Circulation

Background:Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is associated with high morbidity and mortality and is closely related to diabetes mellitus (DM) and atherosclerosis. Inclusion criteria included adults over 20 years old, consent to participate, and a requirement for angioplasty. 6.97, p=0.024), amputations (HR 2.58, 95% CI 1.02-6.57,

Patterns of Care in the Diagnosis and Management of Intracranial Atherosclerosis?Related Large?Vessel Occlusion: The Rescue?LVO Survey

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

Most respondents (86%) preferred acute treatment of ICAS‐LVO with rescue stenting (RS)±angioplasty. Fear of hemorrhagic complications (74%) was the most compelling reason not to perform RS±angioplasty. Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, Ahead of Print.

Abstract 056: Patterns of Care in the Management of Intracranial Atherosclerosis?related Large Vessel Occlusion–the RESCUE?LVO survey

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

IntroductionIntracranial atherosclerosis‐related large vessel occlusion (ICAS‐LVO) is a common cause of failed mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) [1]. Treatment of ICAS‐LVO with rescue stenting and/or angioplasty has shown promising outcomes, but diagnosing ICAS‐LVO during MT can be challenging [2, 3].
