Background and purpose Evidence for endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in patients with very large perfusion-defined infarct core stroke remains limited. Methods We performed a retrospective multicenter ...
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 Intracranial catheter navigation relies on haptic cues interpreted as resistance. However, resistance perception is subjective, limiting standardized training. Prior studies measured forces ...
Background Venous congestion is associated with tissue swelling in multiple organ systems. In idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH), its effects on brain parenchyma are less well defined, but may ...
Background Automated CT perfusion (CTP) software is widely used to select patients with large-vessel occlusion stroke for endovascular thrombectomy (EVT), yet treatment thresholds are often applied as ...
Background Spinal dural arteriovenous fistulas (SDAVFs) are frequently misdiagnosed as inflammatory myelitis, resulting in inappropriate steroid therapy that may trigger acute deterioration. However, ...
Background Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) delay gastric emptying and may increase aspiration risk, but their impact in patients with acute ischemic stroke patients who are ...
Background and aims Acute silent ischemic lesions (ASILs) usually present as diffusion weighted imaging hyperintensity with corresponding apparent diffusion coefficient hypointensity, indicating a ...
Background Rescue stenting (RS) is frequently performed in patients with intracranial atherosclerosis related emergent large vessel occlusion (ICAS-ELVO) when mechanical thrombectomy fails to achieve ...
Background Despite good rates of reperfusion with thrombectomy, rates of moderate to severe post-stroke disability remain high. Even with successful reperfusion, infarct growth occurs, leading to ...
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 ...
Background Endovascular electroencephalography (eEEG) using the EP-01 electrode requires reliable venous access and secure fixation to maintain stable positioning. This technical note aims to describe ...
