Recurrence in Intracranial Atherosclerotic Disease: A Stenosis-based Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases, 2014
Intracranial atherosclerotic disease is a common cause of stroke; its incidence and prevalence vary widely by ethnicity. The aim of our study was to analyze the recurrence rate of cerebrovascular events in patients with symptomatic and asymptomatic intracranial stenosis (IS).We conducted a historical cohort study including all patients admitted in our ...

Association of Dental Infections with Intracranial Atherosclerotic Stenosis

Cerebrovascular Diseases, 2023
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Periodontal disease (PD) and dental caries are oral infections leading to tooth loss that are associated with atherosclerosis and cerebrovascular disease. We assessed the hypothesis that PD and caries are associated with asymptomatic intracranial atherosclerosis (ICAS) in the Atherosclerosis Risk in ...

Intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis: risk factors, diagnosis, and treatment

The Lancet Neurology, 2022
Intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) is one of the most frequent causes of stroke worldwide and confers one of the greatest risks of recurrent stroke compared with other causes of stroke. Asymptomatic ICAS is increasingly recognised as a risk factor for silent brain infarctions and dementia, magnifying the global burden of ICAS.

Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty for Intracranial Atherosclerotic Stenosis

Interventional Neuroradiology, 1998
Eleven patients with symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenotic lesions underwent percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA). Seven patients had stenosis in M1 segment of the middle cerebral artery (MCA), two in the cavernous internal carotid artery, one in M2 segment of the MCA and one in the P2 segment of the posterior cerebral artery ...

Prevalence and Procedural Risk of Intracranial Atherosclerotic Stenosis Coexisting With Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysm

Stroke, 2023
Background: Coexistence of intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) and unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs) is increasingly encountered in clinical practice. This study aims to determine the prevalence of ICAS in patients with UIAs and procedural ischemic risk associated with ICAS when treating UIAs.

Optimal Medical Management of Atherosclerotic Intracranial Stenosis

Stroke
Reducing the high risk of recurrent stroke in patients with symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (sICAS) has proven to be challenging, but aggressive medical management, with intensive risk factor control and antithrombotic therapy, has been shown to be beneficial.

Treatment of intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis.

Reviews in neurological diseases, 2009
Atherosclerotic stenosis of the major intracranial arteries is an important cause of ischemic stroke. Antiplatelet agents and aggressive management of atherosclerotic risk factors, including hypertension, should play a central role in the prevention of vascular events in patients with intracranial arterial stenosis.

Endovascular Therapy for Atherosclerotic Intracranial Arterial Stenosis

JAMA, 2015
Atherosclerotic stenosis of the major intracranial arteries (carotid, middle cerebral, vertebral, and basilar) is one of the most common causes of stroke worldwide and is associated with a particularly high risk of recurrent stroke.1 Despite this, relatively few randomizedclinical trials haveevaluateddifferent therapeutic approaches to prevent stroke ...
