Introduction The safety and feasibility of intravenous cangrelor use for neuroendovascular procedures needs to be investigated. Aim of Study To investigate safety and feasibility of intravenous ...

Background Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) are often excluded from clinical trials of endovascular thrombectomy (EVT). This study investigated the outcome in these patients. Methods From ...

Background The Contour Neurovascular System (CNS, Stryker, Kalamazoo, MI) has a unique design that allows it to address various aneurysm morphologies, including wide-necked, irregular, and ...

Background Robust venous outflow (VO) profiles, measured by degree of venous opacification on pre-thrombectomy CT angiography (CTA) studies, are strongly correlated with favorable outcomes in patients ...

Background Patients with intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) are prone to stroke recurrence despite aggressive medical treatment. Further assessment of the anatomy and physiology of ICAS is ...

Large vessel occlusion causing acute ischemic stroke is ideally treated with endovascular clot retrieval, which is increasingly being performed via direct aspiration thrombectomy. Successful ...

Background Cerebrospinal fluid-venous fistulas (CSFVF) are a common cause of spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH). Transvenous embolization has emerged as a reliable treatment option. We review ...

Objective To improve early diagnosis of patients who have basilar artery occlusion (BAO) and to provide evidence for treatment decisions based on clinical characteristics, treatment strategies, and ...

Background Predicting the final infarct after an extended time window mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is beneficial for treatment planning in acute ischemic stroke (AIS). By introducing guidance from ...

Results The analysis included 18 330 patients readmitted within 90 days post-MT, with 63.7% readmitted to index hospitals and 36.3% to non-index hospitals. Readmission to the index hospital was not ...

Background This study evaluated the performance of the newer-generation Emboguard Balloon Guide Catheter (EBGC) in treating anterior circulation large vessel occlusions (LVOs). Methods A prospectively ...
