Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was conducted to investigate the impact of antiplatelet administration in the periprocedural period on the occurrence of thromboembolic complications (TECs) in patients undergoing treatment using the Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device for intracranial wide-necked bifurcation aneurysms. The primary objective was to assess whether the use of antiplatelets in the pre- and postprocedural phases reduces the likelihood of developing TECs, considering various covariates. METHODS A retrospective multicenter observational study was conducted within the WorldWideWEB Consortium and comprised 38 academic centers with endovascular treatment capabilities. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to determine the association between antiplatelet use and TECs, adjusting for covariates. Missing predictor data were addressed using multiple imputation. RESULTS The study comprised two cohorts: one addressing general thromboembolic events and consisting of 1412 patients, among whom 103 experienced TECs, and another focusing on symptomatic thromboembolic events and comprising 1395 patients, of whom 50 experienced symptomatic TECs. Preprocedural antiplatelet use was associated with a reduced likelihood of overall TECs (OR 0.32, 95% CI 0.19-0.53, p < 0.001) and symptomatic TECs (OR 0.49, 95% CI 0.25-0.95, p = 0.036), whereas postprocedural antiplatelet use showed no significant association with TECs. The study also revealed additional predictors of TECs, including stent use (overall: OR 4.96, 95% CI 2.38-10.3, p < 0.001; symptomatic: OR 3.24, 95% CI 1.26-8.36, p = 0.015), WEB single-layer sphere (SLS) type (overall: OR 0.18, 95% CI 0.04-0.74, p = 0.017), and posterior circulation aneurysm location (symptomatic: OR 18.43, 95% CI 1.48-230, p = 0.024). CONCLUSIONS The findings of this study suggest that the preprocedural administration of antiplatelets is associated with a reduced likelihood of TECs in patients undergoing treatment with the WEB device for wide-necked bifurcation aneurysms. However, postprocedural antiplatelet use did not show a significant impact on TEC occurrence.

Abstract
PURPOSE Spectral computed tomography (CT) enables improved tissue characterization, although virtually all research has focused on contrast-enhanced examinations. We hypothesized that changes in myocardial tissue related to acute myocardial infarction (AMI) might potentially be identified without the need for contrast administration using electron density (ED) imaging. PATIENTS AND METHODS This retrospective observational study involved a small series (n = 15) of patients admitted to our institution with a first AMI without signs of hemodynamic instability and identification of a culprit vessel with invasive coronary angiography during the same admission, who also underwent a noncontrast, low-dose chest CT using a dual-layer spectral CT scanner. Images were assessed in search of dark areas with low density on ED imaging, and the mean percentage ED relative to water (%EDW) was calculated. RESULTS Using a qualitative approach, ED assessment enabled the identification of 11/15 (73%) affected coronary territories, with a sensitivity of 73% (95% CI: 45; 92%) and a specificity of 87% (95% CI: 69; 96%). AMI segments showed significantly lower ED values than the remote myocardium (103.8 ± 0.8 vs 104.3 ± 0.6 %EDW, P < 0.0001), and a threshold below 103.9 %EDW had a sensitivity of 66% and specificity of 79% for the identification of AMI. In a control group of patients without a history of cardiovascular disease, none had areas with focal reduction of ED following the shape of the myocardial wall. CONCLUSIONS In our preliminary series, ED imaging showed the potential to enable the identification of myocardial tissue changes related to AMI without iodinated contrast requirement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The PEDESTRIAN registry demonstrated high rates of complete long-term occlusion and good clinical outcomes among patients with intracranial aneurysms treated with the pipeline embolization device. The pipeline flex embolization device with shield technology was introduced to minimize thromboembolic complications. In this study, we investigated the safety and effectiveness of pipeline embolization device with shield technology among all patients treated for intracranial aneurysms at our center. METHODS This was a single-arm retrospective study of prospectively collected data of patients treated with pipeline embolization device with shield technology at our high-volume center between January 2018-January 2021. The primary efficacy endpoint was complete occlusion as measured by a class 1 Raymond-Roy score at 1-year and 2-year follow-up. The primary safety endpoint was major morbidity and neurological mortality up to 1 year following intervention. RESULTS A total of 328 patients (mean age 56.1 ± 14.7 years; 81.1% female), 80 of whom were previously included in PEDESTRIAN, with 396 aneurysms, were analyzed. A total of 378 devices were deployed, with 93.9% (372/396) of aneurysms requiring only one device. Follow-up angiography was available for 90.2% (296/328) of the procedures after a mean time of 14.0 ± 8.2 months. Complete occlusion was demonstrated for 78.5% (132/168) of aneurysms at 12 months and 90.7% (98/108) at 24 months. The overall rates of major morbidity and neurological mortality after 2 years were 1.5% (5/328) and 0.6% (2/328), respectively. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrate high rates of complete long-term occlusion among patients treated with pipeline embolization device with shield technology. We also observed low rates of mortality and morbidity consistent with fewer thromboembolic complications with pipeline embolization devices with shield technology.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device is an intrasaccular flow disruptor designed for wide-necked bifurcation aneurysms. These aneurysms may require the use of a concomitant stent. The objective of this study was to determine the clinical and radiological outcomes of patients undergoing stent-assisted WEB treatment. In addition, the authors also sought to determine the predictors of a concomitant stent in aneurysms treated with the WEB device. METHODS The data for this study were taken from the WorldWideWEB Consortium, an international multicenter cohort including patients treated with the WEB device. Aneurysms were classified into two groups based on treatment: stent-assisted WEB and WEB device alone. The authors compared clinical and radiological outcomes of both groups. Univariable and multivariable binary logistic regression analyses were performed to determine factors that predispose to stent use. RESULTS The study included 691 intracranial aneurysms (31 with stents and 660 without stents) treated with the WEB device. The adequate occlusion status did not differ between the two groups at the latest follow-up (83.3% vs 85.6%, p = 0.915). Patients who underwent stenting had more thromboembolic (32.3% vs 6.5%, p < 0.001) and procedural (16.1% vs 3.0%, p < 0.001) complications. Aneurysms treated with a concomitant stent had wider necks, greater heights, and lower dome-to-neck ratios. Increasing neck size was the only significant predictor for stent use. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates that there is no difference in the degree of aneurysm occlusion between the two groups; however, complications were more frequent in the stent group. In addition, a wider aneurysm neck predisposes to stent assistance in WEB-treated aneurysms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Woven EndoBridge (WEB) devices have been used for treating wide neck bifurcation aneurysms (WNBAs) with several generational enhancements to improve clinical outcomes. The original device dual-layer (WEB DL) was replaced by a single-layer (WEB SL) device in 2013. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness and safety of these devices in managing intracranial aneurysms. METHODS A multicenter cohort study was conducted, and data from 1,289 patients with intracranial aneurysms treated with either the WEB SL or WEB DL devices were retrospectively analyzed. Propensity score matching was utilized to balance the baseline characteristics between the two groups. Outcomes assessed included immediate occlusion rate, complete occlusion at last follow-up, retreatment rate, device compaction, and aneurysmal rupture. RESULTS Before propensity score matching, patients treated with the WEB SL had a significantly higher rate of complete occlusion at the last follow-up and a lower rate of retreatment. After matching, there was no significant difference in immediate occlusion rate, retreatment rate, or device compaction between the WEB SL and DL groups. However, the SL group maintained a higher rate of complete occlusion at the final follow-up. Regression analysis showed that SL was associated with higher rates of complete occlusion (OR: 0.19; CI: 0.04 to 0.8, p = 0.029) and lower rates of retreatment (OR: 0.12; CI: 0 to 4.12, p = 0.23). CONCLUSION The WEB SL and DL devices demonstrated similar performances in immediate occlusion rates and retreatment requirements for intracranial aneurysms. The SL device showed a higher rate of complete occlusion at the final follow-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the overall rates of braid changes associated with flow diverter (FD) treatment for intracranial aneurysms (IAs). Additionally, we sought to provide an overview of the currently reported definitions related to these complications. METHODS A systematic search was conducted from the inception of relevant literature up to April 2023, encompassing six databases. The included studies focused on patients with IAs treated with FDs. We considered four main outcome measures as FD braid changes: (1) fish-mouthing, (2) device braid narrowing, (3) device braid collapsing, and (4) device braid deformation. The data from these studies were pooled using a random-effects model. RESULTS A total of 48 studies involving 3572 patients were included in the analysis. Among them, 14 studies (39%) provided definitions for fish-mouthing. However, none of the included studies offered specific definitions for device braid narrowing, collapsing, or deformation, despite reporting rates for these complications in six, five, and three studies, respectively. The pooled rates for braid changes were as follows: 3% (95% CI 2% to 4%, I2=27%) for fish-mouthing, 7% (95% CI 2% to 20%, I2=85%) for narrowing, 1% (95% CI 0% to 3%, I2=0%) for collapsing, and 1% (95% CI 1% to 4%, I2=0%) for deformation. CONCLUSION The findings of this study suggest that FD treatment for IAs generally exhibits low rates of fish-mouthing, device braid narrowing, collapsing, and deformation. However, the lack of standardized definitions hinders the ability to compare device outcomes objectively, emphasizing the need for uniform definitions for FD braid changes in future prospective studies on FD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device is a novel intrasaccular flow disruptor tailored for bifurcation aneurysms. We aim to describe the degree of aneurysm occlusion at the latest follow-up, and the rate of complications of aneurysms treated with the WEB device stratified according to rupture status. METHODS Our data were taken from the WorldWideWeb Consortium, an international multicenter cohort including patients treated with the WEB device. Aneurysms were classified into two groups: ruptured and unruptured. We compared clinical and radiologic outcomes of both groups. Propensity score matching (PSM) was done to match according to age, gender, bifurcation, location, prior treatment, neck, height, dome width, daughter sac, incorporated branch, pretreatment antiplatelets, and last imaging follow-up. RESULTS The study included 676 patients with 691 intracranial aneurysms (529 unruptured and 162 ruptured) treated with the WEB device. The PSM analysis had 55 pairs. In both the unmatched (85.8% vs 84.3%, p=0.692) and matched (94.4% vs 83.3%, p=0.066) cohorts there was no significant difference in the adequate occlusion rate at the last follow-up. Likewise, there were no significant differences in both ischemic and hemorrhagic complications between the two groups. There was no documented aneurysm rebleeding after WEB device implantation. CONCLUSION There was no significant difference in both the radiologic outcomes and complications between unruptured and ruptured aneurysms. Our findings support the feasibility of treatment of ruptured aneurysms with the WEB device.

