Background: The optimal endovascular management of cervical carotid dissection causing tandem occlusion remains uncertain. We investigated the impact emergent stenting during treatment (EVT) for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in patients with secondary to artery dissection. Methods: This was a analysis treated EVT AIS due occlusive and included retrospective international Antithrombotic Treatment Stroke Prevention Cervical Artery Dissection (STOP-CAD) study. compared without stenting. primary...
Background: Acute ischemic stroke can result from extracranial arterial dissection. The effectiveness and safety of intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) for acute in these cases, particularly those involving large vessel occlusions, are debated. We conducted a systematic review metanalysis to assess the efficacy IVT patients with attributed Methods: This was registered PROSPERO (CRD42024499774). searched MEDLINE (OVID), EMBASE, web Science, SCOPUS inception 03/03/2024.

To describe the case of a 26-year-old man who sustained orthopedic trauma causing multifocal fat emboli throughout cerebrum, cerebellum, and brainstem in addition to spinal cord infarcts at C3–C4 C4–C5 levels.
Background: Management of large vessel occlusion with extensive ipsilateral internal carotid artery (ICA) is unknown. We evaluated patients who underwent emergent stenting (CAS) the ICA mechanical thrombectomy (MT). Methods: retrospectively collected baseline demographic, clinical, and radiographic data on 27 presented as a stroke alert within 24 hours symptoms had (from bifurcation to distal ICA) by computerized tomography angiography from 2019-2023 at our institution. All CAS MT received...
Introduction Hypoplasia of the internal carotid artery (ICA) is incomplete development ICA with presence empty canal. Despite anecdotal data reporting less than a 0.01% developmental anomalies ICA, true incidence remains unknown. Many cases are asymptomatic and thus escape diagnostic detection or appropriate intervention. In 1968, Lie Hage described collateral circulation in through Circle Willis, persistent embryonic vessels, skull base arteries/anastomosis rete mirabile. While systems...
Introduction Middle Meningeal Artery (MMA) embolization has emerged as a qualitative treatment option for subdural hematomas (SDH). Multiple studies have compared MMA to other alternatives, namely surgery, and conservative treatment, with some indicating that was effective safe the two options. This study aimed identify predictors of failures in SDH patients undergoing an embolization. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 52 receiving hematoma management at our institution from 2020 until...
Introduction Anterior choroidal artery (AChA) aneurysms account for 3–5% of intracranial aneurysms, and are often saccular, arising at or near the origin AChA, with distal lesions being exceedingly rare. Contrary to saccular fusiform associated a higher risk rebleeding mortality due their formidable anatomy requiring advanced techniques including bypass, stent‐assisted coiling, and, more recently, flow diversion. While diverters becoming popular, they currently only approved forinternal...
To report a rare cause of CADASIL with point mutation in exon 5 NOTCH 3 gene causing non-cysteine change and its implication.
<h3>Objective:</h3> We present a case of severe neurologic decline secondary to paradoxical cerebral fat embolism (CFE) following bilateral femur fractures after road traffic accident (RTA). <h3>Background:</h3> Fat syndrome (FES) is triad petechial rash, deteriorating mental status and progressive respiratory insufficiency, caused by embolization particles into multiple organs. When neurological signs symptoms predominate, must be kept high in differential. It usually occurs within 24–72...
Introduction Despite technical advances in mechanical thrombectomy (MT), failure to achieve recanalization the posterior circulation remains a significant challenge. Rescue strategies increase MT success have been explored. We demonstrate first successful off‐label use of XIENCE Skypoint™ (Abbott), balloon‐mounted drug‐eluting stent (DES), for intracranial rescue circulation. Methods Case report and endovascular technique. Results A 52‐year‐old man with hypertension, hyperlipidemia, deep...
Introduction: Stroke is the second leading cause of death worldwide, with more than a third these deaths occurring in low-middle income countries, including most Latin America (LATAM). However, stroke care systems LATAM are limited compared to high-income countries. Telestroke an electronic communication system deliver medical services from one site another. Despite optimal results increasing intravenous thrombolysis and endovascular therapy rates, its use scarce. Objective: The study aims...
