Abstract WMP88: Intraarterial Tirofiban Through Deployed Stent-Retriever Bailout: A Potential Alternative to Angioplasty and Stenting

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWMP88-AWMP88, February 1, 2024. Background:In stroke patients undergoing EVT, angioplasty and stenting (A&S) has been described as a bailout technique when thrombectomy fails or intracranial stenosis is suspected. In 4 cases (28.6%) A&S was finally performed.

Abstract WP179: Clinical Outcomes in Acute Stroke in Patients Undergoing Emergency Intracranial Stenting Receiving IV Thrombolysis

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWP179-AWP179, February 1, 2024. Background:Stent-retriever thrombectomy is the first-line therapy for acute stroke with intracranial large vessel occlusion. In cases of stent-retriever thrombectomy failure, rescue stent angioplasty might be the sole option for achieving permanent recanalization.

Abstract TMP58: Impact of DWI-ADC Mismatch on Infarct Progression and Endovascular Thrombectomy Outcomes in Acute Stroke

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATMP58-ATMP58, February 1, 2025. Baseline demographics and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) were similar between groups. However, in hyperacute ischemic infarcts, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) hyperintense lesions can show varying ADC values. P < 0.0001). ml/h vs. 7.5

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Versus Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Patients With Left Main Disease With or Without Diabetes: Findings From a Pooled Analysis of 4 Randomized Clinical Trials

Circulation

Circulation, Ahead of Print. Rates of stroke within 1 year were lower with PCI versus CABG in the entire population, with no heterogeneity based on diabetes status (PintHR=0.51). Rates of all-cause mortality did not differ after PCI versus CABG in those with (84/563 [15.3%] versus 74/541 [14.1%]; hazard ratio, 1.11 [95% CI, 0.82–1.52])
