Abstract WP252: Impact of intracranial stenosis on mechanical thrombectomy outcome

Stroke Journal

Baseline angiograms were reviewed to assess the presence or absence of intracranial stenosis lesions (IS+ Vs IS-) different than the target occlusion. Further research is warranted to explore the diagnostic value of multiple intracranial stenosis in patients undergoing mechanical thrombectomy. p<0.01). minutes; p=0.018).

Subclavian venoplasty for device implantation in a district general hospital: a case series

The British Journal of Cardiology

Subclavian venoplasty is commonly performed for subclavian vein stenosis in patients with long-term dialysis lines or fistulae. Such stenosis may also occur in patients with previously implanted intra-cardiac devices. Venoplasty was performed using peripheral angioplasty balloons after which the device was implanted.
