Endovascular Treatment of Thrombosis and Embolism.
Authors: Goktay AY, Senturk C Abstract Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) is a common disorder with a significant mortality rate. Successful endovascular treatment of acute DVT is most likely to be achieved in patients with recently formed thrombus, (<10-14 days) with acute iliofemoral DVT. Endovascular treatment options include: Catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT), pharmacomechanical catheter-directed thrombolysis (PCDT), percutaneous aspiration thrombectomy (PAT), vena cava filter protection, venous balloon dilatation and venous stent implantation. Current practice shows strong clinical tendency for the use of PCDT...

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.

A Case of Transient Global Amnesia: A Review and How It May Shed Further Insight into the Neurobiology of Delusions
Conclusion In closing, our patient’s episode of TGA combined with her emotional and perceptual response lends credence to the proposal of a “fear/paranoia” circuit in the genesis of paranoid delusions—a circuit incorporating amygdala, frontal, and parietal cortices. Here, neutral or irrelevant stimuli, thoughts, and percepts come to engender fear and anxiety, while dysfunction in frontoparietal circuitry engenders inappropriate social predictions and maladaptive inferences about the intentions of others.[54] Hippocampus relays information about contextual information based on past experiences and the current situat...

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.

P-011 initial experience with the lazarus cover device to prevent embolization in new territories during mechanical thombectomy
ConclusionsApplicationof the Cover device when performing acute stroke thrombectomy is feasible, appears to be safe, and may result in good successful recanalization rates with less embolic events.ReferenceGascou G, Lobotesis K, Machi P, et al.

Reappraisal of primary balloon angioplasty without stenting for patients with symptomatic middle cerebral artery stenosis.
We describe our experience with primary balloon angioplasty without stenting for symptomatic middle cerebral artery (MCA) stenosis. All patients who underwent balloon angioplasty without stenting for MCA stenosis between 1996 and 2010 were retrospectively reviewed. We evaluated technical success rates, degrees of stenosis, and stroke or death within 30 days. Among patients who were followed-up for > 1 year we evaluated latest functional outcomes, stroke recurrence at 1 year, and restenosis. In total 45/47 patients (95.7%) were successfully treated. Average pre- and postprocedure stenosis rates were 79.9% and 39.5%, resp...

Optimizing endovascular stroke therapy: A primary PCI deja‐vu?
Key Points The optimal revascularization modality (thromboembolectomy, suction thrombectomy, angioplasty with stenting, and stent retriever thrombectomy) for the cerebral circulation remains to be defined Catheter‐based therapy of the acute stroke yields better clinical outcomes in patients <65‐year‐old, with a door‐to‐balloon time <4 hr and successful reperfusion TICI ≥ 2. Considering the significant incidence of acute strokes which are either ineligible for intravenous thrombolytic therapy or present too late, catheter‐based therapies may offer an alternative treatment option. Interventional card...

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....

E-031 Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke Due to Thrombosis of Stenotic Atherosclerotic Lesions of the Posterior Circulation
Conclusion Endovascular treatment can be performed with high rates of technical success for AIS due to thrombosis at chronic atherosclerotic lesions. In spite of potential for poor outcomes, significant recovery of function is possible following treatment. Further evaluation is warranted to identify those patients most likely to respond to such intervention. Disclosures M. Alexander: None. J. Rebhun: None. S.

Potential for the Use of the Solitaire Stent for Recanalization of Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion without a Susceptibility Vessel Sign INTERVENTIONAL
CONCLUSIONS: The Solitaire stent is a feasible tool as the first-line device for multimodal endovascular recanalization therapy in acute ischemic stroke with a negative MCA susceptibility vessel sign. It has a good rate of successful and complete recanalization and is a fast yet safe procedure.

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...

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.
