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.

Abstract TMP82: First line aspiration versus stent retriever for posterior circulation stroke; A meta-analysis

Stroke Journal

Introduction:Aspiration and stent retriever thrombectomy are the primary approaches for endovascular management of posterior circulation stroke. However, the optimal first-line choice of surgical technique remains unclear. Data analysis was performed using RevMan version 5.4.1, with statistical significance set at p < 0.05.Result:A

Abstract 4144093: Stent-Based Sensor System for Wirelessly Monitoring Arterial Stiffness and Restenosis

Circulation

Circulation, Volume 150, Issue Suppl_1 , Page A4144093-A4144093, November 12, 2024. Although stents are commonly used with over 3 million stents implanted in cardiovascular arteries every year, there have been minimal efforts to integrate sensing functionality with stents.

Predictors of Good Functional Outcomes in Posterior Circulation Stroke After Mechanical Thrombectomy With Stent Retrievers: An Individual Patient?Data Pooled Analysis From the TRACK and NASA Registries

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

Use of intravenous tissue‐type plasminogen activator, hypertension, final Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction 3, and lower baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score were independent predictors of functional outcome.

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. Additionally, 10-15 ml of tirofiban were administered intravenously.

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. Among patients who underwent emergency intracranial stenting, 66 (30.6%) received intravenous thrombolytic treatment. 10.43, p=0.0325).Conclusions:The 10.43, p=0.0325).Conclusions:The
