Dual antiplatelet use in the management of COVID-19 associated acute ischemic stroke reocclusion
CONCLUSION: COVID-19 AIS may be associated with a hypercoagulable state which risks malignant reocclusion complicating MT. We found antithrombotic treatment periprocedural cangrelor with or without argatroban transitioned to oral aspirin with ticagrelor to be a viable method for management of these patients.PMID:35549746 | DOI:10.1177/15910199221097484

Endovascular mechanical thrombectomy in a child with COVID-19: Clot analysis reveals a novel pathway in the neuroinflammatory cascade resulting in large-vessel occlusion
Interv Neuroradiol. 2022 Apr 21:15910199221094758. doi: 10.1177/15910199221094758. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLarge-vessel occlusion is rare in children, but its results can be devastating and may lead to recurrent strokes, persistent neurological deficits, and decreased quality of life. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) has yielded extrapulmonary effects and multiorgan diseases, many of which are neurological manifestations. There is a paucity of literature in pediatric patients about large-vessel occlusion in the setting of COVID-19 infection. We discuss a nine-year-old child who presented w...
