AMERICAN JOURNAL OF NEURORADIOLOGY. Mechanical Thrombectomy in Acute Stroke: Prospective Pilot Trial of the Solitaire FR Device while Under Conscious Sedation

S. Soize, K. Kadziolka, L. Estrade, I. Serre, S. Bakchine and L. Pierot

Background and Purpose: The best approach between general anesthesia and conscious sedation to perform mechanical thrombectomy remains unknown. The goal of our study was to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of mechanical thrombectomy under conscious sedation in patients with acute ischemic stroke, using the Solitaire FR device, in a prospective, single-center, single-arm study.

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF NEURORADIOLOGY. Comparison of Stent-Retriever Devices versus the Merci Retriever for Endovascular Treatment of Acute Stroke

E. Broussalis, E. Trinka, W. Hitzl, A. Wallner, V. Chroust and M. Killer-Oberpfalzer

Background and Purpose: Revascularization of large cerebral artery occlusion is the therapeutic goal in stroke therapy. Currently, many recanalization devices are in clinical use. This study compares the outcome parameters, efficacy, and safety of the new generation of stent-retriever devices with the well-established Merci retriever.

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF NEURORADIOLOGY. Canadian Experience with the Pipeline Embolization Device for Repair of Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms

Background and Purpose: Flow-diverting stents, such as the PED, have emerged as a novel means of treating complex intracranial aneurysms. This retrospective analysis of the initial Canadian experience provides insight into technical challenges, clinical and radiographic outcomes, and complication rates after the use of flow-diverting stents for unruptured aneurysms.

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF NEURORADIOLOGY. Prospective Comparison of Angio-Seal versus Manual Compression for Hemostasis after Neurointerventional Procedures under Systemic Heparinization

H.-F. Wong, C.-W. Lee, Y.-L. Chen, Y.-M. Wu, H.-H. Weng, Y.-H. Wang and H.-M. Liu

Background and Purpose: The use of arterial closure device in patients with prolonged high ACT values has not been extensively studied. The aim of this study was to compare the safety and efficacy of an arterial closure device, Angio-Seal, with manual compression in patients on anticoagulation following neurointerventional procedures.

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF NEURORADIOLOGY. Technical Feasibility and Application of Mechanical Thrombectomy with the Solitaire FR Revascularization Device in Acute Basilar Artery Occlusion

P. Mordasini, C. Brekenfeld, J.V. Byrne, U. Fischer, M. Arnold, M.R. Heldner, R. Lüdi, H.P. Mattle, G. Schroth and J. Gralla

Background and Purpose: Acute BAO is a devastating neurological condition associated with a poor clinical outcome and a high mortality rate. Recanalization has been identified as a major prognostic factor for good outcome in BAO. Mechanical thrombectomy using retrievable stents is an emerging treatment option for acute stroke. First clinical trials using stent retrievers have shown promising high recanalization rates. However, these studies mainly included large artery occlusions in the anterior circulation with only a few or single cases of BAO. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate technical feasibility, safety, and efficacy of mechanical thrombectomy using retrievable stent in the treatment of acute BAO.

JACC. The Effect of Dabigatran Plasma Concentrations and Patient Characteristics on the Frequency of Ischemic Stroke and Major Bleeding in Atrial Fibrillation Patients. The RE-LY Trial (Randomized Evaluation of Long-Term Anticoagulation Therapy)

Paul A. Reilly, PhD∗; Thorsten Lehr, PhD†; Sebastian Haertter, PhD†; Stuart J. Connolly, MD§; Salim Yusuf, MD, DPhil§; John W. Eikelboom, MB BS§; Michael D. Ezekowitz, MD, PhD‖; Gerhard Nehmiz, PhD†; Susan Wang, PhD∗; Lars Wallentin, MD, PhD¶

Objectives: The goal of this study was to analyze the impact of dabigatran plasma concentrations, patient demographics, and aspirin (ASA) use on frequencies of ischemic strokes/systemic emboli and major bleeds in atrial fibrillation patients.

