Abstract 225: Rescue Stenting for Posterior Circulation Strokes

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

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.

Impact of Diabetes on Outcomes in Left Main Coronary Revascularization: PCI vs. CABG

Cardiology Update

In a recent study published in Circulation , examined how diabetes influences outcomes in left main coronary revascularization procedures, specifically PCI versus CABG, is crucial for tailored treatment strategies. Circulation. Original article: Gaba P et al. 2024;149:00–00.

Optimal Minimal Stent Area and Impact of Stent Underexpansion in Left Main Up-Front 2-Stent Strategy

Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions

Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 17, Issue 1 , Page e013006, January 1, 2024. BACKGROUND:We previously reported the use of minimal stent area to predict angiographic in-stent restenosis after drug-eluting stent implantation for unprotected left main (LM) disease.

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

Stroke Journal

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. The stent-retriever was re-sheathed into the microcatheter before retrieval. Further prospective data is warranted.

Abstract 097: Un?stumped by Carotid Stump Syndrome: Use of External Carotid Stenting in Preventing Ischemic Stroke

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

Over time, robust anastomoses may develop between the patent ipsilateral external carotid artery and the anterior circulation distal to the site of occlusion. Stenosis of the external carotid artery in such patients can be a source of atheroembolism or hypoperfusion. The patient was treated with aspirin and ticagrelor for 3 months.

Abstract TP299: The Relationship Between Intracranial Arterial Stenosis Rate and Cerebral Perfusion

Stroke Journal

PR was calculated as the ratio of proximal to distal pressure at the stenosis site, indicating post-stenosis blood flow. Arterial stenosis severity was categorized using the WASIDMethod:50%-69% for moderate and 70%-99% for severe. frequency was significantly higher in severe compared to moderate stenosis (P=0.01).
