Long-term Outcome of Angioplasty Using a Wingspan Stent, Post-Stent Balloon Dilation and Aggressive Restenosis Management for Intracranial Arterial Stenosis
ConclusionThe postprocedural stroke rate was similar to that observed in the SAMMPRIS study. Symptomatic restenosis may be reduced by poststent dilation, close angiographic follow-up, and retreatment.

Endovascular vs. medical therapy in symptomatic vertebral artery stenosis: a meta-analysis
AbstractThis meta-analysis aims to compare percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) to medical treatment (MT) for symptomatic vertebral artery stenosis (SVAS) treatment. We searched PubMed, Springer, Google Scholar, Clinical Trials, Cochrane Central, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, and China Biological Medicine databases. All relevant comparative trials were included. All summary estimates were calculated by random-effect models. Ten comparative trials involving 672 patients were identified. Within 30-day follow-up, there was no significant difference between PTA plus MT and MT alone in vascular death, any st...

Predictors for Mortality after Mechanical Thrombectomy of Acute Basilar Artery Occlusion
Conclusions: Failure of successful recanalization was a strong predictor for mortality. In the setting of recanalization, age, admission NIHSS, pc-ASPECTS, absence of intravenous thrombolysis, and angioplasty/stenting of the basilar artery were also independent predictors for mortality after MET of BAO patients.Cerebrovasc Dis 2018;45:61 –67

Thirty-Day and One-Year Outcomes of Endovascular Treatments for Severe Atherosclerotic Stenosis of Intracranial ICA: Results From a Single Center
Conclusions: Both the 30-day and 1-year outcomes of tailored endovascular treatments seemed to be acceptable in the treatment of symptomatic atherosclerotic stenosis of the intracranial ICA. However, this needs to be confirmed by further investigation, preferably in large multicenter randomized controlled clinical trials.

Outcomes After Carotid Artery Stenting in Medicare Beneficiaries, 2005 to 2009
Conclusions and RelevanceCompeting risks may limit the benefits of CAS in certain Medicare beneficiaries, particularly among older and symptomatic patients who have higher periprocedural and long-term mortality risks. The generalizability of trials like the SAPPHIRE or CREST to the Medicare population may be limited, underscoring the need to evaluate real-world effectiveness of carotid stenosis treatments.

Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting for symptomatic intracranial arterial stenosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Conclusions:
PTAS is associated with adverse early and long-term outcomes and should not be recommended in patients with sICAS. Further research to identify subgroups of patients who could also serve as candidates for future interventional trials along with efforts to reduce procedure-related complications are needed.

Carotid Revascularization with and without the Use of an Embolic Protection Device: A Single-Center Experience from Pakistan
Conclusion: Based on our single-center experience and findings of a relatively small sample size, carotid revascularization with stenting and angioplasty without EPD in experienced hands was found to be safe and efficacious. In addition, it proves cost-effective for patients by limiting the use of unnecessary disposables. These results are comparable to those reported in major trials and are well within the complication thresholds suggested in current guidelines. These results also show promise and illustrate the need for a larger, randomized controlled trial in order to thoroughly address this aspect of carotid revascular...

Endovascular Reperfusion for Acute Isolated Cervical Carotid Occlusions: The Concept of “Hemodynamic Thrombectomy”
Conclusions: The endovascular recanalization of isolated cervical carotid occlusions presenting with acute ischemic stroke symptoms is feasible. Because isolated cervical carotid occlusions are associated with hemodynamic ischemic symptoms, if carotid recanalization cannot be achieved, stenting other cervical arteries ’ stenoses, with a focus on intracranial flow improvement, appears to be a reasonable strategy. Large controlled studies are necessary to assess the safety and efficacy of recanalization of acute isolated cervical carotid occlusions.Intervent Neurol 2019;8:27 –37

Is There Benefit from Stenting on Cognitive Function in Intracranial Atherosclerosis
Background: Revascularization of stenotic cerebral arteries is hypothesized to improve cognition by increasing cerebral perfusion.Aims: We compared cognition impairment among patients treated with percutaneous angioplasty and stenting (PTAS) and aggressive medical management (AMM) versus AMM alone in the Stenting versus Aggressive Medical Therapy for Intracranial Arterial Stenosis (SAMMPRIS) Trial.Methods: In SAMMPRIS, 451 patients with recent transient ischemic attack or stroke attributed to 70-99% intracranial stenosis were randomized to PTAS plus AMM or AMM alone. Patients who had stroke as the qualifying event with Nat...

A Retrospective Study Comparison Between Stenting and Standardized Medical Treatment for Intracranial Vertebrobasilar Stenosis in a Real-World Chinese Cohort
Conclusions: In a real-world Chinese cohort, PTAS for patients might be superior to SMT, and provide better long-term neurological function recovery and lower disability rate.

Treatment of the Carotid In-stent Restenosis: A Systematic Review
Conclusions: rCAS is the most common treatment for ISR, with low postoperative risk and low long-term risk. CEA is an important alternative for rCAS. PTA may be less recommended due to the relatively high long-term risks of stroke & TIA and recurrent restenosis.

Treatment Trends In Management Of Intracranial Stenosis In The Pre- And Post-Sammpris Era (P1.146)
DISCUSSION: SAMMPRIS had a major impact on treatment trends of physicians managing patients with intracranial stenosis. In the Post-SAMMPRIS survey, 91% of respondents participating in SAMMPRIS and 82% of overall respondents indicated that the SAMMPRIS results changed the way they managed patients with ICAS.As aggressive medical management coupled with optimal risk factor reduction shows promise in reducing rates of recurrent stroke, a novel endovascular therapy will have to seek newer heights of increasing RRR to gain acceptance by practitioners.Disclosure: Dr. Pawar has nothing to disclose.
