Stroke from acute cervical internal carotid artery occlusion: treatment results and predictors of outcome.
BACKGROUND Previous studies have not distinguished patients with acute cervical internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusions from those with intracranial occlusions and often consider them together in the same cohort. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the outcomes of patients with stroke from acute cervical ICA occlusion treated with intravenous thrombolysis or primary endovascular procedures and to identif...

متن کاملEndovascular revascularization of symptomatic acute extracranial internal carotid artery occlusion.
See related article, pages 2426–2430. Acute extracranial internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion resulting in ischemic stroke is different from other forms of acute occlusion of the cerebral blood vessels. The occluded segment of the ICA consists of predominantly atherosclerotic plaque and a superimposed thrombus. The occluded segments in other cerebral blood vessels, such as the middle cerebra...
متن کاملEmergent stenting of extracranial internal carotid artery occlusion in acute stroke has a high revascularization rate.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Acute ischemic stroke attributable to extracranial internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion is frequently associated with severe disability or death. In selected cases, revascularization with carotid artery stenting has been reported, but the safety, recanalization rate, and clinical outcomes in consecutive case series are not known. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed a...
متن کاملInfective Endocarditis Causing Complete Occlusion of Internal Carotid Artery and Presenting As Acute Ischemic Stroke
Cryptococcus is a type of opportunistic encapsulated yeast with a worldwide distribution [1]. Cryptococcosis continues to cause significant morbidity and mortality, especially in immunocompromised patients such as those with AIDS, organ transplants, haematological malignancies, and corticosteroid treatment [2]. Primary cutaneous cryptococcosis (PCC), lesions associated with a skin portal of ent...
