Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES There is uncertainty whether patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO) presenting in the late 6-hour to 24-hour time window can be selected for endovascular therapy (EVT) by noncontrast CT (NCCT) and CT angiography (CTA) for LVO detection. We evaluated the clinical outcomes of patients selected for EVT by NCCT compared with those medically managed in the extended time window. METHODS This multinational cohort study was conducted at 66 sites across 10 countries. Consecutive patients with proximal anterior LVO stroke selected for EVT by NCCT or medically managed and presenting within 6-24 hours of time last seen well (TSLW) from January 2014 to May 2022 were included. The primary end point was the 90-day ordinal shift in the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score. Inverse probability treatment weighting (IPTW) and multivariable methods were used. RESULTS Of 5,098 patients screened, 839 patients were included, with a median (interquartile range) age of 75 (64-83) years; 455 (54.2%) were women. There were 616 patients selected to undergo EVT by NCCT (73.4%) and 223 (26.6%) who were medically managed. In IPTW analyses, there was a more favorable 90-day ordinal mRS shift in patients selected by NCCT to EVT vs those who were medically managed (odds ratio [OR] 1.99, 95% CI 1.53-2.59; p < 0.001). There were higher rates of 90-day functional independence (mRS 0-2) in the EVT group (40.1% vs 18.4%, OR 3.31, 95% CI 2.11-5.20; p < 0.001). sICH was nonsignificantly higher in the EVT group (8.5% vs 1.4%, OR 3.77, 95% CI 0.72-19.7, p = 0.12). Mortality at 90 days was lower in the EVT vs MM group (23.9% vs 32.3%, OR 0.61, 95% CI 0.45-0.83, p = 0.002). DISCUSSION In patients with proximal anterior LVO in the extended time window, there was a lower rate of disability and mortality in patients selected with NCCT and CTA to EVT compared with those who were medically managed. These findings support the use of NCCT as a simpler and more inclusive approach to patient selection in the extended window. TRIAL REGISTRATION INFORMATION This study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov under NCT04096248. CLASSIFICATION OF EVIDENCE This study provides Class III evidence that for patients with proximal anterior circulation occlusion presenting with ischemic stroke from 6 to 24 hours, compared with medical management, those undergoing thrombectomy based on NCCT have reduced disability and mortality at 90 days.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The benefit of endovascular therapy (EVT) among stroke patients with large ischemic core (ASPECTS 0-5) in the extended time window outside of trial settings remains unclear. We analyzed the effect of EVT among these stroke patients in real-world settings. PATIENTS AND METHODS The CT for Late Endovascular Reperfusion (CLEAR) study recruited patients from 66 centers in 10 countries between 01/2014 and 05/2022. The extended time-window was defined as 6-24 h from last-seen-well to treatment. The primary outcome was shift of the 3-month modified Rankin scale (mRS) score. Safety outcomes included symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) and mortality. Outcomes were analyzed with ordinal and logistic regressions. RESULTS Among 5098 screened patients, 2451 were included in the analysis (median age 73, 55% women). Of patients with ASPECTS 0-5 (n = 310), receiving EVT (n = 209/310) was associated with lower 3-month mRS when compared to medical management (median 4 IQR 3-6 vs 6 IQR 4-6; aOR 0.4, 95% CI 0.2-0.7). Patients undergoing EVT had higher sICH (11.2% vs 4.0%; aOR 4.1, 95% CI 1.2-18.8) and lower mortality (31.6% vs 58.4%, aOR 0.4; 95% CI 0.2-0.9) compared to medically managed patients. The relative benefit of EVT was comparable between patients with ASPECTS 0 and 5 and 6-10 in the extended time window (interaction aOR 0.9; 95% CI 0.5-1.7). CONCLUSION In the extended time window, patients with ASPECTS 0-5 may have preserved relative treatment benefit of EVT compared to patients with ASPECTS 6-10. These findings are in line with recent trials showing benefit of EVT among real-world patients with large ischemic core in the extended time window.

