Intracranial rescue stenting in the German stroke registry: a propensity score-matched multicenter study

Abstract Background Intracranial stenting (ICS) is used as a rescue strategy in patients with failed reperfusion after endovascular thrombectomy (EVT). However, real-world data on clinical outcomes and safety remain limited. Methods This retrospective analysis of prospectively co...

Identifying Intracranial Atherosclerotic Disease in Emergent Large Vessel Occlusion

Abstract Background Intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) represents a substantial proportion of large vessel occlusion (LVO) strokes refractory to mechanical thrombectomy, yet its diagnosis in the hyperacute setting remains challenging without direct vessel-wall imaging. M...

Incidence and Predictors of Braid Deformations following Aneurysm Treatment with the DERIVO(2heal) Flow Diverter: A Single-Center Experience

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Flow diverters (FDs) are established endoluminal devices for intracranial aneurysm treatment. Concerns have been raised regarding braid deformations (BDs) affecting braid stability. We investigated the incidence and potential predictors of BDs in DERIVO an...
