Fate of the penumbra after mechanical thrombectomy.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In acute stroke, CTP is often used to visualize the endangered brain areas, including the ischemic core and the penumbra. Our goal was to assess the evolution of the infarct after mechanical thrombectomy and to analyze the interventional factors determining the fate of the penumbra. MATERIALS AND METHODS All patients receiving mechanical thrombectomy in the anterior cir...
متن کاملAspiration thrombectomy using the penumbra catheter.
Editor: Thromboembolic diseases are among the most prevalent medical problems today and cause stroke, myocardial ischemia, acute limb ischemia, and pulmonary embolism. Various treatment modalities exist, ranging from medical therapy to endovascular techniques. In the management of a thromboembolic condition causing a threatened limb, common options for treatment include surgical thromboembolect...
متن کاملRole of penumbra mechanical thrombectomy device in acute dural sinus thrombosis
BACKGROUND In dural venous sinus thrombosis (DVST), the mortality ranges 5-30%. Deep venous system involvement and septic dural sinus thrombosis have a higher mortality rate. In acute occlusion, collateral flow may not be established, which may result in significant edema and mass effect. Endovascular interventions may be considered as a treatment option in appropriate high-risk patients with D...
متن کاملPenumbra system: a novel mechanical thrombectomy device for large-vessel occlusions in acute stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Large IC artery occlusion is often resistant to recanalization. We present our initial experience with the PS. MATERIALS AND METHODS Presenting with a severe acute ischemic stroke, the first 27 consecutive patients were considered for thromboaspiration therapy and retrospective data base analysis. All patients received standard thrombectomy treatment as monotherapy or i...
متن کاملReversibility of brainstem damage after a mechanical thrombectomy.
Diffusion-weighted imaging(DWI)has revealed the reversal ofoften sizeable damage due to brainstem lesions in patients treated within 4.5 hours, and this reversibility of damage was strongly associated with early neurological improvement.1 In posterior circulation stroke, the reversibility of damage due to aDWI-detected lesion ispoorlydocumentedafter intravenous thrombolysis2 or intraarterial th...
