Background Half of patients who achieve successful recanalization following endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) for acute ischemic stroke experience poor functional outcome. We aim to investigate whether ...

Background Preliminary clinical studies on the safety and efficacy of the pipeline embolization device (PED) for the treatment of small/medium aneurysms have demonstrated high occlusion rates with low ...

Background The first-pass effect (FPE) is linked to better safety and efficacy prognosis in patients with small- to- moderate sized ischemic infarctions. We evaluated the incidence, prognosis, and ...

Background Flow diverters have revolutionized the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. Nevertheless, some aneurysms fail to occlude with flow diversion. The Prospective Study on Embolization of ...

Background This study assessed caliber and flow changes of covered cortical middle cerebral artery (MCA) branches using the new Caliber-Flow Status Scale (CFSS), postoperative diffusion-weighted ...

Background Little is known about in-stent stenosis (ISS) in patients with aneurysms treated with flow diverter (FD) stents. The reported incidence in the literature varies significantly. Objective The ...

17 Hospital Foch Department of Therapeutic and Interventional Neuroradiology, Suresnes, France Background Endovascular treatment (EVT) failures and early reocclusions in stroke often result from ...

Background and purpose Collateral blood flow to the affected cerebral territory in acute ischemic stroke may modify the effect of intravenous alteplase treatment (IVT) prior to endovascular treatment ...

Background The ability to differentiate intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) related large vessel occlusion (LVO) from embolism is critical for stroke management. We hypothesized that the ...
