The results of surgery on multiple intracranial aneurysms tha involve the vertebrobasilar circulation are poor, and associated patient mortality remains high. We describe the endovascular treatment of four patients with mutiple aneurysms that involved the posterior intracrancial circulation. Satisfactory occlusion of all aneurysms was achieved by using electrolytically detachable coils, and all patients had a good clinical recovery. Our early experience suggests that endovascular coil occlusion may be a particularly suitable method for treating this high-risk condition.

Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of chocolate balloons in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) and infrapopliteal artery disease, and compare them with conventional balloons.
Methods: This single-center retrospective study included 167 patients with CLTI and infrapopliteal who underwent endovascular intervention with or without chocolate balloons from September 1, 2019 to June 30, 2023. The primary endpoint was amputation-free survival (AFS).

Background And Objectives: Despite achieving ideal reperfusion (eTICI = 3) through endovascular treatment (EVT), some acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients still experience poor outcomes. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tirofiban in AIS patients with ideal reperfusion, focusing on its effects in large artery atherosclerosis (LAA) and cardioembolic (CE) stroke.
Methods: A total of 474 AIS patients from the RESCUE-BT database were included.

Introduction: This study investigates the influence of carotid artery elongation on neurovascular intervention and outcome in acute stroke treatments proposing an easily assessable imaging marker for carotid elongation.
Methods: 118 patients who underwent mechanical thrombectomy for middle cerebral artery occlusions were included. The carotid elongation ratio (CER), center-line artery length to scan's Z-axis, was measured on the affected side in CT-angiographies.

Introduction: Infective thoracic aortic aneurysms are uncommon, especially presenting with haemoptysis.
Case Presentation: We report the case of an 81-year-old male who presented with fever and pleuritic chest pain and was initially misdiagnosed with community-acquired pneumonia. A CT scan later revealed a saccular, ruptured thoracic aortic aneurysm.
