Gut microbes in cerebrovascular diseases: Gut flora imbalance, potential impact mechanisms and promising treatment strategies
The high morbidity, mortality, and disability rates associated with cerebrovascular disease (CeVD) pose a severe danger to human health. Gut bacteria significantly affect the onset, progression, and prognosis of CeVD. Gut microbes play a critical role in gut-brain interactions, and the gut-brain axis is essential for communication in CeVD. The reflection of changes in the gut and brain caused by gut bacteria makes it possible to investigate early warning biomarkers and potential treatment targets. We primarily discussed the following three levels of brain-gut interactions in a systematic review of the connections between g...

Cerebral arterial fenestration associated with stroke and other cerebrovascular diseases
In this study, we aimed to investigate the imaging characteristics of cerebral fenestrations, the clinical characteristics of fenestrations complicated with cerebrovascular diseases, and the correlation between fenestrations and cerebrovascular diseases. Methods We reviewed the magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography (CT) imaging findings of patients with cerebrovascular fenestrations in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2016 to December 2020, mainly focused on the shape and location of fenestrations. According to the location of fenestrated arteries, patients were divided i...

Oral Surgery in Patients With Sturge-Weber Syndrome
The Sturge-Weber syndrome (SSW) is a congenital neurocutaneous malformation, with angiomas involving the leptomeningea and facial skin. This syndrome is characterized by corticocerebral angiomatosis, cerebral calcifications, ocular affections, mental retardation, increased risk of stroke, counterlateral hemiplegia, and seizures. Another important feature of SSW is the flameus nevus on the face. In the oral cavity, SSW appears as hemangiomatous lesions affecting the mucous membranes and occasionally the dental pulp. Gingival hyperplasia may be present due to the use of anticonvulsant drugs. The present article reports the m...

Management of PHACES syndrome: Risk of stroke and its prevention from a neurosurgical perspective.
CONCLUSIONS: Patients within the intermediate and high-risk strata for ischemic stroke must undergo a 6-vessel cerebral angiography and further hemodynamic evaluation to indicate need for cerebral revascularization to prevent ischemic stroke. Non-progressive vasculopathy associated with PHACES can itself be hemodynamically relevant for neurosurgical intervention. This vasculopathy is distinct from moyamoya angiopathy, which can occur in conjunction with PHACES, resulting in concurrent progressive vasculopathy that would otherwise be absent.

Sensors, Vol. 19, Pages 2573: Cerebral Small Vessel Disease Biomarkers Detection on MRI-Sensor-Based Image and Deep Learning
-Chun Hsieh Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers the most detailed brain structure image available today; it can identify tiny lesions or cerebral cortical abnormalities. The primary purpose of the procedure is to confirm whether there is structural variation that causes epilepsy, such as hippocampal sclerotherapy, local cerebral cortical dysplasia, and cavernous hemangioma. Cerebrovascular disease, the second most common factor of death in the world, is also the fourth leading cause of death in Taiwan, with cerebrovascular disease having the highest rate of stroke. Among the most common are large vascular atheroscl...

What Causes Facial Nerve Palsy?
Discussion Facial nerve palsy has been known for centuries, but in 1821 unilateral facial nerve paralysis was described by Sir Charles Bell. Bell’s palsy (BP) is a unilateral, acute facial paralysis that is clinically diagnosed after other etiologies have been excluded by appropriate history, physical examination and/or laboratory testing or imaging. Symptoms include abnormal movement of facial nerve. It can be associated with changes in facial sensation, hearing, taste or excessive tearing. The right and left sides are equally affected but bilateral BP is rare (0.3%). Paralysis can be complete or incomplete at prese...

Sturge-Weber Syndrome Coexisting With Moyamoya Disease in the Fifth Decade: A Case Report and Literature Review
Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) is a sporadically occurring neurocutaneous syndrome characterized by port-wine stain over the face, ocular abnormalities (glaucoma and choroidal hemangioma), and leptomeningeal angiomas. It is usually diagnosed in infancy, but it may occasionally present in adulthood with seizures or stroke-like episodes. Here, we report a 46-year-old male patient, having SWS coexisting with moyamoya disease, attending our hospital due to sudden loss of consciousness. We also searched PubMed (from its earliest date to August 2014) for case reports mentioning that SWS presents in adulthood. We identified 31 patie...

Open resection and laryngotracheal reconstruction in a case of subglottic hemangioma in PHACE syndrome
We describe a 1 month old infant with PHACE syndrome who underwent successful management of subglottic hemangioma by open resection and laryngotracheal reconstruction using a thyroid ala graft. Propranolol is typically the treatment of choice for subglottic hemangiomas however, recent reports have suggested adverse complications with the use of propranolol in children with PHACE syndrome. The child had cerebral and cervical vascular anomalies associated with her PHACE syndrome making her at an increased risk of stroke with the use of propranolol.

Sodium Tetradecyl Sulfate: A Review of Clinical Uses
CONCLUSION: Although not always the most effective method of treatment in off-label usage, use of STS has been frequently selected for a variety of applications for reasons of simplicity, low cost, lack of availability of technologically advanced equipment, and intricacies related to anatomic location.

Moyamoya vasculopathy in PHACE syndrome: six new cases and review of the literature
PHACE syndrome is a neurocutaneous disorder including posterior fossa malformations, hemangiomas, arterial lesions, cardiac defects, and eye abnormalities. PHACE arteriopathies may be progressive and have been recently categorized based on the risk of acute ischemic stroke, raising attention to the potentially devastating consequences of cerebrovascular complications in this syndrome. On the other hand, the natural history of arteriopathy in PHACE syndrome remains poorly understood. At the moment, there are no established surgical guidelines for high risk vasculopathies, including quasi-moyamoya, in this syndrome.

A rare cause of stroke in young: PHACE syndrome (P1.253)
Conclusions:Neurocutaneous syndromes are typically diagnosed in childhood and can be a rare cause of stroke in young. Our patient suffered an ischemic stroke secondary to sequelae of undiagnosed PHACE syndrome. Early identification of neurocutaneous syndromes allows for proper surveillance, evaluation, and preventative education for development of complications.Disclosure: Dr. Fitzgerald has nothing to disclose. Dr. Chandra has nothing to disclose. Dr. Dannenbaum has nothing to disclose. Dr. Sharrief has nothing to disclose.

“Phacing” a New Cause of Carotid Artery Dissection
Conclusions: Noteworthy, among vascular abnormalities of PHACE, CADs have never been reported before. Our 2 cases suggest that CAD is an underecognized cerebrovascular manifestation of PHACE and it should be searched for in these patients. Ultrasound, being noninvasive and portable, is a useful tool for the assessment and follow-up of these patients.

Prevalence and Clinical Characteristics of Headaches in PHACE Syndrome
The objective of this study was to characterize the clinical features and prevalence of headache by conducting a cross-sectional survey of families in 2 large PHACE registries. Sixty-six percent of eligible families completed the survey in which 62.7% of respondents reported headaches. Average age of headache onset was 48.8 months. Females were more likely to have headaches (68.6% vs 30.8%, P = .014). Families reported associated migrainous features including nausea (62.5%), vomiting (37.5%), photophobia (75%), and phonophobia (75%). Headaches occurred at least weekly in 29.4%, lasted ≥1 hour in 85.4%, and led to ≥1 ...
