Thrombolytic therapy in total mismatch with severe stroke after acute MCA-occlusion and negative DWI
Total mismatch is a recently described magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) pattern in acute stroke patients with no signal changes in diffusion weighted images (DWI) and extensive hypoperfusion on perfusion weighted images (PWI). The prognostic value and importance for treatment decision based on this finding in MRI have recently been controversially discussed in patients with minor stroke . Here we report a case of a 98-year-old woman that presented with severe stroke and total mismatch in the left middle cerebral artery (MCA) territory in MRI scan and an occlusion of the proximal MCA (M1) in time-of flight MR angiography (T...

Successful outcome after endovascular thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke with basis on perfusion-diffusion mismatch after 24 h of symptoms onset.
CONCLUSIONS: We report the case of a successful thrombolytic therapy following AIS performed more than 24 h after the initial symptoms based on the presence of a perfusion-diffusion mismatch. This report is expected to stimulate the development of future prospective studies with special focus on the role of perfusion-diffusion mismatch in patient selection for treatment of AIS, especially in those presenting outside the traditional time window.

Distal migration of the flow-redirection endoluminal device immediately after treatment: A case report and literature review
CONCLUSION: Distal migration of an FD in an acute setting, including the FRED, may occur even following appropriate placement. In-stent thrombosis can cause distal stent migration and thromboembolic stroke.PMID:35399895 | PMC:PMC8986641 | DOI:10.25259/SNI_1279_2021
