Mechanical thrombectomy: Answering unanswered

Annals of Indian Academy of Neurology, 2020
The stroke physician community witnessed a major "breakthrough" in acute stroke therapeutics when the results of the first of the many positive trials, "MR CLEAN," were published showing a significant absolute benefit in favor of mechanical thrombectomy in patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO). Thereafter, the investigators of ESCAPE, SWIFT PRIME,

Endovascular thrombectomy for M2 occlusions: comparison between forced arterial suction thrombectomy and stent retriever thrombectomy [PDF]

Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery, 2016
BackgroundTo date there has been no direct comparison of two frequently used endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) methods (forced arterial suction thrombectomy (FAST) and stent retriever thrombectomy) in M2 occlusions. We review our experiences with EVT performed using FAST and stent retriever thrombectomy in such cases.MethodsThe subjects comprised 41 ...

Coronary Plaque Characteristics Assessed by Optical Coherence Tomography and Plasma Lipoprotein(a) Levels in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is associated with increased cardiovascular risk, but its influence on plaque characteristics at optical coherence tomography (OCT) evaluation is not fully understood. Aims This study seeks to explore the impact of Lp(a) levels on plaque morphology as assessed by OCT in a very high‐risk subset of patients ...

An Algorithm for the Labeling and Interactive Visualization of the Cerebrovascular System of Ischemic Strokes [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
During the diagnosis of ischemic strokes, the Circle of Willis and its surrounding vessels are the arteries of interest. Their visualization in case of an acute stroke is often enabled by Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA). Still, the identification and analysis of the cerebral arteries remain time consuming in such scans due to a large number of ...

Thrombectomy Trials and Implications [PDF]

International Journal of Stroke, 2015
We have now had time to reflect upon the results of the series of thrombectomy trials and their implications are more fully appreciated. There are now a total of seven trials, which have been published or presented, with two more to come. There is certainly enough of a body of evidence to give us a good overview of their potential impact on stroke ...

Autonomous navigation of catheters and guidewires in mechanical thrombectomy using inverse reinforcement learning [PDF]

Int J CARS (2024)
Purpose: Autonomous navigation of catheters and guidewires can enhance endovascular surgery safety and efficacy, reducing procedure times and operator radiation exposure. Integrating tele-operated robotics could widen access to time-sensitive emergency procedures like mechanical thrombectomy (MT).
