The management of unruptured brain arteriovenous malformation (AVM) patients remains controversial. Furthermore, curative attempts to treat ruptured AVM have not been questioned so far, and there is a lack prospective data on clinical results according treatment modality. Endovascular often used aiming improve the safety or efficacy surgery radiation therapy, but benefits never documented in trial. A care trial context needed evaluate interventions at same time they are practised. TOBAS...
Background and purpose The susceptibility vessel sign ( SVS ) on T2*‐weighted magnetic resonance imaging has been reported in several studies as a negative predictor of early recanalization after intravenous thrombolysis. meaning regarding the results mechanical thrombectomy with stent retrievers was investigated. Methods Susceptibility presence length were studied 153 acute ischaemic stroke patients (82 men; mean ± SD age 59 17 years, baseline National Institutes Health Stroke Scale score...
OBJECTIVE The management of brain arteriovenous malformations (bAVMs) remains controversial. Treatment Brain AVMs Study (TOBAS) was designed to manage patients with bAVMs within a clinical research framework. objective this study trial feasibility, recruitment rates, patient allocation the various groups, and compliance treatment allocation. METHODS TOBAS combines two randomized care trials (RCTs) registry. Designed be all-inclusive, offers interventional versus conservative eligible for...
<h3>BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:</h3> Liquid embolic agents are increasingly used to treat vascular malformations. We sought assess embolization with these by using a dual-lumen balloon catheter in an experimental setting. <h3>MATERIALS METHODS:</h3> Eighteen injections of liquid were performed the rete mirabile swine. 3 methods control agent reflux: 1) balloon-catheter (group A, <i>n</i> = 8); 2) injection after proximal <i>n</i>-BCA plug formation through second microcatheter B, 4); and 3)...
We aimed to determine the safety of intra-arterial Abciximab injection in management thromboembolic complications during endovascular treatment ruptured cerebral aneurysms.In a monocentric consecutive series 783 aneurysms, 42 (5.3%) patients received after aneurysm was secured. Bleeding were registered and dichotomized as follows: new intracranial hemorrhage peripheral bleeding. For each patient, World Federation Neurosurgery (WFNS) subarachnoid (SAH) grade, shunting, clinical outcomes...
OBJECTIVE Dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) are abnormal, acquired connections within the dural leaflets. Their associated symptoms may be mild or severe and related to patient’s venous anatomy. With hypothesis that anatomy determines development of symptoms, authors aimed identify which elements important in major patients with a DAVF. METHODS A multicenter study was performed based on retrospective analysis cerebral angiographies systematic assessment brain drainage pathways (including...
The crucial question - treat or not a brain arteriovenous malformation has been the object of many studies, sometimes contradictory. authors analyse retrospectively, clinically and angiographically, results intra-arterial embolization in treatment 106 patients with malformation. endo- vascular therapy was palliative curative 46% cases, 30% pre-surgery 18% intra- arterial occlusion pre-radiosurgery. In 6% therapeutic protocol included surgery radiosurgery. Cyanocrylate used 89% 10% embolic...
Endovascular coil embolization of cerebral aneurysms is an effective treatment for the prevention aneurysm rebleeding after subarachnoid hemorrhage. It also often used in unruptured aneurysms, but it associated with remnants and recurrences up to 20%-33% patients. We hypothesized that better occlusion rates can be achieved coils larger caliber.The Does Embolization Larger lead Treatment Aneurysms (DELTA) trial investigator-initiated, multicenter, prospective, randomized, controlled clinical...
Spinal pial arteriovenous fistulas (SPAVFs) are rare lesions that present more frequently in young patients. Lesions located on radiculo-pial arteries without involvement of the anterior spinal artery even rarer. SPAVFs may with mass effect, venous congestion or hemorrhage. Most often, treatment is performed either by surgery endovascularly fluid embolic material. Use microcoils has not been reported for this condition. We two cases high-flow patients their early 30 s. One patient presented...
The attempt to repair skin wounds dates back many years. We have observed bone fragments for making needles, hair, fibers, and animal tissues as sutures even applying sensors accelerate the healing process throughout history. Despite all developments, need a qualified professional prior local anesthesia perform suture still represent obstacles. present study aimed create 3D printing pieces containing N42 neodymium magnets be fixed with adhesive tape promote wounds' closure without...
Resumo Objetivo: Revisão da literatura sobre o trauma craniocervical. Métodos: Com base em revisão eletrônica nos dados PubMed, revisões sistemáticas e diretrizes internacionais na língua inglesa. A abrangeu os temas “deslocamento atlanto-occipital”, “fraturas do côndilo occipital”, atlas”, “lesões ligamento transverso”, “instabilidade vertical atlantoaxial traumática” áxis”. Resultado: avaliação utilizando-se de técnicas análise qualidade publicação, eliminando vícios tendenciosidades...
OBJECTIVE: We aimed to systematically review the literature and assess agreement on ASPECTS amongst clinicians involved in acute management of thrombectomy candidates. BACKGROUND: The Alberta Stroke Program Early CT score (ASPECTS) is widely used clinical practice. DESIGN/METHODS: Studies assessing using published 2000-2015 were reviewed. Fifteen raters reviewed scored anonymized scans 30 patients screened local trial during two independent sessions order study intra- interrater agreement....
Objective: to compare vertebroplasty with a control procedure (facet block) Background: for acute fracture is widely offered pain reduction. No good quality randomized evidence exists support its indication and efficacy. Design: The VITTA trial randomized, controlled, single-blinded, cross-over care comparing percutaneous facet block in patients (< 30 days) painful vertebral compression fractures. Inclusion criteria are: adults at least one most two VCFs caudate T4 physical examination...
Background: Until recently, clinical benefits of endovascular stroke treatment remained unproven. Care trials can be used to simultaneously offer yet-to-be validated interventions and verify outcomes. Our aim was implement care trial methodology for patients with severe acute ischemic stroke. Methods: The study offered all considered management in one Canadian hospital. Inclusion criteria were broad: onset symptoms ≤ 5h or at any time the presence clinical-imaging mismatch; suspected...
Os autores relatam o caso clínico de uma criança do sexo masculino, 8 anos, iniciado com diplopia e cefaléia fronto-orbitária esquerda há 4 meses. À admissão, exame neurológico era normal. Submetido à ressonância magnética (RM) crânio, evidenciou-se a presença lesão expansiva na região seio cavernoso fossa média esquerda, sugerindo neurinoma trigêmeo. Realizada craniotomia fronto-temporal exérese parcial da lesão, anatomo-patológico foi compatível diagnóstico cisto ósseo aneurismático...
Os autores apresentam dois pacientes portadores de tumor epidermóide, sendo um da fossa posterior e outro região frontotemporal direita, tratados cirurgicamente. O primeir, do sexo feminino, 58 anos, manifestou-se com o quadro espasmo hemifacial esquerdo longa evolução nevralgia trigeminal sintomática início recente. segundo paciente, masculino, 23 iniciou clínico crises convulsivas, tardio. diagnóstico foi estabelecido por meio tomografia computadorizada, tendo ambos sido submetidos a...
