Predictors of 30-day postoperative stroke or death after carotid endarterectomy using the 2012 carotid endarterectomy-targeted American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database
This study used a recently released procedure-targeted multicenter data source to determine independent predictors of postoperative stroke or death in patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy (CEA) for carotid artery stenosis.

Cryptogenic Stroke Following Abdominal Free Flap Breast Reconstruction Surgery
Conclusion Surgeons and cardiologists should be aware of this cerebrovascular complication secondary to PFO following major reconstructive surgery such as microvascular breast reconstruction. It also serves to challenge microvascular surgeons to reconsider routine use of central venous pressure lines in free flap patients who might otherwise have good peripheral vessels for postoperative fluids and antibiotic administration.

Case report: Intraluminal thrombus attached to the lesser curvature of the aortic arch and cerebral ischemic stroke after its surgical removal
Some cases of thrombi at the ascending and descending aorta have been reported, but there are only a few reports of intraluminal aortic arch thrombi. Most intraluminal thrombi are associated with atherosclerotic lesions at the aortic wall. Here we report a case of an intraluminal thrombus attached to the lesser curvature of the aortic arch. The thrombus was successfully and completely excised, and the pathological study suggested no obvious atherosclerotic changes in the aortic wall. Two months after surgical removal of the thrombus, the patient suffered a severe cerebral ischemic stroke caused by a newly formed thromboemb...

Intraluminal Thrombus Attached to the Lesser Curvature of the Aortic Arch and Cerebral Ischemic Stroke after Its Surgical Removal
Some cases of thrombi at the ascending and descending aorta have been reported, but there are only a few reports of intraluminal aortic arch thrombi. Most intraluminal thrombi are associated with atherosclerotic lesions at the aortic wall. Here, we report a case of an intraluminal thrombus attached to the lesser curvature of the aortic arch. The thrombus was successfully and completely excised, and the pathologic study suggested no obvious atherosclerotic changes in the aortic wall. Two months after surgical removal of the thrombus, the patient suffered a severe cerebral ischemic stroke caused by a newly formed thromboembo...

Mechanism of Procedural Stroke Following Carotid Endarterectomy or Carotid Artery Stenting Within the International Carotid Stenting Study (ICSS) Randomised Trial
This study analysed the features of procedural strokes associated with carotid artery stenting (CAS) and carotid endarterectomy (CEA) within the International Carotid Stenting Study (ICSS) to identify the underlying pathophysiological mechanism.

Stroke volume variation to guide fluid therapy: is it suitable for high-risk surgical patients? A terminated randomized controlled trial
Conclusions Our study was stopped due to a slow inclusion rate. Methodological restrictions of the arterial-line cardiac output monitor excluded the majority of patients. This leaves the question if this method is appropriate to guide fluid therapy in high-risk surgical patients. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01473446.

Commentary on ‘Stroke/Death Rates Following Carotid Artery Stenting and Carotid Endarterectomy in Contemporary Administrative Dataset Registries: A Systematic Review’
The aim of the study by Paraskevas et al.1 was to compare stroke/death rates after CAS/CEA in contemporary dataset registries, to determine whether they fall within the AHA thresholds and if they had declined over time.
