Background Endovascular embolization of intracranial meningiomas has traditionally served as a preoperative adjunct but has been sporadically described as a standalone treatment. We present the ...

Background Mechanical thrombectomy with stent retrievers is the standard treatment for acute large vessel occlusion stroke, but device induced vessel deformation during retrieval has not been ...

Objectives This study aimed to evaluate whether replacing clopidogrel with ticagrelor in CYP2C19 loss-of-function (LOF) carriers can reduce the incidence of perioperative ischemic events in ...

Faster reperfusion with combined delivery catheter systems in aspiration-first stroke thrombectomy: a multicenter analysis ...

Background While dual antiplatelet therapy (dAPT) is standard of care following carotid artery stenting (CAS), the optimal dAPT regimen and duration has not been established. Methods We canvassed a ...

Background The safety and functional outcome of endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in the very late (VL; >24 hours) time window from ischemic stroke onset remains undetermined. Methods Using data from a ...

Background Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) is an effective treatment for acute ischemic stroke attributable largevessel occlusion. However early neurological deterioration (END) remains a serious ...

Background Preclinical reports suggest that intra-arterial (IA) 20% albumin may have neuroprotective effects. A 3+3 dose-escalation pilot clinical trial preliminarily confirmed the safety and ...

Background Current studies on clot characterization in acute ischemic stroke focus on fibrin and red blood cell composition. Few studies have examined platelet composition in acute ischemic stroke ...

Background Patients with minor stroke and M2 occlusion undergoing best medical management (BMM) may face early neurological deterioration (END) that can lead to poor long-term outcome. In case of END, ...

Introduction Anterior communicating artery (ACoA) aneurysms present a formidable challenge to neurovascular intervention due to their complex and variable anatomy, including the left and right A1 ...
