Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

NOVEMBER 9, 2023

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

Introduction:Literature demonstrates that nearly one-third of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO) or severe stenosis arrive at the emergency room with mild symptoms, attributed to favourable collateral status. Patients who underwent endovascular treatment before END were excluded. 1.22,22.18] P=0.026).Conclusions:Higher

Final infarct segmentation included hemorrhagic transformation. ml/h, P = 0.04), a higher likelihood of parent artery stenosis (65% vs. 20.8%, P < 0.001), and increased need for angioplasty or stenting (50% vs. 17%, P < 0.001). The DWI/ADC volume ratio was calculated by dividing DWI volume by ADC 620 10-6 mm2/s volume.

The ipsilateral cervical ICA was occluded in 11 of 20 patients (55%) and nearly‐occluded (degree of stenosis 90‐99%) in 9 of 20 patients (45%). The degree of cervical ICA stenosis following thrombectomy improved from 96.5% The mean NIHSS was 14 (7‐25) and 40% were treated initially with intravenous thrombolytics.

We tested the Plaque-RADS classification in a cohort of patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) and imaged with neck CTAs.Methods:Patients with unilateral anterior circulation ischemic stroke due to ESUS and neck CTAs showing <50% carotid stenosis were retrospectively identified.

We also compared the safety of acute carotid stenting (CAS) in TLs with low ASPECTS.Methods:This prospective multicenter study from 16 centers included patients with anterior circulation TL from 2015-2020. 5.02; p=0.86), petechial hemorrhages (OR: 0.79, CI: 0.10-6.05; Patients were divided into ASPECTS 0-5 and 6-10 groups.

1,2 The National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) cutoff for poor outcomes is lower in BAO compared to anterior circulation large vessel occlusions (LVO) due to the scale’s weighted scoring towards cortical signs.3,4 3,4 To bridge this gap, Alemseged et.al
