Abstract WP43: Factors related to major recanalization after second coiling for recanalized aneurysms: a multicenter experience over 20 years during long-term follow-up

Stroke Journal

Objective:Recanalized aneurysms may still recanalize despite a second coiling to prevent rupture. Factors related to recanalization following a second coiling for recanalized aneurysms have not yet been fully explored. months), 72 (38.3%) of 188 recanalized aneurysms developed major recanalization.

Abstract 254: Imaging Findings of Stroke Following Treatment of Ruptured Cerebral Aneurysm Increases Risk of Postoperative Delirium

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

5 ICSS‐ MRI study (International Carotid Stenting Study Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study), indicated that patients with periprocedural hemodynamic depression had decreased cerebral blood flow and increased the risk of new lesions in imaging.6 Additional risk factors (delirium vs no delirium) included a history of stroke (17.5%/7.8%),
