Thrombolytic Outcomes for Acute Ischemic Stroke in Patients with Primary Brain Tumors in the United States (P4.220)
Conclusions: Thrombolytic therapy is an independent predictor of ICH in patients with primary brain tumors. Thrombolysis outcomes are less favorable in malignant brain tumors compared to benign tumors.Disclosure: Dr. Murthy has nothing to disclose. Dr. Moradiya has nothing to disclose.

Recurrent Stroke Due to Metastatic Pulmonary Tumor Emboli as an Important Clinical Entity
We present an autopsy case of repetitive stroke due to tumor emboli, indistinguishable from thromboembolism with a hypercoagulable state in its clinical course. A 72-year-old man diagnosed with stage IVA oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma received chemoradiotherapy. Follow-up imaging revealed mediastinal lymph nodes and pulmonary metastasis. One year later, the patient experienced right arm weakness, and brain magnetic resonance imaging showed acute ischemic lesions in multiple vascular territories.

Platelet Count Predicts Adverse Clinical Outcomes After Ischemic Stroke or TIA: Subgroup Analysis of CNSR II
Conclusion: In ischemic stroke or TIA patients with platelet count within normal range, platelet count may be a qualified predictor for long-term recurrent stroke, mortality, and poor functional outcome. Introduction Platelets exert a critical role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerotic complications of cardio-cerebrovascular disease, contributing to thrombus formation, and embolism (1, 2). Previous literature reported that platelets of various size and density are produced by megakaryocytes of different size and stages of maturation in different clinical conditions, suggesting various platelet patterns in differen...

Stroke risk 'higher at start of warfarin treatment'
Conclusion This study has found that warfarin was associated with an increased risk of ischaemic stroke during the first 30 days of treatment. After 30 days of treatment, warfarin was associated with a decreased risk of stroke. However, this study has a number of limitations that should be considered: All information was from patient records, which means that it wasn't subject to recall bias, but the information may not be complete – we do not know if, for example, people took the medication they were prescribed. There may be other factors (confounders) that explain the association seen. In particular, the ba...

A Case of Multiple Recurrent Ischemic Stroke in a Patient with Cholangiocarcinoma and Initiation of Anticoagulation Therapy for Secondary Stroke Prevention (P4.342)
CONCLUSIONS: Initiation of anticoagulation therapy and the optimal medications for secondary stroke prevention in cancer associated stroke remain controversial. Further randomized prospective studies are needed to establish treatment guidelines.Disclosure: Dr. Cheng has nothing to disclose. Dr. Then has nothing to disclose.

proMetalloproteinase-10 is associated with brain damage and clinical outcome in acute ischemic stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: Increased serum proMMP-10 after acute ischemic stroke, associated with TNFα, is a new marker of brain damage and poor outcome. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved. PMID: 23742289 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Absence of susceptibility vessel sign and hyperdense vessel sign in patients with cancer-related stroke
ConclusionThe absence of SVS but not HVS could help to identify paraneoplastic hypercoagulability in stroke patients with active cancer and guide patient care.

Endothelial Cell-Derived von Willebrand Factor Is the Major Determinant That Mediates von Willebrand Factor-Dependent Acute Ischemic Stroke by Promoting Postischemic Thrombo-Inflammation.
CONCLUSIONS: Plt-VWF, either in presence or absence of ADAMTS13, partially contributes to VWF-dependent injury and postischemic thrombo-inflammation after stroke. EC-VWF is the major determinant that mediates VWF-dependent ischemic stroke by promoting postischemic thrombo-inflammation. PMID: 27444201 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Risk factors and predictors for venous thromboembolism in people with ischemic stroke: A systematic review
In conclusion, this systematic review informs on several potential risk factors and predictors for VTE in people with ischemic stroke. To improve risk stratification and guide development of risk prediction models, further confirmation is needed, as there were few high-quality studies on each factor.PMID:35815351 | DOI:10.1111/jth.15813

A Case of Perioperative Stroke Caused by Tumour Embolus. (P6.244)
CONCLUSIONS: Tumour embolism has previously been described with primary and secondary lung neoplasms, as well as cardiac tumours. Although rare, this should be considered as a potential cause of perioperative stroke in patients after cancer surgery.Study Supported by: Non-applicable.Disclosure: Dr. Hughes has nothing to disclose.

Safety of intravenous thrombolysis for acute ischaemic stroke including concomitant neoplastic disease sufferers – experience from Poland
ConclusionIntravenous thrombolysis performed in Caucasian stroke patients with past or current neoplastic diseases, but not in the course of chemo‐ and radiotherapy, can be a safe and effective method of treatment. In making decision on the thrombolytic treatment, the risk of bleeding complications and the life expectancy should be assessed.

In-hospital outcomes of thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke in patients with primary brain tumors
Publication date: March 2015 Source:Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, Volume 22, Issue 3 Author(s): Santosh B. Murthy , Yogesh Moradiya , Shreyansh Shah , Aditi Shastri , Eric M. Bershad , Jose I. Suarez Data on thrombolysis outcomes in patients with primary brain tumors are limited. Our aim was to study stroke outcomes following thrombolysis in these patients in a population-based study. Patients with acute ischemic stroke who received thrombolysis were identified from the 2002–2011 USA Nationwide Inpatient Sample. We compared demographics, comorbidities, and outcomes between primary brain tumor-associated strokes (BT...
