Background Recent studies, including the TENSION trial, support the use of endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in acute ischemic stroke with large infarct (Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography ...

Background Several antithrombotic treatments during emergent carotid artery stenting (eCAS) have been proposed, but an appropriate protocol to balance risk–benefit is not well known. Objective To ...

Background Whether rescue intracranial stenting (RIS) should be performed in patients with vertebrobasilar occlusions (VBO) refractory to endovascular mechanical thrombectomy (MT) remains an open ...

Background and purpose Collateral blood flow to the affected cerebral territory in acute ischemic stroke may modify the effect of intravenous alteplase treatment (IVT) prior to endovascular treatment ...

Background Although recently presented randomized trials have failed to prove an overall benefit of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for patients with medium vessel occlusions (MeVOs), questions remain ...

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 ...

17 Hospital Foch Department of Therapeutic and Interventional Neuroradiology, Suresnes, France Background Endovascular treatment (EVT) failures and early reocclusions in stroke often result from ...

Background The ability to differentiate intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) related large vessel occlusion (LVO) from embolism is critical for stroke management. We hypothesized that the ...

Background This study aims to develop an interpretable machine learning model using SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) to predict favorable outcomes based on clinical, imaging, and angiographic data ...

Background In intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS), low fractional flow (FF) may indicate hemodynamic significance. Objective To investigate, using simulation models, whether invasive ...

Background Previous studies suggest that it may be inappropriate to determine treatment strategies solely based on the degree of stenosis for patients with intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) ...

Background Carotid artery web (CW) is an under-recognized cause of cryptogenic stroke, with variability in practice and controversy regarding its optimal management. Due to the lack of society ...
