The Correlations of Clinical Outcomes and Vascular Morphology With Infarct Patterns in Middle Cerebral Arterial Occlusion [PDF]
For stroke caused by large vessel occlusion in M1 segment of middle cerebral artery (MCA), a tortuous and long M1 segment of contralateral MCA (cMCA) correlates with the onset of borderzone infarct. In those with a less tortuous cMCA‐M1 segment, a thin and short M1 segment correlates with large infarct.

Association between ischemic stroke and hyperintense plaques detected by high-resolution vessel wall MRI in Japanese patients with intracranial atherosclerotic disease [PDF]
BackgroundConventional MRI sequences are insufficient for the detailed depiction of intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) plaques. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between ischemic events and intracranial atherosclerotic ...

Successful Catheter‐Directed Thrombolysis for a Patient With Intermediate‐High‐Risk Pulmonary Embolism: A Case Report [PDF]
ABSTRACT Acute pulmonary embolism (PE) is a prevalent cardiovascular condition with significant mortality and morbidity. Treatment strategies vary according to risk stratification. While anticoagulation is sufficient for low‐risk patients, high‐risk cases often necessitate systemic thrombolysis (ST) or surgical embolectomy.

Preoperative Embolization of Intracranial Meningiomas
The method and results for preoperative embolization are described in 36 cases with intracranial meningiomas. Embolization materials were injected through a transfemoral catheter, selectively placed in the external carotid artery. Chopped gelfoam served as embolization material in 29 patients and ivalon particles were used in 7 patients.

CRAO in Moyamoya Disease [PDF]
Moyo Moya Disease (MMD) is a rare, progressively stenotic condition of the intracranial arteries with various cerebrovascular manifestations. Ocular manifestations are seen very rarely and there are only few case reports of ocular perfusion anomalies.

Pneumocephalus in a patient with multiple stab wounds
Pneumocephalus is a complication of trauma to the chest and many iatrogenic interventions. It may arise due to systemic air embolism or retrograde cerebral venous air embolism which is an extremely rare complication.

Intracranial fat embolization due to baclofen pump [PDF]
A 38-year-old woman presented with sudden headaches, hyperacusis, and photophobia 3 months after baclofen pump placement for spasticity due to multiple sclerosis. CT demonstrated hypoden- sities within the basilar cisterns and temporal horn of the lateral ventricles (figure, A and B). MRI of the neural …
