Background and Purpose—Intracranial atherosclerotic disease is associated with a high risk of stroke recurrence. We aimed to determine accuracy of transcranial Doppler screening at laboratories that share the same standardized scanning protocol.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Recanalization is observed in 20–40% of endovascularly treated intracranial aneurysms. To further reduce the recanalization and expand endovascular treatment, we evaluated the safety and efficacy of closed-cell SACE.

Introduction: The possibility of recanalization and the need for retreatment are the most important limitations of intracranial aneurysm embolization. The purpose of the study was to compare the size of aneurysm remnants measured at follow-up with three-dimensional digital subtracted angiography (3D-DSA) and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA).

Background and Purpose—Several retrospective studies suggested that contrast extravasation on CT angiography predicts hematoma expansion, poor outcome, and mortality in primary intracerebral hemorrhage. We aimed to determine the predictive value of contrast extravasation on multidetector CT angiography for clinical outcome in a prospective study.

BACKGROUND: The Pipeline embolization device (PED) is the latest technology available for intracranial aneurysm treatment. OBJECTIVE: To report early postmarket results with the PED.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: A number of thrombectomy devices are currently undergoing clinical evaluation; meanwhile, various novel devices are under investigation. The aims of this study were to quantify flow restoration and the particle size distribution of the effluent pursuant to MET in an in vitro occlusion model.

Introduction: The most significant factors leading to restenosis are yet to be described in the literature. The purpose of our study was to identify the incidence of restenosis in our patients with carotid artery stenting (CAS) for carotid atherosclerotic disease and to identify risk factors that are significantly responsible or related to the restenosis.

Background and Purpose—Early decompressive surgery in patients with malignant middle cerebral artery (MCA) infarction improves outcome. Elevation of intracranial pressure depends on both the space occupying brain edema and the intracranial volume reserve (cerebrospinal fluid [CSF]). However, CSF volume was not investigated as a predictor of malignant infarction so far. We hypothesize that assessment of CSF volume in addition to admission infarct size improves early prediction of malignant MCA infarction.

BACKGROUND: Anatomic diversity among cerebellar arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) calls for a classification that is intuitive and surgically informative. Selection tools like the Spetzler-Martin grading system are designed to work best with cerebral AVMs but have shortcomings with cerebellar AVMs. OBJECTIVE: To define subtypes of cerebellar AVMs that clarify anatomy and surgical management, to determine results according to subtypes, and to compare predictive accuracies of the Spetzler-Martin and supplementary systems.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Carotid artery–related stroke is largely an embolic disease that has been correlated with inflammation, plaque rupture, and thrombus formation in “vulnerable” atherosclerotic plaque. Nevertheless, current guidelines for carotid revascularization in asymptomatic patients rely on the calculation of stenosis for risk assessment, a parameter that has been viewed with increasing skepticism. Intravascular OCT is an imaging technique that offers high axial resolution (10 μm), allowing an unprecedented micron-level assessment of human carotid plaque morphology. This observational article reports the first successful use of the newest iteration of this technology, FDOCT without balloon occlusion to assess human carotid artery disease and carotid stent-vessel interaction in vivo.

Introduction: Endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms has been an effective treatment option. In this paper, we report our experience with the Silk stent (SS) for endovascular treatment of complex intracranial aneurysms and present periprocedural events, immediate results, delayed complications, and imaging and clinical follow-up results.

Background and Purpose—Management of asymptomatic unruptured intracranial aneurysms remains controversial, and recent prospective follow-up studies showed that the rupture rate of small aneurysms is very low. These results are inconsistent with the finding that the majority of ruptured aneurysms in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage are small.

Background and Purpose—It is important to know the costs of hospitalization for patients undergoing endovascular embolectomy so that comparisons can be made with payments to hospitals. 2011; 42: 3271-3273 Published online before print October 6, 2011, doi: 10.1161/STROKEAHA.111.618405.

BACKGROUND: In an era of indocyanine angiography, the routine use of intraoperative angiography (IOA) in the surgical treatment of aneurysms and vascular malformations is controversial. OBJECTIVE: To retrospectively assess the safety and efficacy of IOA and to determine predictors of surgical revision.
