Case Report: Stroke Chameleon: Acute Large Vessel Occlusion in the Posterior Circulation With Paroxysmal Sympathetic Hyperactivity as the First Manifestation

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Paroxysmal sympathetic hyperactivity (PSH) is a neurological emergency mostly secondary to traumatic brain injury (TBI). Acute large vessel occlusion (LVO) in the posterior circulation with PSH as the initial manifestation is uncommon.

Risk of Recurrence of Symptomatic Intracranial Atherosclerosis in Posterior Circulation Seen to Be Higher Than That in Anterior Circulation in Long-Term Follow-Up

Frontiers in Neurology, 2020
Background: Intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) is an important cause of ischemic stroke. In Asians, intracranial atherosclerotic disease leads to 33–50% of ischemic events. At present, treatment with medication vs.

Introducing Adam’s Scale of Posterior Stroke (ASPOS): A Novel Validated Tool to Assess and Predict Posterior Circulation Strokes

Brain Sciences, 2021
Background: Assessing the severity of posterior circulation strokes, due to the variety of symptoms, is a significant clinical problem. Current clinimetric scales show lower accuracy in the measurement of posterior stroke severity, compared with that of ...

Stroke etiology is associated with outcome in posterior circulation stroke [PDF]

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2015
AbstractObjectiveStroke research and clinical trials have focused mainly on anterior circulation stroke (ACS). Since clinical characteristics, mechanisms, and outcomes of posterior circulation stroke (PCS) have been reported different from ACS, more PCS studies are required, particularly researching the etiologies, to help establish an optimal ...

Association between kinking of the cervical carotid or vertebral artery and ischemic stroke/TIA

Frontiers in Neurology, 2022
IntroductionKinking of the cervical carotid or vertebral artery is a common structural abnormality in patients with cerebrovascular disease. However, there is no consensus about the relationship between kinking and ischemic stroke/TIA.

Etiology-Related Outcome of Endovascular Therapy in Posterior Circulation Stroke Compared to Anterior Circulation Stroke [PDF]

Journal of Stroke, 2022
Background and Purpose We investigated the impact of stroke etiology on the endovascular treatment (EVT) procedure and clinical outcome of posterior circulation stroke (PCS) patients with EVT compared to anterior circulation stroke (ACS) patients ...

The role of transcranial Doppler ultrasonography in differential diagnosis of vertigo in the Emergency Department

Emergency Care Journal, 2019
Vertigo represents about 4% of access to the Emergency Department (ED). Several conditions, such as general medical illnesses, otovestibular diseases and neurological diseases (including posterior circulation stroke) cause acute vertigo. The incidence of

A Review of Endovascular Treatment for Posterior Circulation Strokes

Neurointervention, 2023
Mechanical thrombectomy for acute posterior circulation strokes (PCSs) is recommended based on evidence from anterior circulation strokes (ACSs). Two recent randomized controlled trials showed that endovascular treatment (EVT) leads to better functional outcomes than those of the best medical care.
