Abstract TMP58: Impact of DWI-ADC Mismatch on Infarct Progression and Endovascular Thrombectomy Outcomes in Acute Stroke

Stroke Journal

ml/h, P = 0.04), a higher likelihood of parent artery stenosis (65% vs. 20.8%, P < 0.001), and increased need for angioplasty or stenting (50% vs. 17%, P < 0.001). Follow-up lesion volumes and functional outcomes were similar; however, the mismatch group showed a slower infarct growth rate (3.8 ml/h vs. 7.5

Stroke Journal

The purpose of this study was to compare the outcomes of EVT for ICAD with those of cardiogenic cerebral embolism (CE) based on real-world data from a multicenter, prospective registry study (K-NET registry) involving 40 centers in Japan.Methods:The K-NET study enrolled 3187 EVTs in 2018-2021, of which 358 (11%) were ICAD and 1870 (59%) were CE.

In 2018, he even opened a state of the art lab nicknamed “the Watcher” and was paid $18 million from Medicare in the next 3 years. Dr. Dormu performed a percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty, a mechanical atherectomy, a stenting of the left superficial femoral artery, a mechanical atherectomy of all three tibial vessels.

Drug-Coated Balloon Angioplasty for De Novo Lesions on the Left Anterior Descending Artery

Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions

In-stent restenosis was excluded. In the DCB group, 43 patients (29.2%) were treated with DCB only and 104 (70.8%) with a hybrid approach; DCB length was greater than stent length in 55.1% The DCB group included both patients undergoing DCB-only PCI and those receiving hybrid PCI with DCB and DES combined. versus 83.5%;P=0.036)
