The ‘Slingshot’ technique: balloon-guide assisted tracking of distal systems past tortuosity and ledges in thrombectomy ...

Wide-necked bifurcation aneurysms (WNBAs) make up 26–36% of all brain aneurysms. Treatments for WNBAs pose unique challenges due to the need to preserve major bifurcation vessels while achieving a ...

Background The benefit of best medical treatment including intravenous alteplase (IVT) before mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in patients with acute ischemic stroke and extensive early ischemic changes ...

Background Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) are vascular dilations on cerebral vessels that affect between 1%–5% of the general population, and can cause life-threatening intracranial hemorrhage when ...

Background Performing mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in patients with basilar artery occlusion (BAO) is currently not evidence-based. Objective To compare patients’ outcome, relative merits of achieving ...

Background Evaluating a new endovascular treatment for intracranial aneurysms must not only demonstrate short-term safety and efficacy, but also evaluate longer-term outcomes (eg, delayed ...

Background Radial artery occlusion (RAO) is a relatively common but benign complication following transradial endovascular approaches. Transradial access in the occluded vessel has been described as ...

Background One limitation of the endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms is aneurysm recanalization. The Analysis of Recanalization after Endovascular Treatment of intracranial Aneurysm ...
