Socioeconomic status as a predictor of post-operative mortality and outcomes in carotid artery stenting vs. carotid endarterectomy

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Background The association between low socioeconomic status (SES) and worse surgical outcomes has become an emerging area of interest. Literature has demonstrated that carotid artery stenting (CAS) poses greater risk of postoperative complications, particularly stroke, than carotid endarterectomy (CEA). 2.30); p  = 0.68].

Abstract WP179: Clinical Outcomes in Acute Stroke in Patients Undergoing Emergency Intracranial Stenting Receiving IV Thrombolysis

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWP179-AWP179, February 1, 2024. Background:Stent-retriever thrombectomy is the first-line therapy for acute stroke with intracranial large vessel occlusion.

Clinical outcomes and aortic remodeling after Castor single-branched stent-graft implantation for type B aortic dissections involving left subclavian artery

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

BackgroundThe left subclavian artery (LSA) can be intentionally covered by a stent graft to acquire adequate landing zones for a proximal entry tear near the LSA during thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). The Castor single-branched stent graft is designed to treat type B aortic dissection (TBAD) to retain the LSA during TEVAR.

Management and outcomes of spontaneous coronary artery dissection: a systematic review of the literature

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

This systematic review of the literature aims to explore outcomes in the patients treated with conservative management vs. invasive strategy. SCAD-PCI revascularization frequently required three or more stents and had residual areas of dissection. SCAD-PCI revascularization was associated with a variable range of PCI failure.