Abstract
Several studies have shown promising outcomes of the Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device for the treatment of wide-necked intracranial bifurcation aneurysms. This is a multicenter study attempts to explore the changes in trends and treatment outcomes over time for WEB embolization of intracranial aneurysms. The WorldWideWEB consortium is a retrospective multicenter collaboration of data from international centers spanning from January 2011 and June 2021, with no limitations on aneurysm location or rupture status. Both bifurcation and sidewall aneurysms were included. These patients were stratified based on treatment year into five treatment intervals: 2011-2015 (N = 66), 2016-2017 (N = 77), 2018 (N = 66), 2019 (N = 300), and 2020-2021 (N = 173). Patient characteristics and angiographic and clinical outcomes were compared between these time intervals. This study comprised 671 patients (median age 61.4 years; 71.2% female) with 682 intracranial aneurysms. Over time, we observed an increasing tendency to treat patients presenting with ruptured aneurysms and aneurysms with smaller neck, diameter, and dome widths. Furthermore, we observed a trend towards more off-label use of the WEB for sidewall aneurysms and increased adoption of transradial access for WEB deployment. Moreover, the proportion of patients with adequate WEB occlusion immediately and at last follow-up was significantly higher in more recent year cohorts, as well as lower rates of compaction and retreatment. Mortality and complications did not differ over time. This learning curve study suggests improved experience using the WEB for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms and has yielded higher rates of adequate occlusion over time.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Bifurcation aneurysms represent an ongoing endovascular challenge with a variety of techniques and devices designed to address them. We present our multicenter series of the pCONUS2 and pCONUS2 HPC devices when treating bifurcation aneurysms. METHODS We performed a retrospective review of our prospectively maintained databases at 3 tertiary neurointerventional centers to identify all patients who underwent coil embolization with the pCONUS2 or pCONUS2 HPC device between February 2015 and August 2021. We recorded baseline demographics, aneurysm data, complications, immediate and delayed angiographic results. RESULTS We identified 55 patients with 56 aneurysms, median age 63 years (range 42-78 years), 67.3% female (n = 37). The commonest aneurysm location was the MCA bifurcation (n = 40, 71.4%). Average dome height was 8.9 ± 4.2 mm (range 3.2-21.5 mm), average neck width 6.4 ± 2.5 mm (range 2.6-14 mm), and average aspect ratio 1.3 ± 0.6 (range 0.5-3.3). The pCONUS2 was used in 64.3% and the pCONUS2 HPC in 35.7%. The procedural technical success rate was 98.2%. Intraoperative complications occurred in 5 cases (8.9%), 4 of which were related to the coils with partial thrombus formation on the pCONUS2 HPC seen in 1 case that was resolved with heparin. In relation to the procedure and treatment of the aneurysm the overall permanent morbidity was 1.8% (n = 1/55) and mortality 0%. Delayed angiographic follow-up (48 aneurysms) at median 12 months postprocedure (range 3-36 months) demonstrated adequate occlusion of 83.4% of aneurysms. CONCLUSION The pCONUS2 and pCONUS2 HPC devices carry a high technical success rate, low complication and retreatment rate, and good rates of adequate occlusion. Larger prospective confirmatory studies are required.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The start of the COVID-19 pandemic forced the implementation of changes in the emergency services care system. Concomitantly, at our institution, we implemented the artificial intelligence (AI) software, RAPID.AI, for image analysis in ischemic stroke (IS). Our objective was to evaluate the impact of the use of AI together with the changes in the triage during the COVID-19 pandemic in patients with stroke due to large vessel occlusion (LVO). METHODS We included patients with IS due to LVO treated with intravenous reperfusion therapy plus endovascular or direct endovascular therapy. RESULTS Two groups were created. Group 1: patients from January 2019 to June 2020; Group 2: patients from July 2020 to December 2021, studied with RAPID.AI. Clinical data and temporal metrics were analyzed. They were compared according to arrival time from 08:00 to 20:00 (daytime) vs 20:01 to 7:59 (night). RESULTS We included 286 patients, 153 in group 1 and 133 in group 2. In group 2, door-image metric and image duration were lower, with shorter door-image onset and door-recanalization times; patients who arrived at night had higher NIHSS and longer time from onset-to-door with lower proportion of functional independence at 90 days (mRS = 2). CONCLUSIONS The use of AI for image analysis along with a shorter door to end of image time allowed to reduce the interval to groin puncture. In the analysis by hours during the pandemic, patients admitted in daytime hours had significantly lower door to image, image time acquisition, and door to recanalization metrics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Collective risk factors such as climate and pollution impact on the risk of acute cardiovascular events, including ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). There is limited data however on the precise temporal and independent association between these factors and STEMI, and the potentially interacting role of government policies against Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), especially for Latin America. METHODS We retrospectively collected aggregate data on daily STEMI admissions at 10 tertiary care centers in the Buenos Aires metropolitan area, Argentina, from January 1, 2017 to November 30, 2020. Daily measurements for temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, wind direction, wind speed, and rainfall, as well as carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide, and particulate matter <10 µm (PM10), were retrieved. Exploratory analyses focused on key COVID-19-related periods (e.g. first case, first lockdown), and Stringency Index quantifying the intensity of government policy response against COVID-19. RESULTS A total of 1498 STEMI occurred over 1430 days, for an average of 0.12 STEMI per center (decreasing from 0.130 in 2018 to 0.102 in 2020, P=0.016). Time series analysis showed that lower temperature and higher concentration of CO and PM10 were all significantly associated with an increased rate of STEMI (all P<0.05), whereas COVID-19 outbreak, lockdown, and stringency of government policies were all inversely associated with STEMI (all P<0.05). Notably, environmental features impacted as early as 28 days before the event (all P<0.05), even if same or prior day associations proved stronger (all P<0.05). Multivariable analysis suggested that maximum temperature (P=0.001) and PM10 (P=0.033) were the strongest predictor of STEMI, even after accounting for COVID-19-related countermeasures (P=0.043). CONCLUSIONS Lower temperature and higher concentrations of CO and PM10 are associated with significant increases in the rate of STEMI in a large Latin American metropolitan area. The reduction in STEMI cases seen during the COVID-19 pandemic is at least in part mediated by improvements in pollution, especially reductions in PM10.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Traditional endovascular treatments of giant intracranial aneurysms are associated with high rates of complications and retreatment. Our objective was to examine the safety and long-term efficacy of the Pipeline Embolization Device for treatment of these aneurysms. METHODS This retrospective study using the IntrePED database included all patients with giant intracranial aneurysms treated with the Pipeline device between July 2008 and February 2013. Efficacy outcomes were stratified by using the Raymond-Roy Occlusion Classification. Predefined safety outcomes included spontaneous rupture of the target aneurysm; ipsilateral intracranial hemorrhage; ischemic stroke; parent artery stenosis; and sustained cranial neuropathy. RESULTS Sixty-six embolizations were performed to treat 63 giant intracranial aneurysms (including 2 ruptured): 49 (77.8%) in the anterior and 14 (22.2%) in the posterior circulation. The median follow-up was 22.4 (0.1-60.5) months. Class I angiographic occlusion was achieved in 72.0% (36/50). The neurological morbidity/mortality rate was 23.8% (15/63), with higher rates in the posterior circulation than in the anterior circulation (22.4% vs. 28.6%). Among seven deaths, five had neurological causes. The procedure-related neurological morbidity and mortality rates were 22.7% (15/66) and 7.6% (5/66), respectively. The spontaneous rupture rate was 4.5% (3/66). Two spontaneous ruptures (1 death), 4/4 postprocedural intracranial hemorrhages, and 6/9 ischemic events occurred within 30 days. In-stent stenosis and new-onset cranial neuropathy were not observed during the angiographic follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS Although procedure-related neurological morbidity/mortality rates were not insignificant, this study confirms the feasibility and long-term efficacy of the Pipeline Embolization Device to treat giant intracranial aneurysms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) after intravenous thrombolysis (IV-tPA) is an effective and cost-saving treatment for stroke due to large vessel occlusion. However, rates of MT use are low in Argentina. This study was designed to estimate the economic value and the budget impact of incorporating MT after thrombolysis, simulating scenarios from Argentinian compulsory social health insurance (Obras Sociales) and private insurances (Empresas de Medicina Prepaga). MATERIALS AND METHODS We adapted a previously published cost-utility and budget-impact (CUA and BIA) model to the Argentinian setting. The CUA was carried out for a lifetime horizon with efficacy inputs from the SWIFT PRIME clinical trial. For seven possible health states, we identified local costs (Argentinian Pesos AR$), utility (QALY), and transition/distribution probabilities (5% discounted rate) and performed deterministic and probabilistic sensitivity analyses. The BIA was based on a six-step approach and a static model for a five-year horizon, and two scenarios (staggered growth and no growth). RESULTS Despite higher incremental procedure costs, IV-tPA and MT was dominant over IV-tPA alone (AR$1,049,062 overall savings). Cost-effectiveness remained in the deterministic sensitivity analysis (100% probability of cost-effectiveness). Increased MT procedure volume resulted in savings in years three (0.96%), four (2.6%), and five (4.4%). By year five, 1,280 patients were treated with MT (versus 480) with overall savings of 1.8% (AR$817,244,417). CONCLUSIONS MT after IV-tPA is cost-effective in Argentina. Savings offset the incremental hospitalization and long-term costs from the third year onwards. With increased, access the superior efficacy of MT mitigates future disability and comorbidity, reducing overall expenses.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device has Food and Drug Administration approval for treatment of wide-necked intracranial bifurcation aneurysms. The WEB device has been shown to result in adequate occlusion in bifurcation aneurysms overall, but its usefulness in the individual bifurcation locations has been evaluated separately only in few case series, which were limited by small sample sizes. OBJECTIVE To compare angiographic and clinical outcomes after treatment of bifurcation aneurysms at various locations, including anterior communicating artery (AComA), anterior cerebral artery (ACA) bifurcation distal to AComA, basilar tip, internal carotid artery (ICA) bifurcation, and middle cerebral artery (MCA) bifurcation aneurysms using the WEB device. METHODS A retrospective cohort analysis was conducted at 22 academic institutions worldwide to compare treatment outcomes of patients with intracranial bifurcation aneurysms using the WEB device. Data include patient and aneurysm characteristics, procedural details, angiographic and functional outcomes, and complications. RESULTS A total of 572 aneurysms were included. MCA (36%), AComA (35.7%), and basilar tip (18.9%) aneurysms were most common. The rate of adequate aneurysm occlusion was significantly higher for basilar tip (91.6%) and ICA bifurcation (96.7%) aneurysms and lower for ACA bifurcation (71.4%) and AComA (80.6%) aneurysms (p=0.04). CONCLUSION To our knowledge, this is the most extensive study to date that compares the treatment of different intracranial bifurcation aneurysms using the WEB device. Basilar tip and ICA bifurcation aneurysms showed significantly higher rates of aneurysm occlusion than other locations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Transradial access (TRA) is commonly utilized in neurointerventional procedures. This study compared the technical and clinical outcomes of the use of TRA versus those of transfemoral access (TFA) for intracranial aneurysm embolization with the Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device. METHODS This is a secondary analysis of the Worldwide WEB Consortium, which comprises multicenter data related to adult patients with intracranial aneurysms who were managed with the WEB device. These aneurysms were categorized into two groups: those who were treated with TRA or TFA. Patient and aneurysm characteristics and technical and clinical outcomes were compared between groups. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to match groups according to the following baseline characteristics: age, sex, subarachnoid hemorrhage, aneurysm location, bifurcation aneurysm, aneurysm with incorporated branch, neck width, aspect ratio, dome width, and elapsed time since the last follow-up imaging evaluation. RESULTS This study included 682 intracranial aneurysms (median [interquartile range] age 61.3 [53.0-68.0] years), of which 561 were treated with TFA and 121 with TRA. PSM resulted in 65 matched pairs. After PSM, both groups had similar characteristics, angiographic and functional outcomes, and rates of retreatment, thromboembolic and hemorrhagic complications, and death. TFA was associated with longer procedure length (median 96.5 minutes vs 72.0 minutes, p = 0.006) and fluoroscopy time (28.2 minutes vs 24.8 minutes, p = 0.037) as compared with TRA. On the other hand, deployment issues were more common in those treated with TRA, but none resulted in permanent complications. CONCLUSIONS TRA has comparable outcomes, with shorter procedure and fluoroscopy time, to TFA for aneurysm embolization with the WEB device.

