strokewith intravenous TPA, family decided to go ahead with endovascular thrombectomy, and she was immediately taken for the procedure. The clot was removed within the 8-hour window period, and the prethrombectomy and post-thrombectomy images showed good improvement of right MCA flow (figures 6...
ICA disease will often lead to ischemia in a borderzone between the MCA and ACA territories. Of interest, in a study of extracranial large-artery carotid disease, multiple infarcts were seen in 83%. Patterns of stroke distribution included territorial lesions, often wedge-shaped, without border...
Using data from the Lausanne Stroke Registry, we studied patients with a CT-proven infarction of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) territory that covered at least two of three MCA subterritories (deep, superficial anterior [superior] and posterior [inferior] territory). We compared these patients ...
A 40-year-old woman presented with an ischemic stroke in the territory of the left middle cerebral artery (MCA). Diagnostic work-up disclosed a moderate stenosis of the left carotid siphon and a mildly increased platelet count. Due to aspirin intolerance warfarin was administered. Twelve months ...

This study compared if Virtual Ischemia Maps (VIM) derived from non-contrast DECT of patients with acute ischemic stroke due to large-vessel occlusion (AIS-LVO) are superior to NCCT for ischemic core estimation, compared against reference-standard DWI-MRI. Only patients whose baseline ischemic ...

Large artery atherosclerotic stroke (LAAS) is the most common ischemic stroke (IS) subtype, and microemboli may be clinically important for indicating increased risk of IS. The inflammatory process o...
Although risk-reducing therapies directed against hypertension, dyslipidemia, and smoking have improved clinical outcomes, these approaches have failed to ameliorate the public health impact of myocardial disease and stroke2. Accordingly, there is a need to develop novel treatments that target the ...
It should be noted that these measurements include the length of time from when the patient arrives in the DSA suite to when the patient has left the room, rounded up to the nearest half hour. Additionally, all of our stroke procedures are performed under general anesthesia. We are also ...
