Carotico-cavernous sinus fistula is a rare anomaly in infancy. We report a 3-month-old boy with progressive symptoms and threatened visual loss requiring urgent therapeutic intervention. Embolization using n-butyl 2-cyanoacrylate was performed with immediate and dramatic results.

Distal Access Catheter Improves Balloon Guide and Stent Retriever Thrombectomy Outcomes in Nonagenarians.

Background And Purpose: The safety and effectiveness of endovascular techniques in elderly patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO) remain controversial. We investigated the angiographic and clinical outcomes of nonagenarians treated with different endovascular techniques using a balloon guide catheter (BGC), distal aspiration catheter (DAC), and/or stent retriever (SR).
Methods: We analyzed the data from the Registry of Combined versus Single Thrombectomy Techniques (ROSSETTI) of consecutive nonagenarian patients with anterior circulation LVO and compared the outcomes of those treated with BGC+noDAC+SR (101-group), BGC+DAC+SR (111-group), and noBGC+DAC+SR (011-group).
Utilizing Quantitative Analysis of CSF Volume from Clinical T1-Weighted MRI to Predict Thrombectomy Outcomes.

Background And Purpose: Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) is the standard for acute ischemic stroke from large vessel occlusion, but post-EVT functional independence varies. Brain atrophy, linked to higher cerebrospinal fluid volume (CSFV), may affect outcomes. Baseline CSFV could predict EVT benefit by assessing brain health.

Objective: Paravisceral aortic lesions present significant challenges for endovascular treatment. This retrospective analysis of consecutively treated patients from April 2017 to June 2021 aimed to analyse the outcome of primary intra-operative embolisation of aortic complicated pseudoaneurysms and gutter channels during parallel graft (PG) repair of paravisceral symptomatic aortic pseudoaneurysms.
Methods: Patients with symptomatic pseudoaneurysms of the paravisceral aorta treated with PGs using chimney or periscope configurations were included.

Septic pelvic thrombophlebitis is defined as an endovascular thrombus of infectious etiology. It is frequently diagnosed only after excluding other more common pathologies. A high level of suspicion should be maintained in the context of a fever refractory to broad-spectrum antibiotics that improves after initiation of systemic anticoagulation.
