Another Endovascular Therapy Strategy for Acute Tandem Occlusion: Protect-Expand-Aspiration-Revascularization-Stent (PEARS) Technique
This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of the “half” anterograde approach and clinical outcome of treated patients. Revascularization validity of the 2 “half” anterograde approach with (Protect-Expand-Aspiration-Revascularization-Stent [PEARS] technique) or without (plain technique) using an embolic prevention device and aspiration was also compared.

A potential new risk factor for stroke: Streptococcus mutans with collagen-binding protein
Among human oral bacteria, particular kinds of Streptococcus mutans (SM) known as dental caries pathogen have a collagen-binding protein called Cnm and show platelet aggregation inhibition and matrix metalloproteinase-9 activation. We have previously reported that these strains may be a risk factor for intracerebral hemorrhage. As a major sample providing hospital, we report here the clinical details including intracranial aneurysms and ischemic stroke.

Endovascular Mechanical Thrombectomy for Acute Ischemic Stroke under General Anesthesia versus Conscious Sedation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Endovascular mechanical thrombectomy (EMT) is the standard of care for eligible patients presenting with anterior circulation acute ischemic stroke (AIS) due to emergent large vessel occlusion (ELVO). The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to compare the outcomes between patients undergoing general anesthesia (GA) versus conscious sedation (CS) for these procedures.

Effect and Feasibility of Therapeutic Hypothermia in Patients with Hemorrhagic Stroke: A  Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Therapeutic hypothermia (TH) has shown good results in experimental models of hemorrhagic stroke. The clinical application of TH, however, remains controversial, since reports regarding its therapeutic effect are inconsistent.

Early Decompressive Hemicraniectomy for Malignant Middle Cerebral Artery Infarction in Asian patients: A single centre study
Early Decompression craniectomy(within 48-hours of stroke-onset) in acute and malignant middle cerebral artery(MCA) ischemic stroke(IS) reduces mortality and increases the proportion of patients with favourable functional outcome. Various cultural and social issues anong Asians lead to some differences in clinical practice specially when surgical interventions are involved. Accordingly decompressive craniectomy in Asian stroke patients is often delayed.

Corrigendum to “Coma and Stroke Following Surgical Treatment of Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysm: An American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program Study” World Neurosurgery (2016) 91:272–278
The authors regret that during post-submission review of our accepted manuscript, we discovered that the American College of Surgeons (ACS) National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) Participant User File issued a data update reporting a coding error for the postoperative coma outcome variable from 2011 onward. For this reason, we repeated our analysis excluding those patients who developed coma alone (n=3). Overall, the results remained the same. As such, we believe that the validity of our study is not threatened after excluding the inaccurate coma cases.

The Use of Flow-Diverter in Ruptured, Dissecting Intracranial Aneurysms of the Posterior Circulation
Acute dissecting aneurysms of the posterior circulation are a rare cause of SAH. Established endovascular treatment options include PAO and stent-assisted coiling, but appear to be associated with an increased risk of ischemic stroke. Vessel reconstruction with flow-diverters is an alternative treatment option, however, its safety and efficacy in the acute stage remains unclear.
