We would like to thank Lazarides et al in their letter to the editor regarding our report “Literature Review of Primary versus Patching versus Eversion as Carotid Endarterectomy Closure.”1 We agree with most of their comments. However, we did include a meta-analysis by Texakalidis et al.2 They had performed a meta-analysis of r andomized trials comparing bovine pericardium and other patch materials for carotid endarterectomy (CEA), which showed that the incidence of 30-day stroke, myocardial infarction, wound infection, death, cranial nerve injury, carotid artery thrombosis, and death were comparable.

Aspirin Alone Is Superior Therapy for Grade III Blunt Carotid Injury: A Multicenter Study from the Eastern Association for the Surgery of Trauma
The optimal treatment of blunt cerebrovascular injury (BCVI) remains unclear. Antiplatelet therapy and therapeutic anticoagulation have each demonstrated substantial reductions in BCVI-associated stroke without evidence of the superiority of either. Uncertainty surrounds grade III injury, in particular, because stroke can involve both platelet activation from endothelial injury and thrombus formation within the pseudoaneurysm sac. We hypothesized that treatment of grade III blunt carotid injury (BCI) with aspirin alone would be associated with a decreased rate of subsequent stroke compared with other medical therapies.

Acute limb ischemia among patients with covid-19 infection
SARS-CoV-2 infection has been associated with thrombotic complications such as deep vein thrombosis or stroke. Recently, numerous cases of acute limb ischemia (ALI) have been reported although pooled data are lacking.

Effect of occult malignancy on femoropopliteal bypass graft thrombosis
The presence of cancer increases arterial thromboembolic events, specifically myocardial infarction and stroke, before a formal diagnosis of cancer. To the best of our knowledge, this increase in thrombotic risk has not been studied in patients with lower extremity bypass grafts. In the present study, we aimed to determine the effect of occult cancer on femoropopliteal bypass patency.

Flow dynamics, false lumens and implications for endografting
The complications of endovascular stenting for type B aortic dissections are well-described and include paralysis from spinal cord ischemia, retrograde dissection, stroke, and access site complications. Owing to the inherent risk associated with this procedure, current practice is to withhold endovascular therapy unless the risk-benefit balance is in favor of intervention, such as with acute malperfusion or aneurysmal degeneration. Emphasis is placed on coverage of the entry tear, which has been advocated theoretically as the primary method to restore normal aortic hemodynamics and induce false lumen thrombosis, despite no...

Forgetting “routine” deep venous thrombosis and stroke during COVID-19 is a parallel pandemic that will be costly if ignored
The current COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a huge strategic and clinical change within the UK National Health Service (NHS) to ensure that it can cope with the surge in demand of respiratory patients. However, when attention is acutely shifted, routine care will suffer and that could be deadly for some and enormously expensive for the NHS in the long term. Fig, A, shows the increasing public interest over time relating to COVID-19 search terms in the Google Trends health category for the United Kingdom (UK) over the last 30 days.

LEA 24. Synthetic Marijuana and Acute Lower Limb Thromboembolism and Ischemia —A Case Report
Synthetic marijuana use has been reported in the last years as a possible causative factor of different cardiovascular events, including myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, intracranial bleeding, and cerebral vasospasm. One case of aortic thrombosis was also reported, but that was in a patient using cocaine and synthetic marijuana together. A case of lower limb thromboembolism and synthetic marijuana use has not been reported to date. Intoxication, material impurity, blood vessel reactivity, and chemical interaction with other drugs have been proposed as possible mechanisms of these events.

Invited commentary
Since current guidelines based on randomized clinical trials1-6 have established degree of carotid stenosis as the primary surrogate for stroke risk and indication for carotid endarterectomy or stenting, accurate assessment of the degree of carotid stenosis has been the traditional focus of carotid imaging.7 However, the degree of carotid stenosis is an inadequate assessment of stroke risk, and other key factors for determining carotid plaque vulnerability include intraplaque hemorrhage, plaque rupture, and luminal thrombus.

Low carotid stump pressure as a predictor for ischemic symptoms and as a marker for compromised cerebral reserve in octogenarians undergoing carotid endarterectomy
Carotid artery occlusive disease can cause stroke by embolization, thrombosis, and hypoperfusion. The majority of strokes secondary to cervical carotid atherosclerosis are believed to be of embolic etiology. However, cerebral hypoperfusion could be an important factor in perioperative stroke. We retrospectively reviewed the stump pressure (SP) of carotid endarterectomy (CEA) of patients at Pennsylvania Hospital to identify whether physiologic perfusion differences account for differences in perioperative stroke rates, particularly in octogenarians.

Timing of Hospital-Acquired Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) and its Relationship With VTE Prevention Measures in Immobile Patients
This study describes the timing of venous thromboembolism (VTE) diagnosis in patients with cerebral or spinal trauma and stroke and the relationships between VTE prevention and timing of VTE diagnosis at a community hospital.

PC164 Fast-Track Thrombolysis for Acute Lower Extremity In-Stent Occlusions: A Novel Approach to Minimize Complications of Standard Thrombolytic Therapy
The role of catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) in the treatment of acute lower extremity ischemia may require prolonged periods of time to achieve successful lysis. Prolonged thrombolysis infusion has demonstrated increased incidence of intracranial bleeding, stroke, and local complications. It is expensive and increases hospital length of stay. To minimize these potentially negative outcomes, we developed a fast track approach (FTA) that included the use of aggressive balloon angioplasty and stenting before the thrombus was completely lysed.

Acute Limb Ischemia and Outcomes With Vorapaxar in Patients With Peripheral Artery Disease: Results From the Trial to Assess the Effects of Vorapaxar in Preventing Heart Attack and Stroke in Patients With Atherosclerosis-Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction 50 (TRA2°P-TIMI 50)
Acute limb ischemia (ALI) occurs at a rate of 1.3% per year in patients with symptomatic peripheral arterial disease (PAD) without atrial fibrillation. Vorapaxar reduces ALI in patients with symptomatic PAD including PAD resulting from graft thrombosis and in-situ thrombosis.

Frequency of cancer in patients operated on for acute peripheral arterial thrombosis and the impact on prognosis
Little is known about acute peripheral arterial thrombosis in patients with concomitant cancer. Small studies suggest that revascularization in this patient group is associated with thrombosis and increased risk of amputation and death. We investigated the frequency of cancer in patients operated on for acute peripheral arterial thrombosis and the long-term risk of amputation, mortality, myocardial infarction, and stroke in a national cohort.
