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

Stroke Journal

In cases of stent-retriever thrombectomy failure, rescue stent angioplasty might be the sole option for achieving permanent recanalization. Conclusions:The use of rescue stent angioplasty can be considered after unsuccessful stent-retriever thrombectomy, along with intravenous thrombolytic therapy. 10.43, p=0.0325).Conclusions:The

Systematic approach to obtain axillary arterial access for pediatric heart catheterizations

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Overall, 27/36 procedures were interventional, including 6 aortic valvuloplasties, 6 balloon angioplasties, and 15 stenting procedures. Results We identified 30 patients (66.7% males) with a median age of 1.1 months (IQR, 0.3–5.4), 5.4), and a median weight of 3.1 kg kg (IQR, 2.7–3.7). months (IQR, 1.7–5.1). mm (IQR, 2.4–3).

Abstract 231: Rescue Stenting for Failed Mechanical Thrombectomy in Acute Ischemic Stroke:An Analysis of the SVIN Registry

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

Rescue strategies options, including balloon angioplasty alone, rescue stenting (RS) alone, or stent with balloon angioplasty, have shown promise in observational studies and meta‐analyses [3, 4]. The patients were divided into two groups: those who received RS and those who only received MM.

Abstract 225: Rescue Stenting for Posterior Circulation Strokes

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

Rescue treatment with stenting, balloon angioplasty, and/or intraarterial thrombolysis or antiplatelets are often required to treat the underlying stenosis. IntroductionIntracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) is associated with up to 32% of posterior circulation strokes.1

Outpatient vascular care : Good, bad or ugly?

Dr. Anish Koka

Based on these results, Dormu performed a percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty and a mechanical atherectomy and stenting of the right superficial femoral artery and stenting of the right superficial femoral artery. A thrombolysis is performed in the hospital via a catheter. Mr. Rosenberg again presents with leg pain.
