The incidence and natural history of large vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke in children is largely unknown. These knowledge gaps limit the uptake reperfusion therapies reduce efficiency pediatric acute pathways.To determine LVO stroke.This retrospective population-based cohort study was conducted between January 2010 December 2019, with a mean (SD) follow-up 37.0 (28.8) months. Admissions from all hospitals state New South Wales, Australia, final diagnosis arterial ischemic (AIS) patients 1...
Pediatric large vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke has a poor natural history. However, uptake of mechanical thrombectomy is hindered by lack clinical trial data in children. A randomized not feasible due to small sample sizes and absence equipoise.
Arteriopathy is common in childhood arterial ischemic stroke (AIS) and predicts recurrence. Currently available vascular imaging techniques mainly image the lumen rather than vessel wall have a limited ability to differentiate among arteriopathies. We aimed investigate value of magnetic resonance imaging-based technique, namely noninvasive (AWI), for distinguishing arteriopathy subtypes consecutive cohort children presenting with AIS.Children confirmed AIS angiography underwent 3-Tesla AWI...
<h3>Importance</h3> Major neurological complications from the embolization of vein Galen malformations (VOGMs) are poorly understood. We provide a detailed analysis contributors to periprocedural and lessons learned. <h3>Objective</h3> To assess rate major following VOGM with procedural strategic contributors. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> This retrospective cohort study was conducted at quarternary referral pediatric hospital (Hospital for Sick Children; Toronto, Ontario, Canada)...
Abstract CNS vascular syndromes are being increasingly recognized and diagnosed in the pediatric population. Their rarity complexity makes diagnosis challenging. These can present a number of different ways clinically radiologically. A systematic method image interpretation often reveals pattern, allowing to be narrowed or further testing directed. Although appearance itself is rarely specific, additional information gleaned from imaging other systems aids pattern recognition. We...
SummaryBackgroundEmerging evidence suggests that endovascular thrombectomy is beneficial for treatment of childhood stroke, but the safety and effectiveness has not been compared with best medical treatment. We aimed to prospectively analyse functional outcomes versus in children intracranial arterial occlusion stroke.MethodsIn this prospective registry study, 45 centres 12 countries across Asia Australia, Europe, North America, South America reported aged between 28 days 18 years presenting...
<h3>BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:</h3> MRI is routinely performed following brain AVM after treatment in children. Our aim was to determine the predictive values of contrast-enhanced MR imaging and TOF-MRA for recurrence children, compared with conventional angiography role 3D rotational angiography–MR fusion these cases. <h3>MATERIALS METHODS:</h3> We included all pediatric patients AVMs during an 18-year period angiographically documented obliteration treatment. Patients underwent 3T imaging,...
Purpose To estimate reference ranges for blood flow volume (BFV) in major splanchnic, thoracoabdominal, and neck vessels by using phase-contrast magnetic resonance (MR) imaging children young adults fasting postprandial states. Materials Methods In this institutional research ethics board–approved prospective study, healthy volunteers underwent MR a state again after standardized meal. BFV values were reported as medians ranges, postmeal to premeal ratios calculated. BFVs divided into two...
Unilateral pulmonary artery agenesis is commonly seen associated with other congenital cardiovascular defects, when it detected early in life, but isolated absence of the a rare entity, usually adulthood. The latter patients are asymptomatic or might present varied non-specific manifestations such as respiratory tract infections and hemoptysis. This report describes imaging findings 67 year old female right artery. embryology clinical condition reviewed.
