Background: Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) is a rare but serious complication after carotid artery revascularization. This study aims to determine the impact of carotid artery stenting (CAS) modality on the incidence, severity and overall outcomes of CHS after carotid revascularization.
Methods: Data from patients who underwent CAS with either distal embolic protection (CAS+DEP) or transcarotid artery revascularization (TCAR) were obtained from the Vascular Quality Initiative (VQI) database 2016-2023.

Objectives: Artificial intelligence (AI) software including Brainomix "e-CTA" which detect large vessel occlusions (LVO) have clinical potential. We hypothesised that in real world use where prevalence is low, its clinical utility may be overstated.
Methods: In this single centre retrospective service evaluation project, data sent to Brainomix from a medium size acute National Health Service (NHS) Trust hospital between 1/3/2022-1/3/2023 was reviewed.

A 69-year-old man with chest pain was diagnosed with acute type B aortic dissection with the entry tear located at distal arch and a distal aortic arch aneurysm. Therefore, we performed debranching thoracic endovascular aortic repair 2 weeks after type B aortic dissection onset. First, the graft was anastomosed to bilateral axillary arteries.

Cervical plexus block (CPB), like other types of regional anesthesia, represents an alternative anesthetic technique in those cases where the performance of general anesthesia (GA) carries an increased risk both for the patient and the outcome of the operative treatment. It has traditionally been used for years in carotid surgery as an alternative to GA, especially due to the possibility of superior monitoring - the awake patient. However, its effectiveness has been proven in other types of neck surgery, primarily in thyroid surgery, neck dissections, tracheostomy, central venous catheter insertion, clavicle surgery, etc.

Objective: To develop a deep learning (DL) model for carotid plaque detection based on CTA images and evaluate the clinical application feasibility and value of the model.
Methods: We retrospectively collected data from patients with carotid atherosclerotic plaques who underwent continuous CTA examinations of the head and neck at a tertiary hospital from October 2020 to October 2022. The model combined ResUNet with the Pyramid Scene Parsing Network (PSPNet) to enhance plaque segmentation.
