Ischemic stroke after pellet embolization
A 9-year-old boy was shot with a pellet shotgun and developed a visual field deficit. Head CT revealed a pellet in the left ambien cistern, in the left posterior cerebral artery on catheter angiography (figure). Chest fluoroscopy revealed multiple thoracic pellets, including a mobile cardiac pellet (video on the Neurology® Web site at Neurology.org). There was no clear cardiac injury, patent foramen ovale, or skull penetration. Arterial embolization of a pellet from the chest to the intracranial vasculature likely caused a stroke.1,2 We considered arteriotomy, endovascular retrieval, and medical therapy. The establishe...

Fluid-Attenuated Inversion Recovery Vascular Hyperintensities-Diffusion-Weighted Imaging Mismatch Identifies Acute Stroke Patients Most Likely to Benefit From Recanalization Clinical Sciences
Conclusion— The FVH-DWI mismatch may rapidly identify patients with proximal occlusion most likely to benefit from recanalization.

Thrombus Length Estimation on Delayed Gadolinium-Enhanced T1 Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— The dGE-T1, obtained by simply adjusting scanning order in multimodal magnetic resonance imaging protocol, is a useful tool for thrombus length estimation and middle cerebral artery recanalization prediction after IVT.

Silent Brain Infarction in Patients With Asymptomatic Carotid Artery Atherosclerotic Disease Brief Reports
Conclusions— Patients with asymptomatic ICA disease demonstrate a higher prevalence of SBI downstream from their ICA atherosclerotic disease compared with the contralateral side but only of the cortical and not lacunar SBI subtype.

Angiographic Correlates of Cerebral Hemodynamic Changes With Diamox Challenge Assessed by Quantitative Magnetic Resonance Angiography Brief Reports
Conclusions— We show that patients with more robust LMC have better MCA QMRAd. Therefore, QMRAd may be used for the functional assessment of LMC as a surrogate for cerebrovascular reserve in chronic internal carotid artery or MCA steno-occlusive disease.

Patient selection for stroke thrombectomy: Is CT head good enough?
Six randomized controlled trials have established the substantial benefit of mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke patients presenting with large vessel occlusive disease.1–6 Enrolling patients with large clinical deficit in the setting of small completed infarct and rapid, complete, or near complete recanalization, and treatment with the most recent generation of thrombectomy devices, contributed to this success. Efforts to generalize the results of these trials beyond select, experienced centers have focused attention on workflow and developing consensus on patient selection. Optimizing outcomes require...

Vascular Tortuosity May Be Associated With Cervical Artery Dissection Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— CerAD is associated with tortuous cervical arteries, which may implicate weakened cervical vascular structure in these patients.

Utility of Repeat Cerebrovascular Imaging among Hospitalized Stroke Patients
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the frequency and clinical utility of repeat cerebrovascular imaging with computed tomography angiography (CTA) of the head after contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography (CE-MRA) of the head in acute stroke patients.

Absent Filling of Ipsilateral Superficial Middle Cerebral Vein Is Associated With Poor Outcome After Reperfusion Therapy Clinical Sciences
Conclusions—Lack of SMCV filling contributed to poor outcome after thrombolysis, especially when reperfusion was not achieved. The main deleterious effect of poor venous filling appears related to the development of brain edema.

Impact of hyperglycemia according to collateral status on reperfusion and outcomes in acute ischemic stroke after mechanical thrombectomy (S8.001)
Conclusions:The deleterious effect of hyperglycemia on functional outcome after endovascular thrombectomy is modified by collateral status at presentation. Higher glucose levels reduce likelihood of good outcome among patients with good collaterals, but do not affect outcome among patients with poor collaterals.Disclosure: Dr. Kim has nothing to disclose.