Abstract
Background:
Prospective studies have established the safety and efficacy of the Pipeline
TM
Embolization Device (PED) for treatment of intracranial aneurysms (IA).
Objective:
To investigate long-term outcomes from the Pipeline Embolization Devices for the Treatment of Intracranial Aneurysms (PEDESTRIAN) Registry.
Methods:
The PEDESTRIAN registry data was retrospectively reviewed, which included patients (March 2006-July2019) with complex IAs treated with PED. The primary angiographic endpoint was complete occlusion and long-term stability. Clinical and radiological follow-up was performed at 3-6 months, 12 months, and yearly thereafter.
Results:
A total of 835 patients (mean age 55.9±14.7 years; 80.0% female) with 1,000 aneurysms were included. Aneurysms varied in size: 64.6% were small (≤10mm), 25.6% were large (11-24mm), and 9.8% were giant (≥25mm). A total of 1,214 PEDs were deployed. Follow-up angiography was available for 85.1% of patients with 776 aneurysms at 24.6±25.0 months (mean). Complete occlusion was demonstrated in 75.8% of aneurysms at 12-months, 92.9% at 2-4 years, and 96.4% at >5 years. During the post-procedural period, mRS remained stable or improved in 96.2% of patients, with stability or improvement in 99.1% of patients >5 years. The overall major morbidity and neurological mortality rate was 5.8%. At multivariate analysis, age (HR 1.04; 95% CI 1.01-1.07, p=0.002) and non-saccular morphology (HR 2.91; 95% CI 1.06-7.97, p=0.038) were identified as independent predictors of mRs worsening. We found a trend towards lower rates of thromboembolic complications since the implementation of prasugrel, with 26 (4.4%) patients on clopidogrel developing stroke compared with 4 (1.6%) patients on prasugrel (OR 2.74; 95% CI 0.95-7.95, p=0.06). Trend towards less thromboembolic complications with PED Shield N= 3/213 (1,4%) OR 0.38 (95% CI o.12; 1.27), p value=0.11
Conclusion:
This study demonstrated high rates of long-term complete aneurysm occlusion, stable or improved functional outcomes, and low rates of complications and mortality. Clinical and angiographic outcomes improved over long-term follow-up, demonstrating endovascular treatment of IA with PED is safe and effective.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is considerable overlap of contributors to cardiovascular disease and the development of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Compromised ocular microcirculation due to aging and vascular disease contribute to retinal dysfunction and vision loss. Decreased choroidal perfusion is evident in eyes with dry AMD and is thought to play a role in retinal pigment epithelial dysfunction, the rate of development of geographic atrophy, and the development of neovascularization. The aim of the study was to demonstrate that AMD is correlated with a compromised blood flow in the ocular pathway and show OA angioplasty as a potential treatment of late-stage AMD. METHODS Based on the potential for the ophthalmic artery (OA) to be an anatomical target for the treatment of AMD as outlined above, five patients were found to be eligible for compassionate use treatment, presenting clinically significant late-stage AMD with profound vision loss in one or both eyes, and are included in this retrospective study. RESULTS OA narrowing, or significant calcium burden at the ophthalmic segment of the internal carotid artery compromising the origin of the OA was confirmed in all cases. Subsequent OA cannulation was achieved in all patients with some difficulty. Subjective patient reports indicated that all patients perceived a benefit following the procedure; however, improved postoperative visual acuity did not confirm that perceived benefit for one of the patients. CONCLUSIONS Feasibility and safety of the OA angioplasty were demonstrated, and a benefit perceived in five patients with profound vision loss and a desire to achieve improved quality of life. A clinical trial with controlled schedule, imaging, and methodologies is needed to confirm these results.

