Technical note on endovascular treatment of concomitant carotid occlusion in large vessel occlusion stroke: The "single-cross" technique.
CONCLUSIONS: The single-cross technique appears to be a safe and effective option for treating tandem occlusive lesions in the setting of ELVO. PMID: 31311374 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Direct angioplasty for acute ischemic stroke due to intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis-related large vessel occlusion.
CONCLUSION: Direct angioplasty may represent an alternative treatment strategy in patients with acute ischemic stroke due to known ICAS-related LVO. PMID: 32777960 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Transcarotid artery revascularization (TCAR) stenting or angioplasty for intracranial carotid artery stenosis: Case series and novel application
CONCLUSIONS: This highlights a new method for treating intracranial ICA stenosis with a potentially reduced stroke risk. Given the historically higher stroke rates for cervical ICA stenting compared to carotid artery endarterectomy, this method may improve the previously higher stroke rates in endovascular carotid artery treatment, compared to CEA. Although this series is small, it illustrates a novel use for a rising technique that should be further evaluated in a larger study to validate its efficacy as a new treatment modality for surgically inaccessible intracranial disease.PMID:35331034 | DOI:10.1177/15910199221090724

Outcomes of early carotid stenting and angioplasty in large-vessel anterior circulation strokes treated with mechanical thrombectomy and intravenous thrombolytics.
Conclusions If indicated, it is reasonable to consider concurrent carotid stenting and/or angioplasty for large-vessel anterior circulation stroke patients treated with mechanical thrombectomy who also receive intravenous thrombolytics. PMID: 29697301 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Hyperacute stenting and angioplasty for acute extracranial non-tandem internal carotid artery strokes within the first 48  h: A 20-year experience and a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: Stenting and angioplasty for acute cervical ICA occlusive strokes during the hyperacute phase can be performed successfully with favorable clinical outcomes and an acceptable recanalization rate.PMID:37218164 | DOI:10.1177/15910199231164510

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

Severe cerebral vasospasm in chronic cocaine users during neurointerventional procedures: A report of two cases.
We report the case of two patients with a history of cocaine abuse, who developed unusual severe vasospasms during different interventional procedures. The first case occurred in a middle-aged woman with an unruptured left internal carotid artery bifurcation aneurysm who was scheduled for treatment by remodelling assisted coiling. Just after the placement of the remodelling balloon, a severe occlusive vasospasm interrupted the procedure. The second case happened to a 46-year-old man with a non-aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage and a symptomatic vasospasm in the right-sided anterior circulation who developed another occlu...
