Acute arteriopathies are the etiological factor of 25% of all the cerebral arterial thrombosis cases in childhood; they give way to ischemic strokes which have specific clinical and radiological features; varicella is the etiologic factor in 60% of the cases; favorable outcome is the rule; physiopathology and treatment remain under discussion.

Symptomatic Cervical Carotid Artery Stenosis: Evolving Paradigms in Risk Stratification and Intervention.

Symptomatic carotid disease, characterized by atherosclerotic or non-atherosclerotic internal carotid artery disease with ipsilateral stroke symptoms, represents a critical condition in stroke neurology. This "hot carotid" state carries a high risk of stroke recurrence, with almost one-fourth of the patients experiencing recurrent ischemic events within 2 weeks of initial presentation. The global prevalence of significant carotid stenosis (conventionally defined as ≥50% narrowing) is estimated at around 1.

J Atheroscler Thromb

Department of Neurology, National Cerebral and Cardiovascular Center.
Aim: Branch atheromatous disease (BAD), characterized by the occlusion of perforating branches near the orifice of a parent artery, often develops early neurological deterioration because the mechanisms underlying BAD remain unclear. Abnormal wall shear stress (WSS) is strongly associated with endothelial dysfunction and plaque growth or rupture. Therefore, we hypothesized that computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling could detect differences in WSS between BAD and small-vessel occlusion (SVO), both of which result from perforating artery occlusion/stenosis.

J Matern Fetal Neonatal Med
December 2025
Fetal Medicine Unit, St George's Hospital, London, UK.
Objective: To evaluate whether, in late pregnancy, the cerebral Doppler can identify very small fetuses that are less likely to experience intrapartum compromise (IC).
Material And Methods: This was a retrospective study of 282 singleton pregnancies that underwent an ultrasound scan at 32 + 0- 40 + 6 weeks and were delivered after induction, or spontaneous onset of labor. Very small fetuses were defined as fetuses with estimated weight less than the 3rd centile.
Randomized Clinical Trial of Extending the Time Window of Endovascular Therapy in the Triage of Late Presenting Stroke Beyond 24 h (SKIP-EXTEND): Rationale and Study Protocol.

Department of Neurology, Nippon Medical School.
The therapeutic time window for endovascular therapy in acute stroke patients with large-vessel occlusion was extended to 24 hours from onset. Although a retrospective study showed the efficacy of endovascular therapy beyond 24 hours from the last known well, it remains unclear whether endovascular therapy is effective. Extending the time window of Endovascular therapy in the Triage of Late Presenting Strokes beyond 24 h (SKIP-EXTEND trial) aimed to clarify the efficacy of endovascular therapy compared to the best medical management.

Pediatric patients with moyamoya disease frequently show rapid progression with a high risk of stroke. Indirect revascularization is widely accepted as a surgical treatment for pediatric moyamoya disease, but it does not augment cerebral blood flow immediately, which leaves patients at risk for stroke peri-operatively. This delay in flow augmentation may make adding direct bypass the better option.
