AMERICAN JOURNAL OF NEURORADIOLOGY. Perfusion-Based Selection for Endovascular Reperfusion Therapy in Anterior Circulation Acute Ischemic Stroke

S. Prabhakaran, M. Soltanolkotabi, A.R. Honarmand, R.A. Bernstein, V.H. Lee, J.J. Conners, F. Dehkordi-Vakil, A. Shaibani, M.C. Hurley and S.A. Ansari

Background and Purpose: Controversy exists about the role of perfusion imaging in patient selection for endovascular reperfusion therapy in acute ischemic stroke. We hypothesized that perfusion imaging versus noncontrast CT- based selection would be associated with improved functional outcomes at 3 months.

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF NEURORADIOLOGY. Identification of the Inflow Zone of Unruptured Cerebral Aneurysms: Comparison of 4D Flow MRI and 3D TOF MRA Data

K. Futami, H. Sano, K. Misaki, M. Nakada, F. Ueda and J. Hamada

Background and Purpose: The hemodynamics of the inflow zone of cerebral aneurysms may be a key factor in coil compaction and recanalization after endovascular coil embolization. We performed 4D flow MR imaging in conjunction with 3D TOF MRA and compared their ability to identify the inflow zone of unruptured cerebral aneurysms.

NEUROSURGERY. Cost-Effectiveness of Digital Subtraction Angiography in the Setting of Computed Tomographic Angiography Negative Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Jethwa, Pinakin R. MD*; Punia, Vineet MD‡; Patel, Tapan D. BS*; Duffis, E. Jesus MD*,‡; Gandhi, Chirag D. MD*,§; Prestigiacomo, Charles J. MD, FACS

Background: Recent studies have documented the high sensitivity of computed tomography angiography (CTA) in detecting a ruptured aneurysm in the presence of acute subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The practice of digital subtraction angiography (DSA) when CTA does not reveal an aneurysm has thus been called into question.

NEUROSURGERY. Size Ratio Performance in Detecting Cerebral Aneurysm Rupture Status Is Insensitive to Small Vessel Removal

Lauric, Alexandra PhD; Baharoglu, Merih I. MD; Malek, Adel M. MD, PhD

Background: The variable definition of size ratio (SR) for sidewall (SW) vs bifurcation (BIF) aneurysms raises confusion for lesions harboring small branches, such as carotid ophthalmic or posterior communicating locations. These aneurysms are considered SW by many clinicians, but SR methodology classifies them as BIF.

NEUROSURGERY. Radiation-Induced Complications in Endovascular Neurosurgery: Incidence of Skin Effects and the Feasibility of Estimating Risk of Future Tumor Formation

Peterson, Eric C. MD, MS*; Kanal, Kalpana M. PhD, DABR‡; Dickinson, Renee L. MS‡; Stewart, Brent K. PhD‡; Kim, Louis J. MD*

Background: The incidence of radiation-induced complications is increasingly part of the informed consent process for patients undergoing neuroendovascular procedures. Data guiding these discussions in the era of modern radiation-minimizing equipment is lacking.

NEUROSURGERY. Cognitive Outcome and Clinically Silent Thromboembolic Events After Coiling of Asymptomatic Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms

Kang, Dong-Hun MD, PhD*; Hwang, Yang-Ha MD, PhD‡; Kim, Yong-Sun MD, PhD§; Bae, Geum Ye PhD¶; Lee, Seung Jae MD, PhD‖

Background: Thromboembolic events are the most common complication after coiling of unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs). However, it remains unclear whether these clinically silent ischemic lesions (CSILs) have any clinical significance.

SPRINGER. Stent-assisted coil embolization of intracranial aneurysms using the Solitaire™ AB Neurovascular Remodeling Device: initial and midterm follow-up results

Christin Clajus, Vojtech Sychra, Christoph Strasilla, Joachim Klisch

Introduction: The purpose of this retrospective review was to present our experience in using the Solitaire™ AB Neurovascular Remodeling Device in the stent-assisted treatment of intracranial aneurysms, focusing on midterm results. To date, this is the largest series using the Solitaire™ AB Neurovascular Remodeling Device.

SPRINGER. Biodegradable flow-diverting device for the treatment of intracranial aneurysm: short-term results of a rabbit experiment

Kuizhong Wang, Shaoji Yuan, Xuping Zhang, Qiang Liu, Qisheng Zhong, Rongwei Zhang, Peigang Lu, Jiwen Li

Introduction: One main complication of a flow-diverting device (FD) in treating intracranial aneurysm is stenosis of parent artery (PA) or occlusion of side branches. The use of a biodegradable device may satisfy the need for aneurysm occlusion and eliminate potential complications.

SPRINGER. Variations in the origin of the vertebral artery and its level of entry into the transverse foramen diagnosed by CT angiography

Akira Uchino, Naoko Saito, Masahiro Takahashi, Yoshitaka Okada, Eito Kozawa, Naoko Nishi, Waka Mizukoshi, Reiko Nakajima, Yusuke Watanabe

Introduction: The origin of the vertebral artery (VA) varies, though most VAs enter the transverse foramen (TF) of the sixth cervical vertebra. On computed tomography (CT) angiographic images, we evaluated the prevalence of variations of both VA origin and its level of entry into the TF.

JACC. Local Stiffness of the Carotid and Femoral Artery Is Associated With Incident Cardiovascular Events and All-Cause Mortality. The Hoorn Study

Thomas T. van Sloten, MD∗; Miranda T. Schram, PhD∗; Katja van den Hurk, PhD§; Jacqueline M. Dekker, PhD§; Giel Nijpels, PhD, MD§; Ronald M.A. Henry, PhD, MD∗; Coen D.A. Stehouwer, PhD, MD∗

Objectives: This study sought to investigate the association of local and segmental arterial stiffness with incident cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality.

NEUROSURGERY. Intraoperative Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound for Brain Tumor Surgery

Prada, Francesco MD*; Perin, Alessandro MD, PhD*; Martegani, Alberto MD‡; Aiani, Luca MD‡; Solbiati, Luigi MD§; Lamperti, Massimo MD¶; Casali, Cecilia MD*; Legnani, Federico MD*; Mattei, Luca MD*; Saladino, Andrea MD*; Saini, Marco MD*; DiMeco, Francesco MD*,‡,§,¶,‖

Background: Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is a dynamic and continuous modality that offers a real-time, direct view of vascularization patterns and tissue resistance for many organs. Thanks to newer ultrasound contrast agents, CEUS has become a well-established, live-imaging technique in many contexts, but it has never been used extensively for brain imaging. The use of intraoperative CEUS (iCEUS) imaging in neurosurgery is limited.

NEUROSURGERY. Treatment of Blister-Like Aneurysms With the Pipeline Embolization Device

Chalouhi, Nohra MD*; Zanaty, Mario MD*; Tjoumakaris, Stavropoula MD*; Gonzalez, L. Fernando MD*; Hasan, David MD‡; Kung, David MD*; Rosenwasser, Robert H. MD*; Jabbour, Pascal MD*

Background: Endovascular vessel reconstruction with the pipeline embolization device (PED) has become common practice. Data on the safety and efficacy of the PED in blister-like aneurysms (BLAs) are limited.