Abstract
PURPOSE We explored epicardial (EAT) and periaortic (PAT) adipose tissue characteristics in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS), and the relationship with stroke etiology, calcification burden, and inflammation. METHOD We included a retrospective cohort of consecutive patients admitted with AIS between 2015 and 2020 who underwent a chest computed tomography. We calculated volumes and attenuation of EAT and PAT, and coronary artery (CAC), and thoracic aortic (TAC) calcification. Admission's neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) was recorded. Stroke severity was assessed using the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), and patients were discriminated between cardioembolic (CE), non-CE, and embolic strokes of uncertain source (ESUS). RESULTS A total of 182 patients were included. EAT (non-CE 127.4 ± 47.1 cm3; CE 133.3 ± 56.7 cm3; ESUS 121.6 ± 63.5 cm3, p > 0.05) and PAT (non-CE 37.4 ± 18.6 cm3; CE 40.4 ± 17.2 cm3; ESUS 34.5 ± 14.1 cm3, p > 0.05) volumes were similar between stroke etiologies. Patients with CE stroke had higher PAT attenuation (PAT = non-CE -84.4 ± 7.0 HU; CE -78.1 ± 9.9 HU; ESUS -82.3 ± 9.3 HU, p < 0.001). Using multiple linear regression, albeit weak, we found a significant relationship between NLR and PAT attenuation [Beta 0.24; (95% CI 0.04-0.51), p < 0.05). Despite similar volume, PAT attenuation was higher (p < 0.01) among demised patients. CONCLUSION In this study, we identified higher periaortic fat attenuation, despite similar fat volume, in patients with CE stroke.

Abstract
Surgical ventriculoperitoneal shunting remains standard treatment for communicating hydrocephalus, despite persistently elevated infection and revision rates. A novel minimally invasive endovascular cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunt was developed to mimic the function of the arachnoid granulation which passively filters CSF from the central nervous system back into the intracranial venous sinus network. The endovascular shunt is deployed via a femoral transvenous approach across the dura mater into the cerebellopontine angle cistern. An octogenarian with intractable hydrocephalus following subarachnoid hemorrhage underwent successful endovascular shunting, resulting in swift intracranial pressure reduction from 38 to <20 cmH2O (<90 min) and resolution of ventriculomegaly. This first successful development of a percutaneous transluminal venous access to the central nervous system offers a new pathway for non-invasive treatment of hydrocephalus and the potential for intervention against neurological disorders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of flow diversion to treat intracranial aneurysms has increased in recent years. OBJECTIVE To assess the safety and angiographic efficacy of the p64 flow modulation device. METHODS Diversion-p64 is an international, prospective, multicenter, single-arm, study conducted at 26 centers. The p64 flow modulation device was used to treat anterior circulation aneurysms between December 2015 and January 2019. The primary safety endpoint was the incidence of major stroke or neurologic death at 3-6 months, with the primary efficacy endpoint being complete aneurysm occlusion (Raymond-Roy Occlusion Classification 1) on follow-up angiography. RESULTS A total of 420 patients met the eligibility criteria and underwent treatment with the p64 flow modulation device (mean age 55±12.0 years, 86.2% female). Mean aneurysm dome width was 6.99±5.28 mm and neck width 4.47±2.28 mm. Mean number of devices implanted per patient was 1.06±0.47, with adjunctive coiling performed in 14.0% of the cases. At the second angiographic follow-up (mean 375±73 days), available for 343 patients (81.7%), complete aneurysm occlusion was seen in 287 (83.7%) patients. Safety data were available for 413 patients (98.3%) at the first follow-up (mean 145±43 days) with a composite morbidity/mortality rate of 2.42% (n=10). CONCLUSIONS Diversion-p64 is the largest prospective study using the p64 flow modulation device. The results of this study demonstrate that the device has a high efficacy and carries a low rate of mortality and permanent morbidity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prospective studies have established the safety and efficacy of the PipelineTM Embolization Device (PED; Medtronic) for treatment of intracranial aneurysms (IA). OBJECTIVE To investigate long-term outcomes from the Pipeline Embolization Devices for the Treatment of Intracranial Aneurysms (PEDESTRIAN) Registry. METHODS The PEDESTRIAN Registry data were retrospectively reviewed, which included patients (March 2006 to July 2019) with complex IAs treated with PED. Patients with unfavorable anatomy and/or recurrence following previous treatment were included and excluded those with acute subarachnoid hemorrhage. The primary angiographic endpoint was complete occlusion and long-term stability. Clinical and radiological follow-up was performed at 3 to 6 mo, 12 mo, and yearly thereafter. RESULTS A total of 835 patients (mean age 55.9 ± 14.7 yr; 80.0% female) with 1000 aneurysms were included. Aneurysms varied in size: 64.6% were small (≤10 mm), 25.6% were large (11-24 mm), and 9.8% were giant (≥25 mm). A total of 1214 PEDs were deployed. Follow-up angiography was available for 85.1% of patients with 776 aneurysms at 24.6 ± 25.0 mo (mean). Complete occlusion was demonstrated in 75.8% of aneurysms at 12 mo, 92.9% at 2 to 4 yr, and 96.4% at >5 yr. During the postprocedural period, modified Rankin Scale scores remained stable or improved in 96.2% of patients, with stability or improvement in 99.1% of patients >5 yr. The overall major morbidity and neurological mortality rate was 5.8%. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated high rates of long-term complete aneurysm occlusion, stable or improved functional outcomes, and low rates of complications and mortality. Clinical and angiographic outcomes improved over long-term follow-up, demonstrating that endovascular treatment of IA with PED is safe and effective.

