Background: Studies have described a first pass effect (FPE) where patients with successful recanalization after one pass experience better outcomes. Few studies have evaluated this in patients with large core infarctions.

Objective: To determine whether patients with large core infarcts undergoing mechanical thrombectomy in which first pass reperfusion is achieved experience improved outcomes compared with those who undergo more than one pass.

Background: Recent studies suggest that the use of adjunctive intraarterial alteplase after mechanical thrombectomy (MT) may improve outcomes; however, there are limited data on the use of intraarterial tenecteplase, a newer-generation lytic, in this acute ischemic stroke patient population. Here, we evaluate the use of intraarterial tenecteplase in the ALLY pilot study (Adjunctive Intraarterial Tenecteplase Following Mechanical Thrombectomy).

Methods: ALLY was a prospective, single-center, nonrandomized pilot study assessing the feasibility and safety of intraarterial tenecteplase up to 4.

The aim of this study was to evaluate patients with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) for the potential reperfusion of pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVM) treated by catheter embolization using coils or embolization plugs and to analyze causes of possible reperfusion in order to further improve treatment. This retrospective study analyzed the data of 345 patients who underwent screening for pulmonary arteriovenous malformations in cases of suspected or confirmed HHT (Osler's disease). Of these, 118 patients with PAVM that underwent catheter embolization and had at least one follow-up study were included in our study and evaluated for potential reperfusion.

Introduction: Cerebral arteriovenous malformations (CAVMs) are rare, with an estimated prevalence of 0.01%. Symptoms typically present in adults under 40, often beginning with hemorrhage in 61% of cases.

The prognostic value of the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in ischemic stroke remains debated due to cohort variability and treatment heterogeneity across studies. This study evaluates the relationship between admission NLR, stroke severity and 90-day outcomes in patients with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (LVO) undergoing early, successful revascularization. A retrospective multicenter study was conducted with 1082 patients treated with mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke.
