Multimodal Therapy for Non-Superacute Vertebral Basilar Artery Occlusion
Conclusion: For patients with posterior circulation stroke due to basilar artery or vertebral artery occlusion who present to the hospital 6 h after symptom onset and who exhibit deterioration of symptoms after drug treatment, multimodal recanalization of the occluded artery may be a feasible and safe therapy.Intervent Neurol 2017;6:254-262

P-013 Long-term outcome of balloon angioplasty without stenting for symptomatic middle cerebral artery stenosis
Conclusions Balloon angioplasty without stenting for symptomatic MCA stenosis can be performed with a high successful rate and a low risk of complications. Long-term outcome data suggest that this procedure reduces the risk of further strokes. Disclosures T. Ueda: None. T. Takada: None. S. Takaishi: None. T. Fukano: None. K. Tatsuno: None. T.

P-014 Beyond diagnostic angiography: the transradial approach as first line for both anterior and posterior circulation interventions
Conclusions This represents the largest series of TRA for anterior circulation neurointerventional procedures. The targeted intervention was successfully performed via the radial approach in 91% of the cases, for a wide variety of pathologies, with no access-related complications. Given this technical success and improved access safety profile, we now employ the transradial approach as first line for interventional procedures. Disclosures J. Caplan: None. B. Snelling: None. S. Sur: None. P. Khandelwal: None. R. Starke: None. D. Yavagal: 2; C; Medtronic. E. Peterson: 2; C; Codman, Stryker, Medtronic.

E-027 Matricidal cavernous aneurysms: a multicenter case series
Conclusion Matricidal aneurysms require careful consideration and planning. The restricted anatomy of the cavernous sinus can make successful execution of endovascular interventions difficult. Direct elastic compression of the parent artery does not respond to angioplasty and stenting the way that atherosclerotic stenosis does. Because of this, planning for possible parent vessel sacrifice is important. Abstract E-027 Table 1 Intended Treatments and Outcomes n Intended Treatment Failed Treatment (rate) All Patients 37 10 (27%) Flow Diversion 18 5 (28%) Parent Vessel Sacrifice 11 With Bypass 4 2 (50%) Without Bypass 7 0 ...

E-055 Intracranial angioplasty and stenting with neuroform atlas stent
The SAMMPRIS Trial showed that medical treatment of intracranial stenosis is safer than intracranial angioplasty and stenting (IAS). One of the reasons for the worse outcome with IAS was the occurrence of ipsilateral cerebral hemorrhage, which may be associated with an intracranial exchange maneuver. Newly developed mini intracranial stents may enhance the safety of IAS by obviating the need for this maneuver. We retrospectively evaluated 7 intracranial stenoses (6 patients, 5 men, mean age 57) which were treated with an Atlas stent. In 5 cases there was a high-grade atherosclerotic stenosis which did not optimally respond...

Proatlantal intersegmental artery with internal carotid artery stenosis
A 56-year-old man presented with vertigo of 4 days duration. Neurologic examination was unremarkable. CT angiograms revealed a right internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis and an ipsilateral proatlantal intersegmental artery (PIA, type 1). The PIA arose from the ICA, ran upward, then took a dorsal course, and continued as the vertebral artery, serving as the major contributor of the posterior circulation (figure, A–C). Catheter-based angiogram showed ICA stenosis of 60% (figure, D). He chose drug therapy and remained asymptomatic on follow-up. Such combination can lead to TIA of the vertebrobasilar system; treatment ...

PC164 Fast-Track Thrombolysis for Acute Lower Extremity In-Stent Occlusions: A Novel Approach to Minimize Complications of Standard Thrombolytic Therapy
The role of catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) in the treatment of acute lower extremity ischemia may require prolonged periods of time to achieve successful lysis. Prolonged thrombolysis infusion has demonstrated increased incidence of intracranial bleeding, stroke, and local complications. It is expensive and increases hospital length of stay. To minimize these potentially negative outcomes, we developed a fast track approach (FTA) that included the use of aggressive balloon angioplasty and stenting before the thrombus was completely lysed.

Selective-versus-Standard Poststent Dilation for Carotid Artery Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis EXTRACRANIAL VASCULAR
CONCLUSIONS: Our meta-analysis demonstrated no significant difference in angiographic and clinical outcomes among series that performed standard poststent angioplasty and those that performed poststent angioplasty in only select patients.

MRI audit of complications in intracranial stenosis treated with Wingspan device
Conclusions ICAS treated by Wingspan stenting using pre-placement balloon angioplasty appears safe and effective with a high technical success rate and favorable outcomes. There is a high incidence of asymptomatic DWI hyperintensites post-procedure, but these do not appear to result in long-term sequelae.

Novel balloon-and-aspiration method for cerebral venous sinus thrombosis: dental-floss technique.
Abstract Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis is sometimes fatal. The standard treatment for sinus thrombosis is anticoagulation, but endovascular intervention must be considered when medical treatment fails. Mechanical thrombectomy is usually required when a large clot burden exits. Unfortunately, in sinus thrombosis attributable to a clot burden larger than that in an intracranial artery, the conventional technique used for intraarterial acute stroke intervention with a stent retriever and/or aspiration is not very effective. The authors describe here their endovascular approach to mechanical thrombectomy for sinus ...
