Background and Purpose—A major disadvantage of carotid artery stenting (CAS) compared to carotid endarterectomy is the increased risk of cerebral embolism. Thus, establishing a simple method to discriminate fragile plaques on preoperative routine examination is important. The present study examined whether high-intensity signal (HIS) in the plaque on time-of-flight (TOF) MRA, performed for screening, can discriminate plaque at high risk for cerebral embolism during CAS. 2011; 42: 3132-3137 Published online before print August 25, 2011, doi: 10.1161/STROKEAHA.111.615708.

BACKGROUND: Recognizing an aneurysmal basal rupture using angiographic evaluation is crucial for optimal treatment. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the incidence of a small basal outpouching (the most common angiographic configuration suggesting a basal rupture), the incidence of a ruptured basal outpouching, and the results of surgical and endovascular treatments.

Introduction: We report the experiences of 25 Italian centers, analyzing intra- and periprocedural complications of endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms using Silk (Balt Extrusion, Montmorency, France) and pipeline embolization devices (EV3 Inc, Irvine California).

Background and Purpose—The purpose of this study was to determine the utility of postcontrast susceptibility-weighted MRI (PCSWI) in the evaluation of vascular malformations of the brain (BVM).

BACKGROUND: Although Onyx is widely used to embolize vascular lesions in adults, the safety and efficacy of this liquid embolic agent for use in children are not well studied. OBJECTIVE: To report our experience using Onyx in pediatric patients for a variety of cranial and spinal vascular lesions and tumors to determine its procedural complication rates, types, and clinical consequences and to highlight the indications for and principles of Onyx embolization in pediatric patients.

Introduction: The objective of this study was to analyze the place for the balloon remodeling and stenting in the endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms as well as the impact of their use on the failure and complications rates. Analysis was conducted in a recent 3-year period (2008–2010) in a single center. NeuroradiologyA Journal Devoted to Neuroimaging and Interventional Neuroradiology.

Background and Purpose—Use of intravenous tissue-type plasminogen activator (IV tPA) for acute ischemic stroke is restricted to patients with an international normalized ratio (INR) less than 1.7. However, a recent study showed increased risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage after IV tPA use in patients with oral anticoagulants (OAC) even with an INR less than 1.7. The present study assessed the risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage, clinical outcome, and mortality after intra-arterial therapy (IAT) in patients with and without previous use of OAC.

Background and Purpose—Microanatomy studies reveal that most penetrating branches of middle cerebral artery (MCA) arise from the dorsal–superior surface of the trunk. Using high-resolution MRI, we sought to explore the plaque distribution of MCA atherosclerosis and its clinical relevance in relation to the orifices of penetrating arteries.

Background and Purpose—Unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs) are being identified more frequently and endovascular coil embolization has become an increasingly popular treatment modality.

BACKGROUND: Endovascular therapy is now the preferred treatment option for basilar tip aneurysms (BTAs). OBJECTIVE: To compare the safety and efficacy of common endovascular techniques in the treatment of BTAs.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Recently, the use of stents to assist in the coiling and repair of wide-neck aneurysms has been shown to be highly effective; however, the effect of these stents on the RC of the parent vessel has not been quantified. The purpose of this study was to quantify the effect of intracranial stenting on the RC of the implanted artery using 3D datasets.

Introduction To date, the "monorail snare technique" for the retrieval of entombed microcatheter tips during OnyxTM (ev3, Irvine, CA) embolisation of brain arteriovenous malformations (BAVM) has not been described. We report our experiences and some technical aspects in using this technique for the retrieval of entombed MarathonTM microcatheter (ev3, Plymouth, MN) tips during Onyx embolisation of BAVM treatment.

Background and Purpose—The frequent use of a longer time window for recanalization therapy in patients with basilar artery occlusion (BAO) in daily practice is not supported by any scientific evidence. We investigated the relationship between time to recanalization therapy and functional outcome in BAO with data from the Basilar Artery International Cooperation Study (BASICS).
