Cumulative Incidence of Thromboembolism and Prognostic Impact of Stroke in < em > BRAF < /em > V600E-mutant Non-small-cell Lung Cancer
CONCLUSION: A substantial proportion of patients with BRAF V600E-mutant lung cancer experienced thromboembolism during their disease course. CRS of undetermined source may predict a worse prognosis in this population.PMID:36697098 | DOI:10.21873/anticanres.16237

Pulmonary embolism and fatal stroke in a patient with severe factor XI deficiency after bariatric surgery
We report the case of a 40-year-old woman with a severe factor XI (FXI) deficiency who died from a stroke due to bilateral internal carotid arteries occlusion after a laparoscopic gastric bypass (bariatric surgery). This stroke was probably secondary to a pulmonary embolism with a paradoxical embolism through a previously unknown foramen ovale. This woman who had one severe episode of bleeding before the bypass received for the intervention a single infusion of 27 U/kg of FXI concentrate. A careful evaluation of the bleeding and thrombotic risk was performed before surgery, and despite all preventive measures, this tragi...

Simultaneous onset of myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke in a patient with atrial fibrillation: Multiple territory injury revealed on angiography and magnetic resonance
An 84-year-old man with a history of hypertension and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) who received no anticoagulant drugs experienced acute chest pain and transient loss of consciousness. He was transferred to our emergency room. His initial electrocardiogram showed sinus rhythm with ST-segment elevation in the I, aVL, and V1–V6 leads. His blood pressure was 158/92mmHg and his pulse was regular at 70beats per minute. A chest radiograph showed increased heart size and pulmonary vascular congestion. His troponin T level was elevated (more than 0.1ng/mL). He was diagnosed with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (MI) and...

A Rare Association between Ulcerative Colitis and Bilateral Thalamic Stroke (P6.270)
CONCLUSIONS:Cerebral sinus and vein thrombosis is a serious and often fatal complication of idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease if undiagnosed. It should be considered in any patient with little or no known vascular risk factors presenting with a severe headache and other focal or diffuse neurological signs.Disclosure: Dr. Misthal has nothing to disclose.

Spontaneous sternocleidomastoid muscle hematoma following thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke
We report the case of an 83y.o. woman with right facio-brachio-crural hemiparesis, left deviation of the head and aphasia who developed, after thrombolytic therapy, a spontaneous sternocleidomastoid muscle hematoma that regressed few days later. To our knowledge, this is the first case reported in the literature of asymptomatic and spontaneous skeletal muscle hematoma following thrombolysis for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. The occurrence of lateral cervical tuberculosis lymphadenitis ipsilateral to sternocleidomastoid muscle hematoma may suggest a causal relationship between local chronic inflammation of active ...

Patent foramen ovale increases the risk of acute ischemic stroke in patients with acute pulmonary embolism leading to right ventricular dysfunction
Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is an established risk factor for ischemic stroke. Since acute right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) observed in patients with PE can lead to right-to-left inter-atrial shunt via PFO, we hypothesized that PFO is a risk factor for ischemic stroke in PE with significant right ventricular dysfunction.

Early Wallerian degeneration in a neonate with MCA stroke
A 23-day-old female with history of transposition of great arteries, ventricular septal defect, pulmonary stenosis and placement of right modified Blalock-Taussig shunt complicated by thrombosis at age 9 days of life presented with episodes of upper extremity extension and gasping respirations concerning for seizure. Brain MRI demonstrated an extensive, acute right middle carotid artery (MCA) territory stroke with occlusion of the right proximal MCA. There was also a small left frontal stroke. Diffusion restriction abnormalities with simultaneous presence of hyperintensity on T2 sequences in the cotricospinal tract consist...

Comment Intermittent pneumatic compression after stroke
Acute stroke often causes immobility, which predisposes to deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism and these can be fatal or disabling. Low-dose subcutaneous anticoagulation with heparins and heparinoids reduces the risk of venous thromboembolism, but the benefit is offset by haemorrhagic complications. Even targeting anticoagulation to patients at high risk of venous thromboembolism and low risk of bleeding does not add value because patients at high risk of venous thromboembolism (eg, increased severity of stroke) are also at high risk of bleeding.

Early Wallerian Degeneration in a Neonate With Middle Carotid Artery Stroke
A 23-day-old girl with a history of transposition of the great arteries, ventricular septal defect, pulmonary stenosis, and placement of right modified Blalock-Taussig shunt complicated by thrombosis at age 9 days of life presented with episodes of upper extremity extension and gasping respirations concerning for seizure. Brain magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated an extensive, acute right middle carotid artery territory stroke with occlusion of the right proximal middle carotid artery. There was also a small left frontal stroke.

Left Upper Lung Lobectomy Is an Embolic Risk Factor for Cerebral Infarction
Cerebral embolism is typically caused by a cardiogenic thrombus. The patent foramen ovale is a well-known cause of paradoxical embolism. However, some idiopathic cases of stroke have been reported. Such strokes are designated as embolic stroke of undetermined sources. Among them, lung lobectomy may be a new embolic risk factor for cerebral embolism. The risk of thrombus formation is high at the pulmonary vein stump after lung lobectomy, especially in the left upper lobe. Interestingly, the risk remains several years after surgery.

Relationship between patient safety indicator events and comprehensive stroke center volume status in the treatment of unruptured cerebral aneurysms.
CONCLUSIONS In the treatment of unruptured cerebral aneurysms, PSI events occur relatively frequently and are associated with significant increases in morbidity and mortality. In patients treated at institutions achieving the volume thresholds for CSC certification, the likelihood of having a PSI event, and therefore the likelihood of poor outcome and mortality, was significantly decreased. These improvements are being driven by the improved outcomes in surgical patients, whereas outcomes and mortality in patients treated endovascularly were not sensitive to the CSC volume status of the hospital and showed no significant r...

Bail-out intracranial stenting with solitaire ab device after unsuccessfull trombectomy in acute ischemic stroke of anterior circulation
Conclusion Bail-out intracranial stenting after unsuccessful thrombectomy is technically feasible and the associated haemorrhagic risk seems acceptable in selected patients. We suggest that bail-out intracranial stenting, is safe and effective in selected patients with LVO stroke who failed to respond to thrombectomy.
