Article Synopsis
- * This study analyzed 23 patients who underwent stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) after surgery for craniopharyngiomas from 2006 to 2021, showing excellent long-term survival rates of 100% at 10 years and 85.7% at 20 years.
- * SRT proved to be safe and effective, with high local control rates and no significant adverse effects on vision or pituitary function, suggesting that planning for SRT during surgery can lead to better patient

Background: The outcomes of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting (PTAS) in patients with medically refractory post-irradiation stenosis of the vertebral artery (PISVA) have not been clarified.
Aim: This retrospective study evaluated the safety and outcomes of PTAS in patients with severe PISVA compared with their radiation-naïve counterparts (non-RT group).
Methods: Patients with medically refractory severe symptomatic vertebral artery stenosis and undergoing PTAS between 2000 and 2021 were classified as the PISVA group or the non-RT group.
Introduction: Surgical treatment of radio-induced carotid stenosis (RICS) is challenging and burdened by an elevated risk of local complications. Carotid artery stenting (CAS) may be a suitable alternative. The best approach is yet to be defined.

Radiation-induced vasculopathy is a complication of radiation therapy. Most reports regarding post-irradiation ischemic stroke with intracranial tumors are restricted to pediatric cases. Here we report two adult cases of delayed brain infarction due to anterior and middle cerebral artery stenosis or occlusion seemingly caused by focal radiation therapy for malignant glioma.

Electronic address:
Background: Neurobehavioral assessments have been considered as an essential component of preclinical research in ischemic stroke. However, real-time neurobehavioral evaluation is seldom applied during ischemia induction as it is usually accompanied with anesthesia.
New Method: We induced photothrombosis in freely moving mice after one-week recovery from cannula implantation surgeries.
