These studies mainly concerned anterior circulation occlusions. All patients with a posterior circulation occlusion were included. Although symptomatic intracranial hemorrhages occurred more often in the IVT group (4.8% Our results are in line with the literature on the anterior circulation.
However, there is limited evidence regarding its safety and efficacy specifically for distal aneurysms of the posterior circulation including posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA), anterior inferior cerebellar artery (AICA), superior cerebellar artery (SCA), and the P2 and P3 segment of the posterior cerebral artery (PCA).
When conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation measures fail to achieve the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in patients with APE, venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) becomes a viable therapeutic option.
IntroductionIntracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) is associated with up to 32% of posterior circulation strokes.1 5 However, most of the existing literature focuses on anterior circulation. Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, Volume 3, Issue S2 , November 1, 2023.
We aimed to determine the prevalence, characteristics, and predictors of hemorrhagic foci in patients with RSSI.Methods:From a prospective, longitudinal study of RSSIs, we recruited patients who underwent multimodal MRI assessments at baseline and approximately one year after stroke onset. versus 75.7%, P = 0.001). versus 75.7%, P = 0.001).

Circulation, Ahead of Print. BACKGROUND:Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are characteristic of hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia. Loss-of-function mutations in the activin receptorlike kinase 1 (Alk1) are linked to hemorrhagic telangiectasia type 2.METHODS:Endothelial-specific
IntroductionFlow diverters have demonstrated reliable safety and effectiveness for the treatment of selected anterior circulation intracranial aneurysms. However, posterior circulation aneurysms comprise around 10‐15% of all aneurysms, and they frequently present atypical morphological and anatomical characteristics.
In stroke, it has been associated with infarct growth, hemorrhagic transformation, and poor outcomes. WMD severity may also indicate poor collateral circulation, compromise of the blood brain barrier, and microvascular dysfunction, predicting higher infarct burden and stroke severity.
Background:The effectiveness and safety of intravenous Tirofiban as an adjunct to endovascular therapy (EVT) in posterior circulation patients with tandem lesions (PCTL) remain uncertain.Methods:This study utilized individual patient data pooled from two multicenter observational studies: the BASILAR and the PERSIST registries.
Background:Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) is the most dreaded complication after reperfusion therapy for acute ischemic stroke. Results:MT in the anterior circulation was associated with a significantly higher risk of sICH as compared with no-MT (RR: 1.46; 95%CI: 1.03-2.07; 2.07; P = 0.037). 1.03; P = 0.079).
Posterior circulation tandem occlusion was defined as stroke due to intracranial vertebral (V4), basilar, or posterior cerebral artery (PCA) occlusions, with tandem steno-occlusive lesion >70% of the extracranial vertebral artery and impaired distal flow or partial filling of the VA from collaterals.
Several CT, CTA, CTP‐based radiological biomarkers of hemorrhagic transformation (HT) were reported.To ConclusionMultimodal CT‐based scoring system may provide highly reliable predictive model of hemorrhagic transformation in acute ischemic stroke. Rates of HT were approximately five times higher in patients with score ≥ 3.ConclusionMultimodal
In patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), it is important to quickly and accurately individualize the treatment decision by quantitatively predicting the hematoma progression using medical information collected on admission. Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP170-ATP170, February 1, 2024.
Background:Increase in mean lesional iron content (≥6%) measurement by QSM and vascular permeability (≥ 40%) assessed by DCEQP MRI have been associated with new bleeding in cavernous angiomas (CA), and are used as monitoring biomarkers in clinical trial of pharmacotherapy in CAs with symptomatic hemorrhage (SH).
Background:Brain arteriovenous malformations (bAVMs) are an important cause of intracranial hemorrhage, seizure, or other neurological deficits. Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP6-ATP6, February 1, 2024. Clinical heterogeneity of bAVM suggests a role for genetic modifiers that may associate with seizure risk.
BackgroundThe Rapid Arterial oCclusion Evaluation (RACE) score can identify patients with anterior circulation large‐vessel occlusion (aLVO) ischemic stroke for transportation to a comprehensive stroke center for endovascular thrombectomy.
Blood circulating CC-motif chemokine 11 (CCL11) increases in rodents and humans with age. To simulate aging with an increase of circulating CCL11 level, we intraperitoneally administered the CCL11 once every 4d for 1mo into the middle-aged mice. Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP196-ATP196, February 1, 2025.
90-day modified Rankin score (mRS) 0-2, mortality and symptomatic hemorrhage were used as secondary outcomes. The primary outcome measure was successful recanalization defined as modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Ischemia (mTICI) score of 2b or higher.
Introduction:Several pre-hospital scales predict ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion; however, these scales often fail to detect atypical endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) cases, including posterior circulation and distal vessel occlusion.
Circulation, Volume 150, Issue Suppl_1 , Page A4140574-A4140574, November 12, 2024. Herein, we present a case of recurrent left atrial myxoma with hemorrhagic, cerebral embolization.Case Report:A 34-year-old male presented with acute onset numbness and tingling of the left arm.
IntroductionPosterior circulation strokes account for 20% of ischemic strokes (1). Optimal management for posterior circulation strokes has been studied less than for anterior circulation strokes (2). Following embolization, repeat imaging showed no new infarcts and no new or worsening hemorrhage.
Veno-venous ECMO can support oxygenation but is not designed to help circulation. Applying ECMO is also associated with substantial multisystem morbidity due to a systemic inflammatory response, hemorrhagic stroke, renal dysfunction, and bleeding, which must be factored into the outcomes.
Circulation, Volume 150, Issue Suppl_1 , Page A4129945-A4129945, November 12, 2024. The rates for hemorrhagic stroke were 0.68%, 0.55%, 0.81%, and 4.90% for the same groups. Background:Data are limited regarding risk of stroke for temporary mechanical circulatory support (tMCS) device treated acute myocardial infarction (AMI).Methods:The
Secondary outcomes included degree of disability (modified Rankin scale range), symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage, any intracranial hemorrhage, and mortality.Results:Among 455 eligible patients, the median age was 68 years, and median Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score was 3 (interquartile range 3-4).
During the waiting period, 166 patients (26.6%) experienced CI, and 17 patients (2.3%) had cerebral hemorrhage. The incidence rates of CI and cerebral hemorrhage were 10.49 No specific risk factors for cerebral hemorrhage during the waiting period were identified. per 1000 person-months, respectively.
This highlights one of the most important complications of Eisenmenger syndrome, that is airway hemorrhage. Airway hemorrhage can occur in those who ascend to high altitude and during air travel. But if you go by the statistics, majority of the hemorrhages occur at sea level or ordinary level of height.
Introduction:Moyamoya is a progressive steno-occlusive cerebrovascular arteriopathy of bilateral anterior circulation. Twenty-three (34%) children had complete occlusion of bilateral anterior circulation without asymmetry at diagnosis. This left-sided predilection was statistically significant (p=0.03).
