Abstract 236: Effects of intravenous thrombolysis on thrombectomy outcomes: a systematic review and meta?analysis

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, Volume 3, Issue S2 , November 1, 2023. IntroductionEfficacy and safety of intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) in patients undergoing mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is still debatable. ResultsWe included four randomized controlled trials with 1176 patients.

Parabiosis Discriminates the Circulating, Endothelial, and Parenchymal Contributions of Endogenous Tissue-Type Plasminogen Activator to Stroke

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Ahead of Print. BACKGROUND:Intravenous injection of alteplase, a recombinant tPA (tissue-type plasminogen activator) as a thrombolytic agent has revolutionized ischemic stroke management. However, when associated to tPAWTlittermates, tPANullmice had similar perfusion deficits, but less severe brain infarcts.

Abstract 089: A Case of Complicated Dissection: Vertebral Artery Sacrifice for Recurrent Stroke Prevention

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, Volume 3, Issue S2 , November 1, 2023. 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). hours prior to arrival.

Abstract TP195: Impact of Intracranial Atherosclerotic Disease on Thrombectomy Outcomes in Acute Cerebral Infarction With Large Vessel Occlusion

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP195-ATP195, February 1, 2024. Previous studies have noted that ICAD-related LVOs, compared to embolic occlusions, have longer procedural times and lower successful reperfusion rates. Successful recanalization was defined as Thrombolysis in Cerebral Ischemia score ≥2b.

Abstract TP187: Comparison of Balloon Guide Catheter versus Non-Balloon Guide Catheter for Mechanical Thrombectomy in Distal Medium Vessel Occlusion

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP187-ATP187, February 1, 2024. First pass effect (FPE) was defined as a modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (mTICI) score ≥ 2C after the first pass.Results:A total of 1,508 patients were included, of whom 231 (15.3%) were in the BGC group and 1,277 (84.7%) were in the Non-BGC group.

Abstract 047: Solumbra ‘PINCHING’ technique for medium vessel occlusions (MeVOs): A Single Center Experience

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, Volume 3, Issue S2 , November 1, 2023. Besides various demographic parameters, we collected final recanalization rates with first pass effect [using modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (TICI) score]. aspiration catheter over stent bare wire to “pinch” the primal end of the clot.
