The Angiographic Anatomy of the Sphenoidal Segment of the Middle Cerebral Artery and Its Relevance in Mechanical Thrombectomy
Conclusion: It is important to corroborate our findings and to develop a pragmatic classification to accurately assess MCA occlusions from the radiological and clinical perspective.Intervent Neurol 2019;8:231 –241

Comprehensive Stroke Center Certification Series: Setting the Vision
The road to Comprehensive Stroke Center (CSC) certification is challenging and requires full integration of neurological, neurosurgical, neurointerventional, and neurocritical care and rehabilitation services across the entire continuum of care. To successfully achieve this level of certification, centers must coordinate significant resources and services into an organized program. This paper is the first in a three-part series outlining common pitfalls facing many organizations during their journey to initial CSC certification and re-certification and offers a roadmap and pearls for success on this journey. Setting the vi...

Understanding the Radial Force of Stroke Thrombectomy Devices to Minimize Vessel Wall Injury: Mechanical Bench Testing of the Radial Force Generated by a Novel Braided Thrombectomy Assist Device Compared to Laser-Cut Stent Retrievers in Simulated MCA Vessel Diameters
Conclusions: Novel braided thrombectomy assist devices in conjunction with aspiration systems have lower RFs than existing laser-cut stent retrievers in M1 and M2 vessel diameters. Further in vivo studies are needed to delineate the impact of lowering the RF on vessel wall integrity.Intervent Neurol 2019;8:206 –214

Safety and Efficacy of Flow Reversal in Acute and Elective Carotid Angioplasty and Stenting Using the Mo.Ma Device with Short-Term Follow-Up
Conclusion: Flow reversal using the Mo.Ma device is a safe and effective strategy in preventing distal embolization during carotid artery revascularization.Intervent Neurol 2019;8:196 –205

Thrombectomy Outcomes in Acute Ischemic Stroke due to Middle Cerebral Artery M2 Occlusion with Stent Retriever versus Aspiration: A Multicenter Experience
Conclusion: Utilization of a newer-generation pump aspiration catheter compared to a stent retriever resulted in similar outcomes, but worse outcomes were seen with the manual aspiration technique. These findings need to be confirmed with a large randomized trial utilizing stent retrievers and newer-generation pump aspiration systems.Intervent Neurol 2019;8:180 –186

Predictors of Acute Neurological Worsening after Endovascular Thrombectomy
Conclusion: Our single-center retrospective cohort result is limited by small sample size. It showed that high admission BG is an independent predictor of NW after EVT and ultimately leads to poor outcome.Intervent Neurol 2019;8:172 –179

Body Mass Index and Clinical Outcomes in Large Vessel Occlusion Acute Ischemic Stroke after Endovascular Therapy
Conclusion: In patients treated with mechanical thrombectomy, BMI is not associated with outcomes. However, patients who are overweight or obese have more comorbidities and a higher stroke risk and, thus, should strive for a normal weight.Intervent Neurol 2019;8:144 –151

Impact of MRI Selection on Triage of Endovascular Therapy in Acute Ischemic Stroke: The MRI in Acute Management of Ischemic Stroke (MIAMIS) Registry
Conclusions: Multimodality MRI screening for AIS symptoms for ET is feasible. Optimizing each center ’s protocol and the utilization of MRI with DWI only may be a time-saving alternative.Intervent Neurol 2019;8:135 –143

Prospective Endovascular Treatment in Acute Ischemic Stroke Evaluating Non-Contrast Head CT versus CT Perfusion (PLEASE No CTP)
Conclusions: CTP penumbra did not identify patients who would benefit from endovascular treatment when patients were selected with non-contrast CT ASPECTS ≥7. There is no correlation of CTP penumbra with good outcomes or mortality. Larger prospective trials are warranted to justify the use of CTP within 6 h of symptom onset.Intervent Neurol 2019;8:116 –122
