Article Synopsis
- Post-recanalization target vessel re-occlusion (TVR) is a known complication after endovascular thrombectomy (EVT), linked to poor long-term outcomes, but its causes and incidence right after the procedure are not well understood.
- A multicenter study examined 167 patients undergoing EVT for large vessel occlusion, measuring changes in the TICI score immediately after the procedure and 10 minutes later, revealing that 16.2% experienced a score change, with 70% of those worsening.
- The study suggests that neurointerventionalists should conduct angiographic assessments 10 minutes post-EVT to better manage the risk of TVR, considering that only 31% of the entire cohort achieved functional independence at

Article Synopsis
- Head position strongly impacts cerebral venous pressures and intracranial pressures in patients with cerebral venous outflow disorders (CVD).
- In a study of 22 patients, significant increases in superior sagittal sinus (SSS) pressures and lumbar puncture opening pressures were observed when the head was rotated.
- The findings emphasize the importance of using dynamic venography for better diagnosis and treatment of CVD and related intracranial hypertension issues.
