Cerebral vasospasm (CV) following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) may lead to morbidity and mortality. Endovascular mechanical angioplasty may be performed if symptomatic CV is refractory to noninvasive medical management. Compliant and noncompliant balloons and manually adjustable mesh may be used in this indication.

A WORLDWIDE ENIGMA STUDY ON EPILEPSY-RELATED GRAY AND WHITE MATTER COMPROMISE ACROSS THE ADULT LIFESPAN.

bioRxiv

March 2024

Multimodal Imaging and Connectome Analysis Laboratory, McConnell Brain Imaging Centre, Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital, McGill University, Montreal, QC, Canada.

Objectives: Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is commonly associated with mesiotemporal pathology and widespread alterations of grey and white matter structures. Evidence supports a progressive condition although the temporal evolution of TLE is poorly defined. This ENIGMA-Epilepsy study utilized multimodal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data to investigate structural alterations in TLE patients across the adult lifespan.

Percutaneous cryoablation of abdominal wall endometriosis: An analysis of 38 patients.

Diagn Interv Imaging

September 2024

Department of Radiology, CHU Toulouse-Purpan Cedex 9, 31059 Toulouse, France.

Article Synopsis
  • This study aimed to assess how effective percutaneous cryoablation is for treating abdominal wall endometriosis nodules in women over a period from May 2020 to July 2023.!* -
  • A total of 38 women participated, with significant pain reduction noted at 3, 6, and 12 months post-treatment, as measured by the visual analog scale (VAS), with 82% reporting effective pain relief at six months.!* -
  • The procedure resulted in a noticeable decrease in the size and activity of the endometriosis nodules on MRI without any major complications, highlighting its effectiveness as a minimally invasive treatment option.!*

Background And Purpose: Cerebral vasospasm (CV) following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) may lead to morbidity and mortality. Endovascular mechanical angioplasty may be performed if symptomatic CV is refractory to noninvasive medical management. Off-label compliant remodelling balloons tend to conform to the course of the vessel, contrary to noncompliant or semi-compliant balloons.

Article Synopsis
  • Vasospasm and delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) significantly contribute to morbidity and mortality following aSAH, but there's a lack of standardized approaches for their diagnosis and management among neurointerventionalists.
  • An anonymous online survey of 201 physicians revealed that daily transcranial Doppler was the most widely used screening method, yet methods of endovascular treatment varied greatly, with only 58% considering it for symptomatic vasospasm.
  • The study underscores the diversity in practices for diagnosing and managing vasospasm within the neurointerventional community and suggests the need for more consistency in treatment protocols.
