چکیده

SUMMARY A 69-year-old woman had a symptomatic cervical carotid stenosis coupled with a coincidental unruptured cerebral aneurysm in the carotid distal segment. She underwent endovascular coiling for the aneurysm and then carotid stent placement (CAS) 1 month later. Both lesions were treated successfully and neither complications nor strokes occurred after the procedures. Staged endovascular treatment of coiling and subsequent CAS may be safe for patients with a cervical carotid stenosis coupled with cerebral aneurysms.

Emergent Endovascular Management of Long-Segment and Flow-Limiting Carotid Artery Dissections in Acute Ischemic Stroke Intervention with Multiple Tandem Stents.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Although most cervical dissections are managed medically, emergent endovascular treatment may become necessary in the presence of intracranial large-vessel occlusions, flow-limiting and long-segment dissections with impending occlusion, and/or hypoperfusion-related ischemia at risk of infarction. We investigated the role of emergent endovascular stenting of long-segment c...

ANGIOPLASTY AND STENTING OF CAROTID ARTERY STENOSIS WITH EMBOLIC PROTECTION DEVICES

Background: Carotid artery stenting (CAS) has recently been recommended as an alternative to carotid endarterectomy (CEA) by some clinicians. Objective: This study was designed to evaluate the success rate and in-hospital and 30-day adverse events in our first experiences in Iran for CAS with protection devices, to document our results and guide further use of CAS. Methods: From December 2...

Recent Trends in Neuro-endovascular Treatment for Acute Ischemic Stroke, Cerebral Aneurysms, Carotid Stenosis, and Brain Arteriovenous Malformations

The efficacy of mechanical thrombectomy with stent retrievers for emergent large vessel occlusion has been proved by randomized trials. Mechanical thrombectomy is increasingly being adopted in Japan since stent retrievers were first approved in 2014. An urgent clinical task is to offer structured systems of care to provide this treatment in a timely fashion to all patients with emergent large v...

Coincidental multiple asymptomatic intracranial aneurysms and symptomatic carotid stenosis.

A patient experiencing transient cerebral ischemic attacks (TIAs) was studied angiographically and found to have a symptomatic stenosis of the appropriate internal carotid artery (ICA) and three asymptomatic intracranial aneurysms. A therapeutic approach to this type of problem is discussed in this article.

A novel treatment approach for common carotid artery bifurcation aneurysms

An aneurysm involved in common carotid artery (CCA) bifurcation is a rare clinical condition. There are not enough natural follow-up data, and there is no evidence-based treatment algorithm [1]. An endovascular approach is used to treat CCA bifurcation aneurysms, as it offers some advantages in selected patient populations; nonetheless, closure of the aneurysmal segment in CCA bifurcation using...
