Groin complications in endovascular mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke: a 10-year single center experience
Conclusions These findings suggest that concerns for groin complications should not preclude the use of BGCs and large-bore sheaths in mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke.

Old benefit as much as young patients with stroke from high-intensity neurorehabilitation: cohort analysis
Conclusions Old and even very old patients with stroke benefit from specialised inpatient neurorehabilitation and high amounts of therapy in the same degree as younger patients. Contrary to current clinical practice, old age should not be a criterion against admission to a neurorehabilitation unit following acute stroke treatment.

O-035 The Dotter Technique Revisited: Early Experience using this Technique for Treating Tandem Lesions in Acute Stroke
Conclusion The Dotter Stroke technique is a safe alternative to carotid stenting, and may be useful in patients at increased risk for haemorrhage. In this small series, a post-Dotter stenosis >75% is associated with re-occlusion, and stenting should be performed to prevent re-occlusion. No re-occlusion was identified at 30 days with post-Dotter stenosis <= 65%. Disclosures B. Woodward: None. E. Nyberg: None. S. Wegryn: None.

Stem cell transplantation enhances endogenous brain repair after experimental stroke.
Authors: Horie N, Hiu T, Nagata I Abstract Stem cell transplantation for stroke treatment has been a promising therapy in small and large animal models, and many clinical trials are ongoing to establish this strategy in a clinical setting. However, the mechanism underlying functional recovery after stem cell transplantation has not been fully established and there is still a need to determine the ideal subset of stem cells for such therapy. We herein reviewed the recent evidences showing the underlying mechanism of functional recovery after cell transplantation, focusing on endogenous brain repair. First, angiogene...

Endovascular reconstruction for progressively worsening carotid artery dissection
Conclusions Endovascular stent reconstruction for the treatment of selected patients with progressively worsening carotid dissection despite medical management is feasible with acceptable immediate and long-term clinical and radiographic outcomes. To be able to draw more robust conclusions, further evaluation with larger number of patients and longer follow-up is needed.

Recent Progress in Endothelial Progenitor Cell Culture Systems: Potential for Stroke Therapy.
Authors: Takizawa S, Nagata E, Nakayama T, Masuda H, Asahara T Abstract Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) participate in endothelial repair and angiogenesis due to their abilities to differentiate into endothelial cells and to secrete protective cytokines and growth factors. Consequently, there is considerable interest in cell therapy with EPCs isolated from peripheral blood to treat various ischemic injuries. Quality and quantity-controlled culture systems to obtain mononuclear cells enriched in EPCs with well-defined angiogenic and anti-inflammatory phenotypes have recently been developed, and increasing eviden...

Endovascular thrombectomy in the setting of aortic dissection
Conclusions These three cases suggest that endovascular thrombectomy is feasible and can be done safely and efficaciously in patients with aortic dissections and those with Marfan syndrome, although the risks and benefits should be considered as part of any decision-making process. Given that endovascular therapy for acute stroke is now in many situations part of standard care, further studies will be necessary to delineate more precise inclusion and exclusion criteria.

The Kempe incision for decompressive craniectomy, craniotomy, and cranioplasty in traumatic brain injury and stroke
CONCLUSIONS: The Kempe incision for craniectomy or craniotomy is a safe, feasible, and effective alternative to the RQM. The authors advocate the Kempe incision in cases in which contralateral operative pathology or subsequent craniofacial/skull base repair is anticipated.PMID:34020415 | DOI:10.3171/2020.11.JNS203567

E-124 Timing surgery and hemorrhagic complications in endocarditis with concomitant cerebral complications
ConclusionsPatients with radiographic evidence of ischemic stroke from septic emboli can safely undergo valvular surgery for IE without increased risk of symptomatic hemorrhage. We advocate for baseline CTA screening to evaluate for IIA in patients who present with a primary diagnosis of IE and propose a management algorithm.Disclosures B. Lucke-Wold: None.
