Endovascular treatment in patients with middle cerebral artery occlusion of different aetiologies
ConclusionsPatients with acute MCA M1 occlusion stroke due to different pathogeneses had comparable successful recanalization rates and functional independence at 90  days. The optimal management for MCAO patients with different aetiologies requires further research.

Staged endovascular recanalization for symptomatic atherosclerotic non-acutely occluded internal carotid artery
CONCLUSIONS: This retrospective study found that staged endovascular recanalization for symptomatic atherosclerotic NAOICA may be feasible with an acceptable technical success rate and a low complication rate in the selected candidates.PMID:36883208 | DOI:10.1177/15910199231162666

Hemodynamic depression in carotid artery stent without angioplasty.
CONCLUSION. The incidence of hemodynamic depression is low when carotid stenting procedure is performed without balloon angioplasty. The incidence of neurological complications post procedure was also low. This report highlights the need for performing randomized trials comparing both techniques.

P-013 Use of the Solitaire Device for Emergency Revascularization of the Superior Mesenteric Artery
ConclusionsThe techniques and equipment used for acute stroke intervention may be suitable for acute recanalization of peripheral vessels, under the right circumstances. As with many surgical interventions, a multidisciplinary approach may at times yield a novel and effective strategy for a difficult clinical problem.DisclosuresJ. Dalfino: None. A. Paul: None. J.

Multimodal Therapy for Non-Superacute Vertebral Basilar Artery Occlusion
Conclusion: For patients with posterior circulation stroke due to basilar artery or vertebral artery occlusion who present to the hospital 6 h after symptom onset and who exhibit deterioration of symptoms after drug treatment, multimodal recanalization of the occluded artery may be a feasible and safe therapy.Intervent Neurol 2017;6:254-262

Second Generation Drug-Eluting Stents for Endovascular Treatment of Ostial Vertebral Artery Stenosis: A Single Center Experience
Conclusion: Our study confirms the feasibility of deploying DES for the treatment of ostial vertebral artery stenosis with low peri-procedural risk and low medium-term rates of re-stenosis.

Endocardial occlusion of incompletely surgically ligated left atrial appendage using an Amplatzer septal occluder device
A 55-year-old man underwent a surgical Maze procedure for the treatment of nonvalvular atrial fibrillation with concomitant surgical suture ligation of left atrial appendage (LAA). Baseline transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) and computed tomography (CT) angiography revealed a normal LAA free of thrombus (A). Ten days after surgery, he developed an acute embolic stroke. Repeat TEE and CT angiography demonstrated an incompletely surgically ligated LAA (ISLL) without thrombus, with the ISLL neck dimensions measuring 3 × 3 mm (B). He was promptly initiated on oral anticoagulation (OAC) therapy. But owing to intolerance to...

Catheter-Based Interventions for Modified Blalock–Taussig Shunt Obstruction: A 20-Year Experience
Abstract Thrombotic occlusion of a modified Blalock–Taussig (BT) shunt is rare, leading to life-threatening hypoxemia. Rescue percutaneous interventions may allow recanalization of the systemic-to-pulmonary shunt but data on large patients’ scales are lacking. We aimed to describe safety and effectiveness of catheter-based interventions to restore modified BT shunt patency. All patients who attempted transcatheter intervention for thrombotic occlusion of a modified BT shunt at our Institution from 1994 to 2014 were reviewed. Characteristics, management, and outcomes of the 28 identified patients were analyzed....

Temporal Trends in Clinical Outcomes Following Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients with Renal Insufficiency.
CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of cardiovascular events after PCI has reduced during the 26-year period mainly because of the reduction in repeat revascularization in patients with renal insufficiency, despite the higher risk profiles in the recent era.
