Contemporary Trends in Stroke Complicating Cardiac Catheterisation
Background: Stroke remains an important complication of diagnostic cardiac catheterization and percutaneous coronary intervention and is associated with high rates of in-hospital mortality.

Comorbidities and Ventricular Dysfunction Drive Excess Mid-Term Morbidity in an Indigenous Australian Coronary Revascularisation Cohort
There is a paucity of data in regards to longer term morbidity outcomes in Indigenous Australian patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). No comparative data on re-infarction, stroke or reintervention rates exist. Outcome data following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is also extremely limited. Addressing this gap in knowledge forms the major aim of our study.

Successful Hybrid Coronary Artery Revascularisation in a Patient with Severe Cerebrovascular Disease - a New Treatment Option to Minimise the Risk of Stroke
Coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) is the treatment of choice for patients with severe unprotected left main disease. CABG does however expose patients to a higher risk of cerebrovascular accidents when compared to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Decreased Stroke When Avoiding Aortic Manipulation – An Updated Meta-Analysis
Introduction: Neurological injury is a devastating complication of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and is its ‘Achilles Heel’ when compared to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The mechanisms of stroke after CABG are multifactorial but includes embolisation of calcified atherosclerotic plaque from the ascending aorta.

Anaortic, total-arterial, off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery: Why bother?
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) remains the standard of care for multi-vessel coronary disease. However, the increased rate of peri-operative stroke reported after surgery compared to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remains of concern. Anaortic, total-arterial, off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) grafting is a technique that offers the main advantages of surgical revascularisation with a rate of stroke that is equivalent to that of PCI. Some recent trials comparing conventional on-pump CABG with OPCAB have questioned the efficacy of the off-pump technique – these are most often performed with manipula...