Abstract
Background The COVID-19 pandemic led to profound changes in the organization of health care systems worldwide. Aims We sought to measure the global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the volumes for mechanical thrombectomy, stroke, and intracranial hemorrhage hospitalizations over a three-month period at the height of the pandemic (1 March–31 May 2020) compared with two control three-month periods (immediately preceding and one year prior). Methods Retrospective, observational, international study, across 6 continents, 40 countries, and 187 comprehensive stroke centers. The diagnoses were identified by their ICD-10 codes and/or classifications in stroke databases at participating centers. Results The hospitalization volumes for any stroke, intracranial hemorrhage, and mechanical thrombectomy were 26,699, 4002, and 5191 in the three months immediately before versus 21,576, 3540, and 4533 during the first three pandemic months, representing declines of 19.2% (95%CI, −19.7 to −18.7), 11.5% (95%CI, −12.6 to −10.6), and 12.7% (95%CI, −13.6 to −11.8), respectively. The decreases were noted across centers with high, mid, and low COVID-19 hospitalization burden, and also across high, mid, and low volume stroke/mechanical thrombectomy centers. High-volume COVID-19 centers (−20.5%) had greater declines in mechanical thrombectomy volumes than mid- (−10.1%) and low-volume (−8.7%) centers (p < 0.0001). There was a 1.5% stroke rate across 54,366 COVID-19 hospitalizations. SARS-CoV-2 infection was noted in 3.9% (784/20,250) of all stroke admissions. Conclusion The COVID-19 pandemic was associated with a global decline in the volume of overall stroke hospitalizations, mechanical thrombectomy procedures, and intracranial hemorrhage admission volumes. Despite geographic variations, these volume reductions were observed regardless of COVID-19 hospitalization burden and pre-pandemic stroke/mechanical thrombectomy volumes.

Abstract
Background During the COVID-19 pandemic, decreased volumes of stroke admissions and mechanical thrombectomy were reported. The study’s objective was to examine whether subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) hospitalisations and ruptured aneurysm coiling interventions demonstrated similar declines. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional, retrospective, observational study across 6 continents, 37 countries and 140 comprehensive stroke centres. Patients with the diagnosis of SAH, aneurysmal SAH, ruptured aneurysm coiling interventions and COVID-19 were identified by prospective aneurysm databases or by International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision, codes. The 3-month cumulative volume, monthly volumes for SAH hospitalisations and ruptured aneurysm coiling procedures were compared for the period before (1 year and immediately before) and during the pandemic, defined as 1 March–31 May 2020. The prior 1-year control period (1 March–31 May 2019) was obtained to account for seasonal variation. Findings There was a significant decline in SAH hospitalisations, with 2044 admissions in the 3 months immediately before and 1585 admissions during the pandemic, representing a relative decline of 22.5% (95% CI −24.3% to −20.7%, p<0.0001). Embolisation of ruptured aneurysms declined with 1170–1035 procedures, respectively, representing an 11.5% (95%CI −13.5% to −9.8%, p=0.002) relative drop. Subgroup analysis was noted for aneurysmal SAH hospitalisation decline from 834 to 626 hospitalisations, a 24.9% relative decline (95% CI −28.0% to −22.1%, p<0.0001). A relative increase in ruptured aneurysm coiling was noted in low coiling volume hospitals of 41.1% (95% CI 32.3% to 50.6%, p=0.008) despite a decrease in SAH admissions in this tertile. Interpretation There was a relative decrease in the volume of SAH hospitalisations, aneurysmal SAH hospitalisations and ruptured aneurysm embolisations during the COVID-19 pandemic. These findings in SAH are consistent with a decrease in other emergencies, such as stroke and myocardial infarction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The present study investigated the potential usefulness of delayed-phase, low-dose, non-gated, chest spectral CT scans (DSCT) for the early triage of cardioembolic (CE) sources in patients admitted with acute ischemic stroke (AIS), and for the simultaneous detection of myocardial disease and thrombotic complications. MATERIAL AND METHODS Since July 2020 and promoted by the COVID-19 pandemic, we implemented the use of DSCT after cerebrovascular CT angiography (CTA) among patients with AIS using a dual-layer spectral CT. We explored the presence of CE sources, as well as late myocardium iodine enhancement (LIE) and pulmonary thromboembolism. Among patients further undergoing transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) or cardiac CTA, we explored the diagnostic performance. RESULTS Fifty consecutive patients with AIS who underwent DSCT after cerebrovascular CTA comprised the patient population. The confidence degree for excluding cardiac thrombi was significantly higher than for LIE (4.4±0.8 vs. 3.4±1.3, p<0.0001). DSCT identified a CE source in 4 (8%) and LIE in 24 (48%) patients. The iodine ratio of CE sources was significantly lower compared to the left atrial appendage of patients with no CE sources (0.25±0.1 mg/mL vs. 0.91±0.2 mg/mL, p<0.0001). TEE/cardiac CT, performed in 20 (40%) patients, identified a CE source in 5 (25%) cases, whereas DSCT identified 4 (20%), leading to a sensitivity and specificity of 80% (95% CI 28-99%) and 100% (95% CI 78-100%) respectively (kappa 0.86). CONCLUSIONS In this pilot study, we identified DSCT as a potential unsophisticated approach for the early triage of CE sources among patients with AIS undergoing CTA upon admission.

Abstract
During the pandemic context, diagnostic algorithms had to be adapted considering the decimated medical personnel, local technical resources, and the likelihood of contamination. Given the higher probability of thrombotic complications related to COVID-19 and the availability of a dual-layer spectral computed tomography (CT) scanner, we have recently adopted the use of low-dose, non-gated, chest CT scans performed five minutes after contrast administration among patients admitted with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) undergoing cerebrovascular CT angiography. Dual-layer spectral CT comprises a single X-ray source and two-layer detector with different photon-absorption capabilities. In addition to conventional images, the two distinct energy datasets obtained enable multiparametric spectral analysis without need to change the original scanning protocol. The two spectral features that emerge as most useful for patients with AIS are virtual monoenergetic imaging and iodine-based results. Aside from the evaluation of lung parenchyma, this novel strategy enables ruling out cardioembolic sources and simultaneously providing evidence of pulmonary and myocardial injury in a single session and immediately after CT cerebrovascular angiography. Furthermore, it involves a non-invasive, seemingly accurate, unsophisticated, safer (very low radiation dose and no contrast administration), and cheaper tool for ruling out cardioembolic sources compared to transesophageal echocardiogram and cardiac CT. Accordingly, we sought to standardize the technical aspects and overview the usefulness of delayed-phase, low-dose chest spectral CT in patients admitted with AIS.

