Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATMP4-ATMP4, February 1, 2025.
BACKGROUND:Multiple pathways and factors are involved in the rupture of intracranial aneurysms. The EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor) has been shown to mediate inflammatory vascular diseases, including atherosclerosis and aortic aneurysm. Similarly, ER-stress inhibition also significantly decreased the rupture rate.
IntroductionIntracranial Aneurysm results from enlargement in the wall of a blood vessel in the brain, especially in the circle of Willis. It represents a high mortality and morbidity rate due to its risk of rupture causing Sub Arachnoid Hemorrhage which is a dangerous and life‐threatening condition. in Kenya and 44.4% in Nigeria.

Introduction:Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) are weak outpouchings on cerebral vessels that can rupture, causing subarachnoid hemorrhage. Conclusion:In this study, we demonstrated that radiomics from the aneurysm wall alone have a low predictive value in identifying symptomatic IAs. The LOO accuracy improved to 85.7% (66.6%
Ruptured aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage accounted for 15.7% (8/51) of all patients. The most common aneurysm location in the present study was MCA bifurcation (52.9%). The median maximal aneurysm diameter was 6.9mm, while the median neck size was 4.4mm. Retreatment was required in 1 aneurysm.
Iron-induced oxidative stress triggers lipid oxidation, inflammation, endothelial cell activation and intracranial aneurysmal formation, growth, and rupture. Subarachnoid hemorrhage from intracranial aneurysm rupture results in significant morbidity and mortality. Mice were fed an iron-restricted diet or a normal diet.
Background:Cerebral vasospasm is a well-known complication after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) and occurs more commonly in younger patients. Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWP139-AWP139, February 1, 2024.
BACKGROUNDAneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a major source of morbidity and mortality, and its management has undergone foundational changes over thepast 2 decades. Patients undergoing surgery to secure an aneurysm were more severely ill through time yet experienced a stable hospital mortality rate.
Introduction18‐36% of all intracranial aneurysms are middle cerebral artery(MCA) bifurcation aneurysms. 1) MCA bifurcation aneurysms have been historically challenging to treat endovascularly given they often have complex morphology and wide necks. Final angiography revealed complete occlusion of the aneurysm.
IntroductionCerebral aneurysms are a rare cause of headaches and visual symptoms. While most unruptured aneurysms are asymptomatic, when symptoms do occur, they are most often headaches, cranial nerve palsies, or bilateral temporal hemianopsia due to compression of surrounding nerves or the optic chiasm.
IntroductionFlow diverters have demonstrated reliable safety and effectiveness for the treatment of selected anterior circulation intracranial aneurysms. However, posterior circulation aneurysms comprise around 10‐15% of all aneurysms, and they frequently present atypical morphological and anatomical characteristics.
Steep intracranial pressure (ICP) rise constitutes a hallmark of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). In the brain parenchyma, we observed minimal infiltration of circulating immune cells, consistent with the effects of aneurysm rupture. Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP397-ATP397, February 1, 2025.
Cerebral AVMs may manifest with new‐onset seizures or intraparenchymal (IPH) or subarachnoid hemorrhages (SAH). Life‐threatening bleeds may occur from the AVM nidus or associated aneurysms. Two large inflow aneurysms, felt to be the rupture site, projecting from the proximal left pericallosal artery were also demonstrated.
IntroductionThe Pipeline Embolization Device (PED) is commonly used for intracranial aneurysm treatment. While its effectiveness for certain types of aneurysms is well‐established, its efficacy for saccular aneurysms remains debatable. The primary endpoint was angiographic complete aneurysm occlusion at long‐term (≥ 12 mo.)
A cerebral aneurysm (CA) is an abnormal artery deformation in the brain that may lead to hemorrhagic stroke, brain damage, coma, and even death when a CA ruptures. Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATMP1-ATMP1, February 1, 2025.

We aim to better understand this risk and its impact on in-hospital outcomes over a longitudinal time period in a large population based sample.Methods:We analyzed the 2000-2019 National Inpatient Sample, selecting for aneurysmal SAH (aSAH).
BackgroundUnruptured cerebral aneurysms (UCAs) have a relatively low prevalence of ≈3%, but detection can prevent devastating consequences of subarachnoid hemorrhage. There were a total of 36 true aneurysms with 4 cases of multiple aneurysms. Overall, the most common locations included internal carotid artery (42%).
Both anticoagulants can be used intraoperatively and postoperatively for DVT prophylaxis in patients undergoing subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) treatment. This nationwide, multicenter, retrospective study provides valuable insights for clinicians on how to prevent and manage HIT in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage.
BACKGROUNDThe optimal endovascular approach for acutely ruptured wide‐neck intracranial aneurysms remains uncertain, and the use of stent‐assisted coiling or flow diversion is controversial due to antiplatelet therapy requirements and potential risks. P= 0.180) and hemorrhagic events (WEB: 3.8% versus BAC: 2.8%;P= versus BAC: 7.5%;P=
Cerebrovascular conditions included brain or spine AVM, cavernous malformation, cerebral aneurysm, Moya-Moya vasculopathy, and/or unexplained hemorrhagic stroke. Individuals with perinatal or isolated arterial ischemic stroke were not included. Median age at testing was 14 years (range 2mo 24 years), and 11 (55%) were male.
Introduction:Flow diversion (FD) is a minimally invasive treatment for unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIA) and is often preferred over open cerebrovascular surgery; however, FD patients are at risk of post-procedural stroke and hemorrhage. Among readmitted AMD patients without confirmed stroke or hemorrhage, 15.4%
Background:Cisternal score (CISCO), which is calculated based on quantification of blood clot in basal cisterns, has been shown to have good accuracy in predicting ventriculoperitoneal shunt requirement in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH).
IntroductionIntracranial aneurysms, both ruptured and unruptured, pose a significant risk to the general population. Cases of unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIA) are estimated to affect roughly 3% of the general population and aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) have an incidence of 8 to 9 people per 100,000.
Background:Pediatric brain arteriovenous malformation (bAVM) patients often present with intracranial hemorrhage. While certain angioarchitectural features, such as aneurysms, deep venous drainage, a single draining vein, venous outflow stenosis, or small nidus size, increase hemorrhage risk, they do not fully predict it.

Introduction:Impact of race on outcomes in the treatment of intracranial aneurysm (IA) remains unclear. Data from 9 centers in the United States, Europe, and Asia for IA patients who undertook endovascular treatment (EVT) or microsurgical treatment (MST) between January 2016 and December 2020 were included for analysis.
Background:Local angiotensin activity is thought to play a critical role in arterial wall homeostasis and remodeling, which contributes to the pathogenesis of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). No difference in rate of SAH was observed in patients with intracerebral aneurysms who were treated by only ACEI antihypertensives [HR:1.03(0.93-1.13),p=0.59]
IntroductionThe optimal endovascular approach for wide‐neck intracranial aneurysms (IAs) during the acute phase of bleeding remains uncertain, and the use of stent‐assisted coiling or flow diversion is controversial due to antiplatelet therapy requirements and potential risks (1, 2).
