A Stroke/Vascular Neurology Service Increases the Volume of Urgent Carotid Endarterectomies Performed in a Tertiary Referral Center
Background: Increasing evidence supports that urgent carotid endarterectomy (CEA), defined as CEA during the index hospitalization, may be undertaken in select patients with acute carotid-related neurologic symptoms to prevent recurrent ischemic events. We aimed to determine the effect of a stroke/vascular neurology service on the volume of urgent CEAs performed and assess perioperative outcomes.Methods: A retrospective review from a single tertiary referral center between June 2005 through December 2011 revealed 393 patients who underwent CEA. We identified the number of urgent CEAs before (June 2005–August 2008) and af...

Female Sex Does Not Influence 30-Day Stroke and Mortality Rates after Carotid Endarterectomy
Conclusions: Female sex does not influence 30-day stroke and mortality rates after CEA, regardless of preoperative symptom status.

A Retrospective Study on Early Carotid Endarterectomy within 48 Hours after Transient Ischemic Attack and Stroke in Evolution
Conclusions: CEA can be performed with an acceptable risk in properly selected symptomatic patients within 48 hours after TIA or SIE. The benefits of early CEA in symptomatic patients include the prevention of recurrent stroke.

Stroke Outcomes In Sickle Cell Patients: From Children To Adults
One common and potentially devastating manifestation of sickle cell disease (SCD) that can occur in both a pediatric and adult population is stroke. Due to the high incidence of stroke in patients with SCD coupled with the severe, costly, and long-lasting effects, it is crucial to investigate this population. To date, there is no published data on stroke outcomes in pediatric and adult patients with SCD in Florida. The purpose of this study is to provide a modern look at the burden of stroke in this population.

TEVAR With Supra-Aortic Trunk Revascularization Is Associated With Increased Risk Of Periprocedural Ischemic Stroke
Ischemic stroke is a devastating complication of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). This risk may be higher in more proximal aneurysms that require arch manipulation. The purpose of this study was to (1) describe 30-day stroke and death rates in patients undergoing TEVAR, (2) compare stroke rates in patients undergoing TEVAR for arch versus descending aneurysm pathology, and (3) identify predictive factors associated with stroke after TEVAR.

Postoperative stroke after debranching with thoracic endovascular aortic repair
This study aimed to analyze the perioperative stroke rate, stroke lesions, outcome, risk factors, and stroke prevention following debranching with thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR).

Outcomes of Preferential Early Carotid Endarterectomy Following Recent Stroke
With the risk of recurrent ischemic stroke being highest in first week following TIA or stroke, the current guidelines of “early” endarterectomy within two weeks still leaves potential vulnerability for patients with a significant bifurcation lesion and a new stroke. The intent of this analysis is to determine the safety of carotid endarterectomy even earlier than current guidelines, based on a single surgeon exper ience over 12 years.

Effect of Postoperative Stroke Timing on Perioperative Mortality after Carotid Revascularization
In-hospital stroke (IHS) has been associated with worse outcomes than out-of-hospital stroke (OHS) due to delays in diagnosis and treatment. A paucity of studies exist comparing the timing of postoperative stroke after carotid revascularization. We aimed to study the effect of IHS vs. OHS on postoperative mortality in carotid revascularization patients in a large-scale national database.

Ischemic Stroke due to Paradoxical Embolism Arising from a Popliteal Vein Aneurysm
We present the case of a 63-year-old, right-handed man who presented to the emergency department with transitory ischemic accident (left superior extremity regressive monoplegia). Complete etiologic work-up led to the discovery of both a patent foramen ovale associated with an septum interauricular aneurysm, and of a PVA without mural thrombus. The diagnosis of brain paradoxical embolism was retained. The unique potentially embolic cause was the presence of the PVA. We decided to treat the PVA surgically to avoid a further cerebral vascular episode. Although uncommon, venous etiology must be considered for stroke.

CT Perfusion Imaging in the Selection of Acute Stroke Patients to Undergo Emergent Carotid Endarterectomy
Severe acute stroke patients with critical carotid stenosis or occlusion without intracranial thrombus typically do not undergo emergent carotid thromboendarterectomy (CEA) because of the risk of reperfusion-related intracranial hemorrhage. Past studies have not consistently demonstrated benefit of early operative intervention. Cerebral computed tomography (CT), cervical and cerebral CT angiography (CTA), and cerebral CT perfusion (CTP) imaging may identify a subset of acute stroke patients without intracranial thrombus who may benefit from emergent CEA.