Abstract
Background:
The COVID-19 pandemic has promoted adaptations in diagnostic algorithms. We explored the feasibility and accuracy of delayed phase (DP) chest computed tomography (CT) performed immediately after brain CT perfusion (CTP) for the identification of thrombotic complications and myocardial fibrosis among patients admitted with acute ischemic stroke (AIS).
Methods:
Since July, we have incorporated the use of low dose chest CT scans using a spectral CT scanner in all patients admitted with AIS, encouraging acquisitions, five min after brain CTP. All scans were non gated and comprised low dose chest CT scans, without additional contrast. Using virtual monochromatic imaging and iodine maps, we evaluated the presence of thrombotic complications, myocardial late enhancement, and myocardial extracellular volume (ECV), as a surrogate of edema and interstitial fibrosis.
Results:
We included 22 patients. The mean age was 66.2±19.6 years. In 5 patients, a cardioembolic (CE) source was later identified by transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE), [left atrial appendage (LAA) thrombus, n=1], transthoracic echocardiogram with agitated saline injection (patent foramen ovale n=2), or by EKG (atrial fibrillation). Seven patients further underwent either TEE or cardiac CT to identify CE sources. DP non gated chest CT had a sensitivity and specificity of 100% to identify CE sources, 1 LAA thrombus correctly detected. Chest CT identified pulmonary thromboembolism (PE), later confirmed with CT angiography. Chest CT identified myocardial late enhancement in 16 patients (80% in CE vs. 71% in non CE, p=0.68), myocardial fat in 1, and coronary calcification in 77% [with 2.6±2.2 vs 3.8±3.6 coronary calcified segments in CE vs. non CE strokes, p=0.36). The mean ECV was 35±4% in CE vs 32±6% in non CE strokes (p=0.17). The 2 patients with a positive PCR test for COVID-19 showed evidence of myocardial late iodine enhancement, and incremented ECV of the septal wall (38% and 40%, respectively).
Conclusions:
In this pilot study, DP, non ECG gated, low dose chest CT scan performed 5 min after brain CTP with a spectral scanner; enabled straightforward identification of CE sources among patients with AIS. This approach allowed detection of PE and myocardial injury.

Abstract
Background and Purpose:
Prospective studies have established the safety and efficacy of the Pipeline
TM
Embolization Device (PED) for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms (IA). Here, we report long-term outcomes from The Pipeline Embolization Devices for the Treatment of Intracranial Aneurysms (PEDESTRIAN) Registry.
Methods:
This was a retrospective review of prospectively collected data from the PEDESTRIAN registry. Between March 2006 and July 2019, consecutive patients with complex IA were treated with PED at one center in Argentina. Patients with unfavorable anatomy and/or recurrence following previous treatment were included, and those with acute subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) were excluded. The primary angiographic endpoint was complete occlusion and long-term stability. Clinical and angiographic follow-up was performed at 3-6 months, 12 months, and yearly thereafter.
Results:
A total of 835 patients (mean age 55.9±14.7 years; 80% [671/835] female) with 1,000 aneurysms were included. The majority (64.6%) of aneurysms were small (≤10mm), 25.6% were large (11-24mm), and 9.8% were giant (≥25mm). A total of 1,214 PEDs were deployed, with a single device deployed in 84.2% of aneurysms. Follow-up angiography was available for 85.1% of patients with 776 aneurysms at mean 24.6±25.0 months. Complete Raymond Roy I occlusion was demonstrated in 75.8% (588/776) of aneurysms at 12-months, 92.9% (300/323) at 2-4 years, and 96.4% (159/165) at >5 years. During the post-procedural period, mRS remained stable or improved in 96.2% of patients, with stability or improvement in 99.1% of patients in the longer term. The overall major morbidity and neurological mortality rate was 5.8% (44/835), and the all-cause mortality rate was 4.6% (38/835).
Conclusions:
Endovascular treatment of IA with PED is safe and effective, with rates of complete occlusion, complications, and mortality comparable to previous prospective studies. Serial angiographic follow-up showed high and increasing occlusion rates, with stable occlusion of all cases at 13 years.

Abstract
Introduction:
During the COVID-19 pandemic, decreased volumes of stroke admissions and mechanical thrombectomy were reported. The objective was to examine whether subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH) hospitalizations and ruptured aneurysm coiling interventions demonstrated similar declines.
Methods:
We conducted a global, retrospective, observational study across 6 continents, 37 countries, and 140 comprehensive stroke centers. Patients with diagnosis of SAH, ruptured aneurysm coiling interventions, COVID-19 were identified using ICD-10 codes or by prospectively maintained stroke databases. The 3-month cumulative volume, monthly volumes for SAH hospitalizations and ruptured aneurysm coiling procedures were compared for the period before (1-year and immediately before) and during the COVID-19 pandemic (March 1 to May 31, 2020).
Results:
There was a significant decline in SAH hospitalizations with 2,044 admissions in the 3 months immediately before and 1,585 admissions during the pandemic, representing a decline of 22.5% (95%CI, -24.3 to -20.7, p<0.0001). Embolization of ruptured aneurysms declined with 1,170 to 1,035 procedures, respectively, representing an 11.5%(95%CI, -13.5 to -9.8, p=0.002) drop. Hospitals with higher COVID-19 hospitalization burden demonstrated greater declines in SAH and ruptured aneurysm coiling compared to lower COVID-19 burden. A relative increase in coiling of ruptured aneurysms was noted in low coiling volume hospitals of 41.1% (95%CI, 32.3-50.6, p=0.008) despite a decrease in SAH admissions in this tertile.
Conclusions:
There was a global decrease in subarachnoid hemorrhage admissions and ruptured aneurysm embolizations during the COVID-19 pandemic. Among low-volume coiling SAH hospitals, there was an increase in the ruptured aneurysm coiling intervention. These findings in SAH are consistent with a global decrease in other emergencies such as stroke and myocardial infarction.*On behalf of the SVIN COVID-19 Collaborators

