Multivariable Analysis of Pre-operative Brain Atrophy as a Predictor of Long Term Mortality After Carotid Endarterectomy
Brain atrophy is associated with an increased mortality rate in elderly trauma patients and in patients treated with mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischaemic stroke. In the setting of ischaemic stroke, the association between brain atrophy and death is stronger than that of sarcopenia. It has previously been shown that lower masseter area, as a marker of sarcopenia, is linked to lower survival after carotid endarterectomy (CEA). The aim of this study was to investigate whether brain atrophy is also associated with long term mortality in patients undergoing CEA.

Modifiable risk factors for occurrence of ipsilateral ischemic events after carotid endarterectomy beyond perioperative period
The purpose of this study was to quantify the effects of several modifiable variables on the occurrence of stroke after the initial perioperative period for patients who had undergone carotid endarterectomy (CEA).

The Marsden Morbidity Index: the derivation and validation of a simple risk index scoring system using cardiopulmonary exercise testing variables to predict morbidity in high-risk patients having major cancer surgery
ConclusionOur study showed that of the CPET variables, AT, VO2 max, and AT VE/VCO2 were shown to be associated with postoperative surgical morbidity following major abdominal oncological surgery. When combined with a number of preoperative comorbidities commonly associated with increased risk of postoperative morbidity, we created a useful institutional scoring system for predicting which patients will experience adverse events. However, this system needs further validation in other centres performing oncological surgery.

Treatment Of An Extracranial Carotid Artery Aneurysm With Flow Diverter Stents And Coil Embolization
Extracranial carotid artery aneurysms (ECAAs) are uncommon. Although the true incidence and natural history of ECAAs are largely unknown, case series report a high risk of transient ischemic attack, stroke, or rupture if left untreated. Open surgical repair and endovascular therapy are both reasonable options depending on the size and location of the aneurysm.

Simultaneous acute cardio-cerebral infarction associated with isolated left ventricle non-compaction cardiomyopathy
CONCLUSION: To the best of the author's knowledge, this is the first reported case of cardiocerebral infraction (CCI) in the setting of non-compaction left ventricle. Early and precise diagnosis is critical to the successful management of these conditions.PMID:36045823 | PMC:PMC9422203 | DOI:10.1016/j.amsu.2022.104172

Risk of bleeding complications per different perioperative antithrombotic regimes during carotid endarterectomy: a national registry analysis
CONCLUSION: The effectiveness and safety of DAPT did not differ from single antiplatelet therapy (SAPT) in patients undergoing CEA and needs further evaluation in prospective studies. Considering additional data from the literature and guideline recommendations DAPT should be started immediately after stroke until 30 days after CEA followed by SAPT, due to possible reduction in the risk of recurrency.PMID:36031046 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejvs.2022.08.020

Risk of Bleeding Complications With Different Peri-Operative Antithrombotic Regimens During Carotid Endarterectomy: a National Registry Analysis
Antithrombotic therapy is one of the cornerstones of the prevention of (recurrent) ocular or cerebral ischaemic events in patients with carotid artery stenosis. Randomised controlled trials on antithrombotic therapy for patients with minor ischaemic stroke and transient ischaemic attack (TIA) have recommended dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in the three weeks following the index event. However, these trials excluded patients undergoing carotid revascularisation. To date, the optimal antithrombotic therapy during the peri-operative period of carotid endarterectomy (CEA) remains unclear.

Outcomes of upper access with surgical exposure of the axillary artery in fenestrated and branched endovascular aneurysm repair

TEVAR with Supra-Aortic Trunk Revascularization is Associated with Increased Risk of Periprocedural Ischemic Stroke
Ischemic stroke is a devastating complication of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). This risk may be higher in more proximal aneurysms that require arch manipulation. The purpose of this study was to (1) describe 30-day stroke and death rates in patients undergoing TEVAR, (2) compare stroke rates in patients undergoing TEVAR for arch versus descending aneurysm pathology, and (3) identify predictive factors associated with stroke after TEVAR.
