vulnerability in Hypercholesterolemic Microswine
This study aims to compare the potency of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and oxidized low-density lipoproteins (oxLDL) to induce plaque formation and increase plaque vulnerability in the carotid artery of hypercholesterolemic Yucatan microswine. Atherosclerotic lesions at the common carotid artery junction and ascending pharyngeal artery were induced in hypercholesterolemic Yucatan microswine at 5-6 months of age with balloon angioplasty. LPS or oxLDL were administered intraluminally at the site of injury after occluding the arterial flow temporarily. Pre-intervention ultrasound (US), angiography, and optical coherence tomograph...

Comparative analysis of stenting for carotid web and atherosclerotic disease
CONCLUSION: Stenting for CaW was found to be technically simpler than CAD and not to confer increased risk of baroreceptor dysregulation. Intimal hyperplasia was uncommon in CaW cases.PMID:37563917 | DOI:10.1177/15910199231188856 (Source: Atherosclerosis)