Abstract
The complex and reciprocal relationship between the brain and the heart has gained increasing attention under the concept of neurocardiology. Myocardial injury is common in cerebrovascular disease, and cardiovascular complications are the second leading cause of death after stroke. Cardiac computed tomography (CT) is a fast and reliable non-invasive tool for the assessment of cardioembolic sources. Compared to single energy CT, spectral/dual energy cardiac CT improves tissue characterization and also leads to significant reductions in contrast volume. In this review article, we portray the potential clinical applications of spectral CT in neurocardiology, focusing in the enhanced diagnosis of cardioembolic sources and cardiovascular risk assessment of patients with stroke, including improved detection of thrombus, identification of subtle myocardial disease, and pulmonary complications within the same session.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Twig-like middle cerebral artery configuration (Tw-MCA) is a rare and commonly misdiagnosed vascular anomaly characterized by a plexiform arterial network that replaces the normal M1 segment. The prevalence and clinical relevance of this anomaly is not fully established. MATERIAL AND METHODS We sought to explore the prevalence of Tw-MCA in patients clinically referred to digital angiography in a single academic comprehensive endovascular center and evaluated the radiological and clinical findings among patients with hemorrhagic events. RESULTS From 2011 to 2020, a total of 10,234 patients underwent a cerebral angiography at our institution. During this period, 9 (0.088%) Tw-MCAs were identified. Out of these, 5 patients (62.5%) were admitted due to an intracranial hemorrhage. Two patients had a ruptured intracranial aneurysm on the anterior communicating artery, one with multiple brain aneurysms; two patients presented an intraparenchymal hematoma (IPH) due to the presence of a periventricular anastomosis and one patient an intraventricular hemorrhage with unclear origin. CONCLUSION Tw-MCA is a very rare vascular anomaly associated with hemorrhagic events. Adequate identification of this anomaly is essential in order to avoid misdiagnosis as steno-occlusive disorders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gender differences are often reported in the field of ischemic stroke, although most of such discrepancies were observed in randomized trials involving highly selected populations. We therefore explored gender differences regarding 90-day outcomes in large vessel occlusion (LVO) strokes receiving endovascular treatment in a real world setting. METHODS This prospective registry included anterior and/or posterior circulation LVO strokes admitted between January 2014 and December 2019 who received mechanical thrombectomy up to 24 hours from symptoms onset or last known to be well. We explored sex-related differences in rates of functional independence (modified Rankin Scale, mRS, ≤2) at 90 days. Secondary outcomes included "National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale" (NIHSS) at 24 hours, successful reperfusion defined as modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (mTICI) scale 2b/3, death, and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH). RESULTS A total of 288 LVO stroke patients comprised the study population, involving 148 (51.4%) women. Females were older (71.4±15.7 vs. 66.1±14.0 years, p=0.003) and had lower rates of coronary artery disease (15% vs. 24%, p=0.05). The median time from symptoms onset to hospital arrival was 315 min (IQR 139.5-495.0) in females and 255.0 (IQR 117.0-405.0) in males (p=0.052). Rates of mRS ≤2 at 90 days were comparable (females 46% vs. males 49%, p=0.50). Successful reperfusion was achieved in 82% of females and 89% of males (p=0.10). Rates of sICH (females 10% vs. males 13%, p=0.47) and death (females 18% vs. males 21%, p=0.50) at 90 days were similar. NIHSS at 24 hours was the strongest predictor of functional independence at 90 days (area under ROC curve 0.92 (95%CI 0.87; 0.95)]. CONCLUSIONS Our prospective registry involving a real world setting suggests that females are equally likely to achieve good outcomes after endovascular treatment despite being older and having delayed hospital arrival compared to males. In addition, we found that NIHSS at 24 hours was the strongest predictor of functional independence at 90 days, sICH, and death.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This survey was focused on the provision of neurointerventional services, the current practices of managing patients under COVID-19 conditions, and the expectations for the future. METHODS Invitations for this survey were sent out as a collaborative effort of the European Society of Minimally Invasive Neurological Therapy (ESMINT), the Society of NeuroInterventional Surgery (SNIS), the Sociedad Iberolatinoamericana de Neuroradiologia Diagnostica y Terapeutica (SILAN), the Society of Vascular and Interventional Neurology (SVIN), and the World Federation of Interventional and Therapeutic Neuroradiology (WFITN). RESULTS Overall, 475 participants from 61 countries responded (six from Africa (1%), 81 from Asia (17%), 156 from Europe (33%), 53 from Latin America (11%), and 172 from North America (11%)). The majority of participants (96%) reported being able to provide emergency services, though 26% of these reported limited resources. A decrease in emergency procedures was reported by 69% of participants (52% in ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, 11% ischemic, and 6% hemorrhagic stroke alone). Only 4% reported an increase in emergency cases. The emerging need for social distancing and the rapid adoption of remote communication was reflected in the interest in establishing case discussion forums (43%), general online forums (37%), and access to angio video streaming for live mentoring and support (33%). CONCLUSION Neurointerventional emergency services are available in almost all centers, while the number of emergency patients is markedly decreased. Half of the participants have abandoned neurointerventions in non-emergent situations. There are considerable variations in the management of neurointerventions and in the expectations for the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Treatment of wide-neck bifurcation aneurysms using endovascular therapy is still challenging even with the development of treatment devices. The purpose of this investigation was to assess the safety and efficacy of treatment with a Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device for wide-neck bifurcation aneurysms. MATERIALS AND METHODS All patients treated with a WEB device at our institution between May 2009 and November 2016 were retrospectively evaluated. Clinical and imaging evaluation, aneurysm occlusion status, and modified Rankin scale score were analyzed 1 day after treatment and in the short- (<6 months), mid- (<24 months), and long-term (>24 months) follow-up periods. RESULTS Forty-one cases of wide-neck aneurysms were analyzed in this study. Overall, 78.8% of the aneurysms had complete occlusion in the last follow-up, and 19.5% required retreatment with additional endovascular devices. A good clinical outcome (modified Rankin scale: 0-2) was obtained in 95.1% of the patients, and the overall treatment-related morbidity and mortality rates were 2.4% and 0.0%, respectively. The mean follow-up time was 15.3 ± 13.5 months. CONCLUSIONS The results obtained in this study suggest that treatment of wide-neck bifurcation aneurysms with a WEB device is feasible with an acceptable safety and efficacy rate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Endosaccular flow disruption is a recognized treatment options for treating both unruptured and ruptured aneurysms. The Contour device is designed to target the neck of an aneurysm and cause flow disruption within the aneurysm hence promoting thrombosis and neo-endothelialization at the neck. This article presents initial experiences with the Contour. METHODS The prospectively maintained database was retrospectively reviewed to identify patients treated with the Contour device. Demographic data, aneurysm characteristics, clinical result, and clinical and radiological follow-up information were recorded. RESULTS The review identified 3 patients (2 female), with 3 unruptured aneurysms, of average age 67 ± 8.7 years (range 62-77 years). The aneurysms were all located in the anterior circulation including one pericallosal, one at the A1-2 junction and one on the ICA bifurcation. The mean average dome height was 7.6 ± 0.62 mm (range 7.1-8.3 mm), dome width 5.7 ± 2 mm (range 3.5-7.5 mm), and neck width 3.6 ± 0.95 mm (range 2.5-4.2 mm). At follow-up angiography two of the aneurysms were completely occluded and one device had displaced into the aneurysm sac due to inappropriate positioning of the device. Of the patients one had minor stroke during the postoperative period but returned to baseline neurology. All patients were mRS 0 at last follow-up. CONCLUSION The Contour is a promising new aneurysm occlusion device. Further studies with longer term follow-up are required to determine the efficacy of this novel device.

Abstract
Endovascular treatment (EVT) has become the standard of care for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) with proximal large vessel occlusions (LVO). However, it is still unknown whether these results can be generalized to clinical practice. We aimed to perform a retrospective review of patients who received EVT up to 24 hours, and to assess safety and efficacy in everyday clinical practice. We performed a retrospective analysis, from January 2013 to December 2017, on 139 consecutive patients with AIS for anterior circulation LVO strokes up to 24 h from symptoms onset, who received EVT in our institution. The primary outcome measured was a modified Rankin scale (mRS) = 2 at 90 days. Secondary outcomes included successful reperfusion, defined as a modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (mTICI) scale 2b/3, mortality rate at 90 days and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH). The mean age was 67.5 ± 15.0, with 51.8% female patients. Median baseline National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) was 14 (IQR 8-18); median time from symptom onset to groin puncture was 331 min (IQR 212-503). Sixty-three patients (45.3%) were treated beyond 6 hours after symptoms onset. The rate of mRS = 2 was 47.5%. Successful reperfusion was achieved in 74.8 %. Mortality rate at 90 days was 18.7 % and sICH was 7.9 %. Our registry of real-life patients with AIS due to LVO who received EVT within 24 hours showed high reperfusion rates, and good functional results with few complications, according to international recommendations.

