Treatment Strategies for Tandem Occlusions in Acute Ischemic Stroke
Semin intervent Radiol 2020; 37: 207-213 DOI: 10.1055/s-0040-1709207There is no consensus for the treatment of a tandem occlusion (TO) in a patient presenting with an acute ischemic stroke. In this review article, we will focus on the controversial treatment strategies for TOs. First, we will discuss treatment options including retrograde, antegrade, and delayed approaches. Second, the role of carotid stent placement versus balloon angioplasty for the extracranial occlusion will be presented. Third, anticoagulation and antiplatelet regimens for the treatment TOs published in the literature will be reviewed. Finally, we wil...

E-091 Intracranial atherosclerotic disease leads to poor mechanical thrombectomy outcomes in cocaine associated acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusions
Conclusion: In this case series, intracranial atherosclerosis secondary to cocaine use and vasospasm contributed to unsuccessful recanalization and reocclusion in patients undergoing MT with poor outcomes. Further studies are needed to ascertain strategies for improved outcomes in patients with LVO related to cocaine use.Disclosures M. Memon: None. M. Kushnirsky: None. S. Koch: None. D. Yavagal: None.

Angiographical Identification of Intracranial, Atherosclerosis-Related, Large Vessel Occlusion in Endovascular Treatment
Conclusions Among only a few identification methods, the ICAS-LVO can be feasibly identified by angiographical findings. The identification of ICAS-LVO based on based on occlusion type, is a reliable and practical identification method for ICAS-LVO. Procedural details by occlusion type and its predictability to endovascular results were reported. Furthermore, occlusion type can be determined before or in the early stages of the procedure, which may be most helpful in setting up an optimal endovascular treatment strategy. Author Contributions J-HB established the study idea, designed the manuscript structure, acquired an...

Endovascular therapy versus medical treatment for symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis
CONCLUSIONS: This review provides moderate-certainty evidence that ET plus CMT compared with CMT alone increases the risk of short-term stroke and death in people with recent symptomatic severe ICAS. This effect was still apparent at long-term follow-up but appeared to be due to the early risks of ET; therefore, there may be no clear difference between the interventions in terms of their effects on long-term stroke and death. The impact of delayed ET intervention (more than three weeks after a qualifying event) warrants further study.PMID:36738471 | DOI:10.1002/14651858.CD013267.pub3

Endovascular therapy versus medical treatment for symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis.
CONCLUSIONS: This systematic review provides moderate-quality evidence showing that ET, compared with CMT, in people with recent symptomatic severe intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis probably does not prevent recurrent stroke and appears to carry an increased hazard. The impact of delayed ET intervention (more than three weeks after a qualifying event) is unclear and may warrant further study. PMID: 32789891 [PubMed - in process]

VasSol touts data on MRI-based blood flow measurement
VasSol said last week that results from a trial of its Nova non-invasive optimal vessel analysis showed that the device was able to identify critical trial patients at higher risk of recurrent stroke. The results from the study were published in the JAMA Neurology journal. Results from the 6-year, multi-center Veritas trial indicated that patients who experience a stroke in the back of their brain, and continue to have reduced blood flow to the area, have a higher risk of having another stroke within 2 years. “Nova is the only technology that can visualize and quantify the volume, speed and direction of blood flow...

A Case of Transient Global Amnesia: A Review and How It May Shed Further Insight into the Neurobiology of Delusions
Conclusion In closing, our patient’s episode of TGA combined with her emotional and perceptual response lends credence to the proposal of a “fear/paranoia” circuit in the genesis of paranoid delusions—a circuit incorporating amygdala, frontal, and parietal cortices. Here, neutral or irrelevant stimuli, thoughts, and percepts come to engender fear and anxiety, while dysfunction in frontoparietal circuitry engenders inappropriate social predictions and maladaptive inferences about the intentions of others.[54] Hippocampus relays information about contextual information based on past experiences and the current situat...

Intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis: risk factors, diagnosis, and treatment
Lancet Neurol. 2022 Feb 7:S1474-4422(21)00376-8. doi: 10.1016/S1474-4422(21)00376-8. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIntracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) is one of the most frequent causes of stroke worldwide and confers one of the greatest risks of recurrent stroke compared with other causes of stroke. Asymptomatic ICAS is increasingly recognised as a risk factor for silent brain infarctions and dementia, magnifying the global burden of ICAS. Although ICAS is a lumen-based diagnosis, newer diagnostic imaging techniques, such as high-resolution MRI, might help to identify high-risk population subgroups to test interv...

Long-term Outcome of Angioplasty Using a  Wingspan Stent, Post-Stent Balloon Dilation and Aggressive Restenosis Management for Intracranial Arterial Stenosis
ConclusionThe postprocedural stroke rate was similar to that observed in the SAMMPRIS study. Symptomatic restenosis may be reduced by poststent dilation, close angiographic follow-up, and retreatment.

Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting for vertebral artery stenosis
CONCLUSIONS: This Cochrane Review provides low- to moderate-certainty evidence indicating that there are no significant differences in either short- or long-term risks of stroke, death, or TIA between people with symptomatic vertebral artery stenosis treated with ET plus MT and those treated with MT alone.PMID:35579383 | DOI:10.1002/14651858.CD013692.pub2

Endovascular Treatment of Thrombosis and Embolism.
Authors: Goktay AY, Senturk C Abstract Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) is a common disorder with a significant mortality rate. Successful endovascular treatment of acute DVT is most likely to be achieved in patients with recently formed thrombus, (<10-14 days) with acute iliofemoral DVT. Endovascular treatment options include: Catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT), pharmacomechanical catheter-directed thrombolysis (PCDT), percutaneous aspiration thrombectomy (PAT), vena cava filter protection, venous balloon dilatation and venous stent implantation. Current practice shows strong clinical tendency for the use of PCDT...
