Mechanical thrombectomy performed in thrombosed fusiform aneurysm after surgery for craniopharyngioma in adult: Case report
Biomed Pap Med Fac Univ Palacky Olomouc Czech Repub. 2021 Mar 31. doi: 10.5507/bp.2021.018. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTINTRODUCTION: Fusiform dilatation of the internal carotid artery (ICA) is reported as a possible complication of craniopharyngioma resection in childhood. Here, the authors describe such a complication in an adult patient who presented with acute symptomatic thrombosis 7 months after surgery.MATERIALS AND METHODS: A 45-year-old woman presented with left hemispheric stroke due to a thrombotic supraclinoid occlusion of the terminal ICA (so called "T" occlusion). Successful revascularisation was achieved w...

Safety of early discharge in low risk patients after acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Open label, randomized trial.
CONCLUSION: This study confirms that early discharge within 48-72 h in selected low risk patients after STEMI treated with successful primary PCI is feasible and safe, with outcomes comparable to the later discharge. This strategy applies to more than a quarter of all STEMI patients. PMID: 30181666 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque - review of current concepts and advanced imaging.
Authors: Spacek M, Zemanek D, Hutyra M, Sluka M, Taborsky M Abstract Atherosclerosis is the most common cause of both carotid and coronary steno-occlusive disease. Rupture of an atherosclerotic plaque may lead to the formation of an overlying thrombosis resulting in complete arterial occlusion or downstream embolism. Clinically, this may manifest as a stroke or acute myocardial infarction, the overall leading causes of mortality and disability in developed countries. In this article, we summarize current concepts of the development of vulnerable plaque and provide an overview of commonly used imaging methods that m...