Abstract
Objective The p48 is a low-profile, intermediate-porosity flow diverter. phenox GmbH-trademarked hydrophilic polymer coating (pHPC) is a hydrophilic coating that has been shown in vitro to reduce the thrombogenicity of nitinol device surfaces. We performed the present study to determine whether the p48_HPC can be implanted using prasugrel alone. Methods We retrospectively identified all patients who were treated with the p48_HPC from January 2017 to December 2018 (n = 5) and underwent single antiplatelet therapy (SAPT) with prasugrel. P2Y12 inhibition was confirmed by the VerifyNow assay. The occurrence of thromboembolic and haemorrhagic complications was recorded alongside the occlusion rates of the treated aneurysms. Results All patients achieved adequate occlusion (Raymond–Roy Occlusion Classification I or II) during the follow-up period. No thromboembolic complications occurred. One patient developed a contained haematoma within the Sylvian fissure from the treated aneurysm 2 weeks postoperatively without clinical sequelae. Conclusions In this small series, no thromboembolic complications occurred in patients treated with the surface modified p48_HPC flow diverter and SAPT. Further studies with longer follow-up periods and larger cohorts should be performed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The safety of PipelineTM Embolization Device (PED; Medtronic Inc, Dublin, Ireland) in posterior circulation aneurysms is still controversial. OBJECTIVE To study complications associated with the treatment of posterior circulation aneurysms by conducting a subgroup analysis from the International Retrospective Study of PED registry. METHODS Data from 91 consecutive patients with 95 posterior circulation aneurysms at 17 centers between July 2008 to February 2013 were analyzed. The primary endpoint was defined as any complication leading to neurological morbidity or death. The outcome predictors were calculated using Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression methods. RESULTS The mean aneurysm size was 13.8 mm. Aneurysm types were saccular (36.8%), fusiform (29.5%), dissecting (28.4%), and others (5.3%). The median follow-up was 21.1 mo. Twelve (13.2%) patients encountered a primary endpoint event. In multivariate analysis for the primary endpoint, use of ≥3 PEDs and fusiform shape compared with other shapes had hazard ratios (HRs) of 7.77 (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.48-25.86; P = .0007) and 3.48 (95% CI, 1.06-13.39; P = .0488), respectively. The multivariate HR of aneurysm size for neurological morbidity after PED implantation was 1.11 (95% CI, 1.04-1.18; P = .0015), and HRs of ruptured aneurysm and age for neurological mortality were 8.1 (95% CI, 1.31-41.26; P = .0197) and 1.07 (95% CI, 1.02-1.15; P = .0262), respectively. Basilar artery aneurysm had an HR of 3.54 (95% CI, 1.12-14.18, P = .0529) in the univariate analysis for major outcomes. CONCLUSION PED implantation may be considered for the treatment of posterior circulation aneurysms, especially of saccular or dissecting type. Our major complications appear to be comparable to those reported previously after clipping and coiling in the literature. Neurointerventionists should consider the shape, size, rupture, and location of complex posterior circulation aneurysms as well as age and PED number before the PED placement.

Abstract
Background and Purpose The use of flow diverters to treat aneurysms arising from small caliber parent vessels has been reported. This article reports the results of the first in experiences with the p48MW (p48 Movable Wire) in humans, a device specifically designed to target vessels 1.75–3 mm in diameter. Methods This monocentric study retrospectively reviewed the prospectively maintained database to identify all patients treated with the p48MW device between January 2017 and January 2019 at this institution. Patient demographics, aneurysm characteristics, angiographic and clinical follow-up were recorded as well as complications. Results A total of 25 patients (20 female) with an average age of 55 ± 12.9 years (range 34–84) with 25 aneurysms were identified. The majority of the aneurysms was located in the anterior circulation (19/25, 76%). The average aneurysm dome width was 3.98 ± 3.6 mm (range 1.2–13 mm). Complete occlusion was seen in 18/24 (75%) aneurysms with neck remnants in 1/24 (4.2%) and continued aneurysm filling seen in the remaining cases (5/24, 20.8%). Adequate occlusion was seen in 79.2% of aneurysms (Raymond Roy Classification [RRC] grade I or II) during the follow-up period. There was a single technical complication with inappropriate deployment of the first p48MW. There was a single clinical complication (4%); however, the patient made a complete recovery (modified Rankin Scale [mRS] 0) and one patient died secondary to uncontrollable status epilepticus following acute subarachnoid hemorrhage unrelated to the treatment. Conclusion The p48MW is safe and effective for the treatment of aneurysms including those arising from distal vessels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Intrasaccular flow diversion offers a promising treatment option for complex bifurcation aneurysms. The purpose of this study was to compare the flow conditions between successfully occluded and incompletely occluded aneurysms treated with intrasaccular devices. MATERIALS AND METHODS The hemodynamics in 18 completely occluded aneurysms after treatment with intrasaccular devices was compared against 18 that were incompletely occluded at follow-up. Hemodynamic and geometric parameters were obtained from computational fluid dynamics models constructed from 3D angiographies. Models of the intrasaccular devices were created and interactively deployed within the vascular models using posttreatment angiography images for guidance. Hemodynamic and geometric variables were compared using the Mann-Whitney test and univariate logistic regression analysis. RESULTS Incomplete occlusion was associated with large posttreatment mean aneurysm inflows (P = .02) and small reductions in the mean inflow rate (P = .01) and inflow concentration index (P = .03). Incompletely occluded aneurysms were larger (P = .002) and had wider necks (P = .004) than completely occluded aneurysms and tended to have more complex flow patterns, though this trend was not significant after adjusting for multiple testing. CONCLUSIONS The outcome of cerebral aneurysm treatment with intrasaccular flow diverters is associated with flow conditions created immediately after device implantation. Flow conditions unfavorable for immediate and complete occlusion seem to be created by improper positioning or orientation of the device. Complete occlusion is more difficult to achieve in larger aneurysms, aneurysms with wider necks, and aneurysms with stronger and more complex flows.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stent-assisted coiling and extra-saccular flow diversion require dual anti-platelet therapy due to the thrombogenic properties of the implants. While both methods are widely accepted, thromboembolic complications and the detrimental effects of dual anti-platelet therapy remain a concern. Anti-thrombogenic surface coatings aim to solve both of these issues. Current developments are discussed within the framework of an actual clinical case. CASE DESCRIPTION A 33-year-old male patient lost consciousness while doing sport and was administered 500 mg acetylsalicylic acid on site. Computed tomography revealed a massive subarachnoid haemorrhage, and digital subtraction angiography showed an aneurysm of the right middle cerebral artery. Stent-assisted coiling using a neck bridging device with a hydrophilic coating (pCONUS_HPC) was considered as an appropriate approach. Another 500 mg acetylsalicylic acid IV was given. After the single anti-platelet therapy was seen to be effective, a pCONUS_HPC was implanted, and the aneurysm sac subsequently fully occluded using coils. No thrombus formation was encountered. During the following days, 2 × 500 mg acetylsalicylic acid IV daily were required to maintain single anti-platelet therapy, monitored by frequent response testing. Follow-up digital subtraction angiography after 13 days confirmed the occlusion of the aneurysm and the patency of the middle cerebral artery. CONCLUSION A variety of ways to reduce the thrombogenicity of neurovascular stents is discussed. Hydrophilic surface coatings are a valid concept to improve the haemocompatibility of neurovascular implants while avoiding the use of dual anti-platelet therapy. Phosphorylcholine and phenox hydrophilic polymer coating are currently the most promising candidates. This concept is supported by anecdotal experience. However, formalised registries and randomised trials are currently being established.
