Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty Improved Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome due to Renovascular Hypertension
A 51-year-old man was admitted to our hospital complaining of preceding throbbing headache and tonic convulsions. Headache and convulsive seizure disappeared and his consciousness recovered to alert within 2 hours after onset. Neurological examination showed no abnormal findings. Laboratory examinations revealed high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (179 mg/dL), renin (42 ng/mL/hour), aldosterone (265 pg/mL), noradrenaline (1031 pg/mL), and dopamine (79 pg/mL). In brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), fluid-attenuated inversion recovery, but not the diffusion-weighted image, showed high signal intensities in...

Summary of Evidence on Early Carotid Intervention for Recently Symptomatic Stenosis Based on Meta-Analysis of Current Risks Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— CEA within 15 days from stroke/transient ischemic attack can be performed with periprocedural stroke risk <3.5%. CAS within the same period may carry a stroke risk of 4.8%. Similar periprocedural risks occur after CEA and CAS performed earlier, within 0 to 7 days. Carotid revascularization can be safely performed within the first week (0–7 days) after symptom onset.

Time From Symptoms to Carotid Endarterectomy or Stenting and Perioperative Risk Brief Reports
Conclusions— Time from symptoms to carotid endarterectomy or carotid artery stenting did not alter periprocedural safety, supporting early revascularization regardless of modality. Clinical Trial Registration— URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT00004732.

Endovascular Thrombectomy for Anterior Circulation Stroke: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— ET improves good outcomes after anterior circulation stroke. ET should be strongly considered for all patients presenting within 6 hours of onset with a stroke affecting a proximal, anterior circulation vessel without a contraindication to ET.

Does the Stenting Versus Aggressive Medical Therapy Trial Support Stenting for Subgroups With Intracranial Stenosis? Brief Reports
Conclusions— The SAMMPRIS results do not provide evidence to support the use of PTAS using the Wingspan stent system compared with medical treatment in any examined subpopulation of patients with symptomatic intracranial stenosis, including those with qualifying event hypoperfusion symptoms.

Enterprise stent for the treatment of symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis: an initial experience of 44 patients
Conclusion: In this retrospective, single-center experience, undersized balloon angioplasty followed by Enterprise stent deployment appears technically feasible with a relatively low rate of complications for the treatment of complex symptomatic ICAS. Prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trials against optimal medical management are warranted.

Thirty-Day Outcome of a Multicenter Registry Study of Stenting for Symptomatic Intracranial Artery Stenosis in China Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— The short-term safety and efficacy of endovascular stenting for patients with severe symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis in China is acceptable. Balloon-mounted stent may have lower degree of residual stenosis than self-expanding stent. Clinical Trial Registration— URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT01968122.

Periprocedural Myocardial Infarction After Carotid Endarterectomy and Stenting: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— The risk of MI after CEA and CAS did not significantly differ. Risk factors for MI are overall similar in both techniques except that men are at lower risk of MI after CAS but not after CEA.

Mediators of the Age Effect in the Carotid Revascularization Endarterectomy Versus Stenting Trial (CREST) Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Plaque length seems to be in the pathway between older age and higher risk of S+D among carotid artery stenting–treated patients, but it mediated only 8% of the age effect excess risk of carotid artery stenting in CREST. Other factors and mechanisms underlying the age effect need to be identified as plaque length will not identify elderly patients for whom stenting is safe relative to endarterectomy.

Treatment reality of internal carotid artery stenosis in Germany : Requirement and reality in international comparison and in light of the current S3 guidelines.
CONCLUSION: Mathematically, an undertreatment of symptomatic and an overtreatment of asymptomatic carotid artery stenoses become apparent. Efforts should be made to achieve inpatient medical treatment conforming to the national S3 guidelines, in particular to adequately reduce the risk of stroke recurrence in patients with atherosclerotic symptomatic carotid artery stenosis.
