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 ...

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, ...

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 Venous sinus stenting (VSS) is recognized as a safe and effective intervention for medically-refractory idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). However, its long-term efficacy remains ...

Background In acute ischemic stroke due to anterior large vessel occlusion (AIS-LVO), accessing the target occluded vessel for mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is sometimes impossible through the femoral ...

Over the past decade the landscape of stroke and neurointerventional research has undergone a tectonic shift. A field once ...

Background Super large bore aspiration catheters (SLACs; inner diameter ≥0.080 inch) have been introduced to enhance efficacy in mechanical thrombectomy for large vessel occlusion (LVO). Although ...

Background Spinal dural arteriovenous fistulas (SDAVFs) are frequently misdiagnosed as inflammatory myelitis, resulting in inappropriate steroid therapy that may trigger acute deterioration. However, ...

Background Venous sinus stenting (VSS) is an established treatment for patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). However, the associated effect of VSS on skull base remodeling has not ...

Chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH) is a common neurosurgical condition with meaningful recurrence after conventional treatment. Middle meningeal artery embolization (MMAE) has emerged as an adjunctive ...
