Combined Endovascular Antegrade and Direct Retrograde Carotid Artery Stenting for Chronic and Long Segment Common Carotid Artery Occlusion: Technical Note and Review of Literature
Neurol Med Chir (Tokyo). 2023 Apr 6. doi: 10.2176/jns-nmc.2022-0397. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCommon carotid artery (CCA) occlusion (CCAO) is a rare cause of ischemic stroke and bypass surgery is the common treatment approach. However, safer alternatives should be developed to treat CCAO. A 68-year-old male was diagnosed with left-sided CCAO with decreased left visual acuity due to neck radiation therapy for laryngeal cancer. Recanalization therapy using a pull-through technique was initiated because cerebral blood flow progressively decreased during the follow-up period. First, after a short sheath was inserted into ...

O-032 Treatment outcomes for ARUBA eligible brain arteriovenous malformations: a comparison of real world data from the NVQI-QOD AVM registry to the ARUBA trial
ConclusionARUBA eligible patients from the NVQI-QOD registry demonstrate a significantly lower risk of stroke or death with intervention of 8.0% (N=174) compared to the 30.7% (N=114) ARUBA trial interventional risk, and is nearly equivalent to the ARUBA trial medical management risk of 10.1% (N=109) over 33 months.Disclosures N.

Atypical imaging findings of presumed stroke-like migraine attacks after radiation therapy syndrome in the brainstem
AbstractThe authors present an atypical case of presumed stroke-like migraine attacks after radiation therapy (SMART) syndrome in the brainstem. A 29-year-old male, who had been treated with resection and subsequent craniospinal radiation for posterior fossa medulloblastoma 21 years before, presented with subacute progressive left hemiparesis evolving over 4 days. Hematological findings, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and electroencephalogram (EEG) were unremarkable. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a round area of hyperintense FLAIR signal centered within the pons associated with central restricted diffusion, periphera...

Carotid Sparing Conformal Radiotherapy for Early Larynx Cancer
Parallel opposed lateral (POL) portals have been adopted as the mainstay radiation therapy technique for early-stage carcinoma of the glottis. Although the use of POL has been associated with excellent control rates and tolerability, the partial inclusion of carotid arteries (CAs) in the high dose regions of the fields has been shown to lead to an increased long-term risk of carotid stenosis and hemorrhagic stroke. Many researchers have proposed the utilization of three-dimension conformal therapy (3DCRT) or Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) as viable carotid-sparing techniques via reductions to the mean and max...

Cancer and Cerebrovascular Disease
AbstractPurpose of ReviewTo review the latest information about the interactions between cancer and cerebrovascular disease.Recent FindingsAdditional data support the finding that both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke are important complications of cancer or its treatment. Reperfusion therapy is being given successfully to patients with stroke complicating cancer.SummaryHemorrhagic stroke may occur with metastatic disease to the brain, coagulopathies from cancer, in particular leukemia, or as complications of chemotherapy. Ischemic stroke also may be a complication of metastatic disease with local invasion of vessels, a pro...

A Reanalysis of Predictors for the Risk of Hemorrhage in Brain Arteriovenous Malformation
Brain arteriovenous malformation (BAVM) is a congenital cerebral vascular disease that characterized with intracranial hemorrhage and epilepsy. It has some risk in current treatments including microsurgery, endovascular, and radiation therapy. Some patients with bAVMs may keep unruptured in their whole life. Whether it should be treated depends on the evaluation of the hemorrhage risk of bAVM. Although previous studies gave many significant predictors, we tried to find some new and more significant predictors in 173 patients with bAVMS by retrospective analysis.

Risk of Symptomatic Stroke After Radiation Therapy for Childhood Cancer: A Long-Term Follow-Up Cohort Analysis
Long-term childhood cancer survivors are at high risk of late adverse effects, including stroke. We aimed to determine the cumulative incidence of clinically validated symptomatic stroke (transient ischemic attack [TIA], cerebral infarction, and intracerebral hemorrhage [ICH]) and to quantify dose-effect relationships for cranial radiation therapy (CRT) and supradiaphragmatic radiation therapy (SDRT).
