Background: Venous sinus stenting (VSS) is an increasingly performed procedure for the treatment of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) refractory to medical treatment. VSS is typically performed under general anesthesia.
Objective: To present our experience of VSS in patients with IIH performed under conscious sedation.
Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the use of rescue intracranial stenting (RIS) combined with best medical treatment (BMT) versus BMT alone for patients experiencing acute ischemic strokes (AIS) due to large vessel occlusions that do not respond to mechanical thrombectomy (MT).
- - Conducted across 11 French University hospitals, the PISTAR trial involves randomizing 346 adult patients to evaluate the effectiveness of RIS in improving functional outcomes at 3 months and monitoring for complications and adverse events.
- - The primary outcome is measured by the modified Rankin Scale, aiming to determine if RIS improves patient outcomes compared to BMT alone; this is the first randomized trial specifically targeting this issue in acute stroke management.
Background: Middle meningeal artery (MMA) embolization has been proposed as a treatment of chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH). The benefit of the procedure has yet to be demonstrated in a randomized controlled trial. We aim to assess the efficacy of MMA embolization in reducing the risk of CSDH recurrence 6 months after burr-hole surgery compared with standard medical treatment in patients at high risk of postoperative recurrence.

However, evidence is lacking regarding the benefit of MT for more distal occlusions.
Aim: To evaluate the efficacy in terms of good clinical outcome at 3 months of MT associated with the BMT over the BMT alone in AIS related to a distal occlusion.
Background: Neurointerventionists lack guidelines for the use of antithrombotic therapies in their clinical practice; consequently, there is likely to be significant heterogeneity in antithrombotic use between centers. Through a nationwide survey, we aimed to obtain an exhaustive cross-sectional overview of antithrombotic use in neurointerventional procedures in France.
Methods: In April 2021, French neurointerventional surgery centers were invited to participate in a nationwide 51-question survey disseminated through an active trainee-led research collaborative network (the JENI-RC).