NEUROSURGERY. Long-term Follow-up of Blister Aneurysms of the Internal Carotid Artery

Kalani, M. Yashar S. MD, PhD*; Zabramski, Joseph M. MD*; Kim, Louis J. MD‡; Chowdhry, Shakeel A. MD*; Mendes, George A. C. MD*; Nakaji, Peter MD*; McDougall, Cameron G. MD*; Albuquerque, Felipe C. MD*; Spetzler, Robert F. MD*

Background: Blister aneurysms of the internal carotid artery (ICA) are uncommon. There is a paucity of data on the long-term outcomes of patients.

NEUROSURGERY. Results of Stent-Assisted vs Non-Stent-Assisted Endovascular Therapies in 489 Cerebral Aneurysms: Single-Center Experience

Jahshan, Shady MD*,‡; Abla, Adib A. MD*,‡; Natarajan, Sabareesh K. MD, MS*,‡; Drummond, Patrick S. BS§; Kan, Peter MD, MPH*,‡; Karmon, Yuval MD*,‡; Snyder, Kenneth V. MD, PhD*,‡,¶,‖; Hopkins, L. Nelson MD*,‡,¶,‖,**; Siddiqui, Adnan H. MD, PhD*,‡,¶,‖; Levy, Elad I. MD*,‡,¶,‖

Background: Whether the addition of stenting to intracranial aneurysm coil embolization results in benefit in terms of occlusion rates or additional risk in terms of periprocedural adverse events is not clear.

NEUROSURGERY. Transvenous Coil Embolization of an Intraorbital Arteriovenous Fistula: Case Report and Review of the Literature

Williamson, Richard W. MD; Ducruet, Andrew F. MD; Crowley, R. Webster MD; McDougall, Cameron G. MD; Albuquerque, Felipe C. MD

Background and Importance: Purely intraorbital arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs), which are rare vascular malformations that clinically mimic carotid-cavernous fistulas (CCFs), involve a fistula from the ophthalmic artery to 1 of the draining ophthalmic veins. We describe a case of an intraorbital AVF treated with transvenous endovascular coil embolization via the inferior petrosal sinus (IPS) route and review the literature on this rare entity.

NEUROSURGERY. Double Arterial Catheterization Technique for Embolization of Brain Arteriovenous Malformations With Onyx

Renieri, Leonardo MD; Consoli, Arturo MD; Scarpini, Giulia MD; Grazzini, Giulia MD; Nappini, Sergio MD; Mangiafico, Salvatore MD

Background: Arteriovenous malformation (AVM) treatment is multidisciplinary, and the patient may undergo embolization, neurosurgery, or radiosurgery combined. Great improvement in endovascular techniques was provided by the introduction of Onyx with different kinds of approach.

NEUROSURGERY. Transfemoral Transarterial Onyx Embolization of Carotid Body Paragangliomas: Technical Considerations, Results, and Strategies for Complication Avoidance

Kalani, M. Yashar S. MD, PhD; Ducruet, Andrew F. MD; Crowley, R. Webster MD; Spetzler, Robert F. MD; McDougall, Cameron G. MD; Albuquerque, Felipe C. MD

Background: The association of carotid body paragangliomas with neurovascular structures can cause cranial nerve injury and significant intraoperative blood loss. Preoperative embolization may be performed either percutaneously or transarterially.

NEUROSURGERY. Resolution of Diminished Olfactory Sensation After Treatment of Bilateral Ophthalmic Segment Aneurysms With Flow Diversion: Case Report

Kelkar, Prashant S. DO*,§; Chaaban, Mohamad R. MD‡; Walters, Beverly C. MD, MSc*,§; Woodworth, Bradford A. MD‡; Deveikis, John P. MD*; Harrigan, Mark R. MD*

Background and Importance: Olfactory tract dysfunction due to an unruptured intracranial aneurysm is rare. We present a case in which a patient with impaired olfaction related to bilateral internal carotid artery aneurysms experienced subjective and quantitative objective improvement of olfactory sensation after treatment of ophthalmic segment aneurysms with flow diversion.
