We evaluated the impact of IS+ on different efficacy outcome variables: final complete recanalization (eTICI2c-3), total number of passes, procedural duration, and use of bailout technique (angioplasty, stenting, GP2b2a infusion)Results:Of the 200 evaluated patients, 52 (26%) IS+ were found.

Based on these results, Dormu performed a percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty and a mechanical atherectomy and stenting of the right superficial femoral artery and stenting of the right superficial femoral artery. The resulting investigation and sanction to suspend his medical license did not take place until late in 2022.

Angioplasty and stenting typically require the administration of glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors and/or dual‐antiplatelets which may increase the risk of hemorrhage in the setting of recent thrombolysis administration.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective analysis of a prospectively maintained patient registry at a comprehensive stroke center.

In the SAMMPRIS trial, patients who had experienced recent TIA/CVA secondary to 70‐99% ICAS demonstrated an increased risk of recurrent stroke when treated with angioplasty and stenting compared to medical therapy alone [1]. The role of intracranial stenting in ICAS remains uncertain. 1‐year rate of stroke and death in stented patients [5].

Background Pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) is the treatment of choice for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), while balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) is an alternative for inoperable patients. We aimed to compare right ventricular (RV) remodelling and late survival after PEA and BPA.
