PICA injury secondary to anterior odontoid screw fixation: Case report of an exceptional complication
CONCLUSION: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of iatrogenic PICA injury in anterior odontoid screw fixation. The patient was well managed in our institution within a multidisciplinary team. We recommend that surgical management of odontoid fractures should be performed in expert centers.PMID:33753130 | DOI:10.1016/j.neuchi.2021.02.015

Effective chemotherapy and targeted therapy supplemented with stereotactic radiotherapy of a patient with metastatic colon cancer following renal transplantation: a case report
ConclusionsSince information is scarce regarding oncological treatment of patients following organ transplantation, data about their oncological treatment is essential. To our knowledge, this is the first case report to describe the successful chemotherapy and targeted therapy supplemented with stereotactic radiotherapy of a posttransplant patient with metastatic colorectal cancer.

Atypical imaging findings of presumed stroke-like migraine attacks after radiation therapy syndrome in the brainstem
AbstractThe authors present an atypical case of presumed stroke-like migraine attacks after radiation therapy (SMART) syndrome in the brainstem. A 29-year-old male, who had been treated with resection and subsequent craniospinal radiation for posterior fossa medulloblastoma 21 years before, presented with subacute progressive left hemiparesis evolving over 4 days. Hematological findings, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and electroencephalogram (EEG) were unremarkable. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a round area of hyperintense FLAIR signal centered within the pons associated with central restricted diffusion, periphera...

Anticoagulant management by low-dose of low molecular weight heparin in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation following hemorrhagic transformation and complicated with venous thrombosis: Five case reports and literature review
For patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) following hemorrhagic infarction (HI)/hemorrhage transformation (HT) and complicated with venous thrombosis, the management of anticoagulation is controversial. Our study intends to explore the safety and effectiveness of using low-dose of low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) to treat NVAF patients with HI (or HT) and complicated with venous thrombosis. Between January 2018 and January 2019, NVAF related acute ischemic stroke patients with HT/HI, hospitalized in the department of neurology or rehabilitation in our hospital, are enrolled retrospectively. Among them,...

Anticoagulant-related intracranial haemorrhage: time to anticoagulant reversal improving but still slower than thrombolysis for ischaemic stroke.
CONCLUSION: Door-to-any-reversal-agent and scan-to-PCC times have improved over time, but they remain significantly longer than IS thrombolysis times. Monitoring of reversal is inadequate, particularly for WRICH receiving PCC. PMID: 33582709 [PubMed - in process]

Ultrarapid Endoscopic-Aided Hematoma Evacuation in Patients with Thalamic Hemorrhage.
In this study, we present our experience in the treatment of patients with thalamic hemorrhage by ultrarapid MIS evacuation. This retrospective analysis enrolled seven patients treated with ultrarapid MIS evacuation of thalamic hemorrhage. Seven patients treated with EVD with similar ICH score were included as match control. Primary endpoints included rebleeding, morbidity, and mortality. Hematoma evacuation rate was evaluated by comparing the pre- and postoperative computed tomography (CT) scans. Glasgow Outcome Scale Extended (GOSE) and modified Rankin Score (mRS) were noted at the 6-month and 1-year postoperative follow...

Imaging-Based Outcome Prediction of Acute Intracerebral Hemorrhage
AbstractWe hypothesized that imaging-only-based machine learning algorithms can analyze non-enhanced CT scans of patients with acute intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). This retrospective multicenter cohort study analyzed 520 non-enhanced CT scans and clinical data of patients with acute spontaneous ICH. Clinical outcome at hospital discharge was dichotomized into good outcome and poor outcome using different modified Rankin Scale (mRS) cut-off values. Predictive performance of a random forest machine learning approach based on filter- and texture-derived high-end image features was evaluated for differentiation of functional ...

Early apixaban therapy after ischemic stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation
ConclusionsSymptomatic HT rates are likely to be low in randomized trials of DOAC initiation post-stroke. Recurrent ischemic stroke may be the major clinical outcome. These data may be used as expected event rates when calculating sample size requirements for future safety/efficacy trials of early versus late DOAC initiation after AF-related stroke.

Is This Contrast? Is This Blood? An Agreement Study on Post-thrombectomy Computed Tomography Scans
Conclusion: Physician judgment for the presence of blood and/or contrast on day-1 post-thrombectomy non-contrast CT scan shows limited inter-observer reliability. Advanced imaging modalities may then be warranted for challenging clinical cases.

Hemichorea in ketotic hyperglycemia with hyperdense striatum mimicking hemorrhagic transformation in a patient using apixaban.
CONCLUSION: Diabetic striatopathy is a rare but treatable disorder and should be considered in patients with poorly controlled diabetes who present with hemichorea. PMID: 33307650 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

NeuroAid II (MLC901) in Haemorrhagic Stroke
Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability. NeuroAid (MLC601), which originates from Traditional Chinese Medicine, comprises herbal and animal components, and has been shown to improve the functional status of patients after ischaemic stroke. The use of NeuroAid II (MLC901), which comprises only the herbal components of MLC601, in haemorrhagic stroke has not been previously reported. Our patient is a 63-year-old male with a significant stroke risk factor of hypertension. He developed visual field defect, aphasia, unilateral weakness, and hemisensory loss. CT scan showed a left thalamic haemorrhage. In addition to an...

High Prevalence of Deep Venous Thrombosis in Non-Severe COVID-19 Patients Hospitalized for a Neurovascular Disease
Conclusion: Despite thromboprophylaxis, systematic bedside DUS showed a high prevalence (38.5%) of asymptomatic DVT in non-severe COVID-19 patients suffering from a neurovascular disease. In the absence of a reliable marker of DVT, we suggest that this non-invasive investigation could be an interesting tool to monitor peripheral venous thrombotic complications in such patients.Cerebrovasc Dis Extra 2020;10:174 –180
