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

Background Hemodynamic alterations post-embolization of intracranial arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) may cause delayed edema/hemorrhage in brain parenchyma adjacent to the lesion. Objective To ...

Aim This prospective case–control study documents the level of radiation expected during percutaneous balloon compression of the Gasserian ganglion. Methods Percutaneous balloon compression of the ...

Background Stent-assisted coiling (SAC) is a well-established method for treatment of wide-necked intracranial aneurysms. In this multicenter, retrospective case series we evaluated SAC with a new low ...

Background The FRED X flow diverter (FREDX), as the second generation in the FRED series, aims to improve the treatment of cerebral aneurysms. This study compares the efficacy and safety of FREDX with ...

Background Robust collateral circulation has been linked with better reperfusion and clinical outcomes. It remains unclear how individual assessments of collateral circulation may be translated into ...

Background Half of the patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO)-related acute ischemic stroke (AIS) who undergo endovascular reperfusion are dead or dependent at 3 months. We hypothesize that in ...

Introduction Clinical equipoise exists behind bridging intravenous thrombolysis (BT) with endovascular thrombectomy (EVT). Aim of Study To compare the cost-effectiveness of EVT alone vs. BT in acute ...

Background Different studies have demonstrated the benefit of endovascular treatment (EVT) up to 24 hours after acute ischemic stroke (AIS) onset. Recent cohort observational studies suggest that ...

Background Chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH) is common, with an incidence of up to 5/100,000, increasing with age. Surgery carries a recurrence risk of around 20%. Three randomized controlled trials ...

4 King Abdullah International Medical Research Center, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia Background Despite high recanalization rates with endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) for large vessel occlusions, functional ...

Background and purpose The results of the DAWN trial support the benefit of thrombectomy in patients with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (LVO) acute stroke presenting within 6–24 hours ...
