Interv Neuroradiol
March 2023
Article Synopsis
- - A study investigated the occurrence of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in patients who had mechanical thrombectomy for acute stroke, finding it in 5.63% of cases within 24 hours post-surgery.
- - Factors linked to SAH included tandem occlusion, use of a reperfusion pump, intraoperative complications, longer recanalization times, and needing more passes to achieve recanalization.
- - Despite the presence of SAH, the study concluded that it did not negatively impact long-term functional outcomes for these patients.
Interv Neuroradiol
December 2022
Article Synopsis
- Endovascular therapy is now the primary treatment for acute strokes caused by large vessel occlusions (LVO), and incidental vascular issues, such as brain aneurysms, are often found during these procedures.
- Intracranial aneurysms are found in about 4% of the general population, but stroke patients may have a higher prevalence due to shared risk factors.
- A report details three cases of stroke patients with brain aneurysms found during mechanical thrombectomy, highlighting the risks of aneurysm rupture during the procedure and emphasizing the need for interventionalists to manage these complications carefully.
