To identify new factors associated with hemorrhagic transformation (HT) despite early recanalization in patients acute ischemic stroke treated mechanical thrombectomy.We retrospectively included known onset of large vessel occlusion thrombectomy +/- intravenous thrombolysis. Non-contrast CT was performed at 24 12 h from endovascular procedure. We collected data on patient characteristics, risk factors, radiological and treatment features, severity admission discharge, carotid intima-media...
Abstract Introduction : Neurological manifestations related to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection may involve both peripheral and central nervous system, including ischemic stroke cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST). Case Presentation Hereby, we present an adult patient with post-vaccination breakthrough COVID-19 CVST, treated mechanical thrombectomy (MT). The manifested continuous tonic-clonic seizures, after insidious presentation headache left-sided...
Introduction. Spinal cord ischemia (SCI) accounts for less than 1% of all strokes, and mostly affects the anterior cord. The ascending aorta (AA) is rarest site localization aortic thrombi (5%). We report a singular case posterior SCI due to floating thrombus in AA. Case presentation. A 75-year-old male with acute left hemiparesis tactile proprioceptive sensory loss below C5 dermatome (NIHSS 3) presented. MRI showed C4–C6 ischemic lesion, involving lateral hemi-cord. CT angiography 6 mm...

We report a singular case posterior SCI due to floating thrombus in AA. CASE PRESENTATION: A 75-year-old male presented with acute left hemiparesis and tactile proprioceptive sensory loss below seventh thoracic vertebral level (NIHSS 3).
