Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

Most neurointerventionalists (91%) diagnose ICAS‐LVO after a continued or recurrent occlusion or by the presence of fixed focal stenosis after multiple mechanical thrombectomy attempts. Most respondents (86%) preferred acute treatment of ICAS‐LVO with rescue stenting (RS)±angioplasty.

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]. Most neurointerventionalists (91%) diagnose ICAS‐LVO after a continued or recurrent occlusion or by the presence of fixed focal stenosis (FFS) after multiple MT attempts.

The patient had no hypertension, no tachycardia, a normal hemoglobin, no drug use, no hypotension/shock, no murmur of aortic stenosis. It was opened and stented with a door to balloon time of about 120 minutes (this is long for STEMI, but very short for a high risk Non STEMI). Is it STEMI or NonSTEMI? Is it acute persistent occlusion?

So the patient was taken for emergent cath, showing: Culprit artery: LAD (100% stenosis, TIMI 0) requiring thrombectomy and stent. Queen of Hearts interpretation: Now the cardiologist considered it "STEMI"! There are 2 primary reasons for this low sensitivity.

Marked differences can be seen in the prevalence of coronary artery stenosis at autopsy by age and gender. In 30-39 year old women the rate of coronary stenosis at autopsy was 5/1,545 (0.3%) while 60-69 year old men had a prevalence of 12%, almost 40 times higher. The results of this dataset by age and gender follow.
