Background: The aim of this study was to investigate differences in the dynamic changes and risk factors of hemodynamic depression (HD) between straight and tapered carotid stenting (SCS and TCS, respectively).

Methods: A total of 148 and 167 patients were included in TCS and SCS groups in this study, respectively. All clinical data were collected and analyzed for differences in HD and primary endpoint events at 12 months.

Results: The SCS procedure had a lower predilation rate and a higher incidence of intra- and postprocedure HD; furthermore, the decline in heart rate in the SCS procedure was higher in patients with intra- and postprocedure HD (P < 0.05). Right stenosis [odds ratio (OR) 1.67] and stent type (ev3) (OR 2.31) were confirmed as risk factors, and older age (> 70 years) was accompanied by a lower risk (OR 0.58; P < 0.05). The SCS procedure had a higher incidence of bradycardia and hypotension after 24 h and a longer duration of hypotension (P < 0.05). Stenosis (> 80%) (OR 1.68), the SCS procedure (OR 1.72), and alcohol intake (OR 2.38) were defined as risk factors. There was no difference in the complications or clinical endpoint events in either procedure, and the restenosis rate was lower in the TCS procedure (1.35% vs 5.42%).

Conclusion: Our results reveal that TCS has a lower incidence of HD and that intra- and postprocedure HD have different manifestations and risk factors.

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the indications and therapeutic efficacy of flow-diverting stents (FDSs) in the management of extracranial carotid artery aneurysms (ECAAs) and dissections.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 18 patients treated for ECAAs with an FDS between 2010 and 2024. Patient demographics, aneurysm characteristics, procedural details, and clinical and radiologic follow-up outcomes were extracted from medical records.

Background: TransCarotid artery revascularization (TCAR) is a safe minimally invasive option for patients with carotid artery stenosis who are not appropriate candidates for carotid endarterectomy (CEA). Many physicians have not yet adopted this technique in the management of carotid artery stenosis. The aim of this study is to explore overall outcomes of carotid revascularization based on physicians' practices in the Vascular Quality Initiative (VQI).

Objective: In recent years, the application of robotic assistance in diagnostic and therapeutic endovascular neurointerventional procedures has gained notable attention. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we aim to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and current indications of robotic-assisted neurointerventions and to assess the degree of robotic assistance and reasons for unplanned manual conversion from robotic assistance.

Methods: We searched Medline, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases following PRISMA guidelines and included studies with ≥ 4 patients reporting on robotic-assisted neurointerventions.

Carotid artery stenosis is a significant cause of ischemic stroke, often necessitating interventions like carotid artery stenting (CAS) to restore adequate blood flow. However, complications like intraprocedural arterial dissection can arise during the procedure. This report presents a case of intraprocedural arterial dissection during CAS using a CASPER Rx stent.

Background: In-stent restenosis (ISR) is a potential severe complication that occurs in patients with severe carotid artery narrowing after carotid angioplasty and stent placement. However, this phenomenon has not been fully studied in the context of interventional treatment for chronic internal carotid artery occlusion (CICAO).

Purpose: To quantify the ISR rate and identify the risk factors leading to this event.