Abstract
Background: Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) with isolated posterior cerebral artery occlusion (iPCAO) lacks management evidence from randomized trials. We aimed to evaluate whether the association between endovascular treatment (EVT) and outcomes in iPCAO-AIS is modified by initial stroke severity (baseline NIHSS) and arterial occlusion site. Methods: Based on the multicenter, retrospective, case-control study of consecutive iPCAO-AIS patients (PLATO study), we assessed the heterogeneity of EVT outcomes compared to medical management (MM) for iPCAO, according to baseline NIHSS (≤6 vs. >6) and occlusion site (P1 vs. P2), using multivariable regression modelling with interaction terms. The primary outcome was the favorable shift of 3-month mRS. Secondary outcomes included excellent outcome (mRS 0-1), functional independence (mRS 0-2), symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) and mortality. Results: From 1344 patients assessed for eligibility, 1,059 were included (median age 74 years, 43.7% women, 41.3% had intravenous thrombolysis), 364 receiving EVT and 695 MM. Baseline stroke severity did not modify the association of EVT with 3-month mRS distribution (pint=0.312), but did with functional independence (pint=0.010), with a similar trend on excellent outcome (pint=0.069). EVT was associated with more favorable outcomes than MM in patients with baseline NIHSS>6 (mRS 0-1: 30.6% vs. 17.7%, aOR=2.01, 95%CI=1.22-3.31; mRS 0-2: 46.1% vs. 31.9%, aOR=1.64, 95%CI=1.08-2.51), but not in those with NIHSS≤6 (mRS 0-1: 43.8% vs. 46.3%, aOR=0.90, 95%CI=0.49-1.64; mRS 0-2: 65.3% vs. 74.3%, aOR=0.55, 95%CI=0.30-1.0). EVT was associated with more sICH regardless of baseline NIHSS (pint=0.467), while the mortality increase was more pronounced in patients with NIHSS≤6 (pint=0.044, NIHSS≤6: aOR=7.95,95%CI=3.11-20.28, NIHSS>6: aOR=1.98,95%CI=1.08-3.65). Arterial occlusion site did not modify the association of EVT with outcomes compared to MM. Conclusion: Baseline clinical stroke severity, rather than the occlusion site, may be an important modifier of the association between EVT and outcomes in iPCAO. Only severely affected patients with iPCAO (NIHSS>6) had more favorable disability outcomes with EVT than MM, despite increased mortality and sICH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Collaterals are important in large vessel occlusions (LVO), but the role of carotid artery disease (CAD) in this context remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the impact of CAD on intracranial collateralization and infarct growth after thrombectomy in LVO. MATERIALS AND METHODS All patients who underwent thrombectomy due to M1 segment occlusion from 01/2015 to 12/2021 were retrospectively included. Internal carotid artery stenosis according to NASCET was assessed on the affected and nonaffected sides. Collaterals were assessed according to the Tan score. Infarct growth was quantified by comparing ASPECTS on follow-up imaging with baseline ASPECTS. RESULTS In total, 709 patients were included, 118 (16.6%) of whom presented with CAD (defined as severe stenosis ≥70% or occlusion ipsilaterally), with 42 cases (5.9%) being contralateral. Good collateralization (Tan 3) was present in 56.5% of the patients with ipsilateral CAD and 69.1% of the patients with contralateral CAD. The ipsilateral stenosis grade was an independent predictor of good collateral supply (adjusted OR: 1.01; NASCET point, 95% CI: 1.00-1.01; P = .009), whereas the contralateral stenosis grade was not (P = .34). Patients with ipsilateral stenosis of ≥70% showed less infarct growth (median ASPECTS decay: 1; IQR: 0-2) compared with patients with 0%-69% stenosis (median: 2; IQR: 1-3) (P = .005). However, baseline ASPECTS was significantly lower in patients with stenosis of 70%-100% (P < .001). The results of a multivariate analysis revealed that increasing ipsilateral stenosis grade (adjusted OR: 1.0; 95% CI: 0.99-1.00; P = .004) and good collateralization (adjusted OR: 0.5; 95% CI: 0.4-0.62; P < .001) were associated with less infarct growth. CONCLUSIONS CAD of the ipsilateral ICA is an independent predictor of good collateral supply. Patients with CAD tend to have larger baseline infarct size but less infarct growth.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The optimal antiplatelet regimen after flow diverter treatment of cerebral aneurysms is still a matter of debate. A single antiplatelet therapy might be advantageous in determined clinical scenarios. This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of prasugrel single antiplatelet therapy versus aspirin and clopidogrel dual antiplatelet therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a post hoc analysis of 4 retrospective multicenter studies including ruptured and unruptured aneurysms treated with flow diversion using either prasugrel single antiplatelet therapy or dual antiplatelet therapy. Primary end points were the occurrence of any kind of procedure- or device-related thromboembolic complications and complete aneurysm occlusion at the latest radiologic follow-up (mean, 18 months). Dichotomized comparisons of outcomes were performed between single antiplatelet therapy and dual antiplatelet therapy. Additionally, the influence of various patient- and aneurysm-related variables on the occurrence of thromboembolic complications was investigated using multivariable backward logistic regression. RESULTS A total of 222 patients with 251 aneurysms were included, 90 (40.5%) in the single antiplatelet therapy and 132 (59.5%) in the dual antiplatelet therapy group. The primary outcome-procedure- or device-related thromboembolic complications-occurred in 6 patients (6.6%) of the single antiplatelet therapy and in 12 patients (9.0%) of the dual antiplatelet therapy group (P = .62; OR, 0.712; 95% CI, 0.260-1.930). The primary treatment efficacy end point was reached in 82 patients (80.4%) of the single antiplatelet therapy and in 115 patients (78.2%) of the dual antiplatelet therapy group (P = .752; OR, 1.141; 95% CI, 0.599-2.101). Logistic regression showed that non-surface-modified flow diverters (P = .014) and fusiform aneurysm morphology (P = .004) significantly increased the probability of thromboembolic complications. CONCLUSIONS Prasugrel single antiplatelet therapy after flow diverter treatment may be as safe and effective as dual antiplatelet therapy and could, therefore, be a valid alternative in selected patients. Further prospective comparative studies are required to validate our findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This multicenter study evaluated the safety and efficacy of coated flow diverters (cFDs) for the treatment of ruptured intracranial aneurysms. METHODS Consecutive patients treated with different cFDs for ruptured aneurysms under tirofiban at eight neurovascular centers between 2016 and 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The majority of patients were loaded with dual antiplatelet therapy after the treatment. Aneurysm occlusion was determined using the O'Kelly-Marotta (OKM) grading scale. Primary outcome measures were major procedural complications and aneurysmal rebleeding during hospitalization. RESULTS The study included 60 aneurysms (posterior circulation: 28 (47%)) with a mean size of 5.8±4.7 mm. Aneurysm morphology was saccular in 28 (47%), blister-like in 12 (20%), dissecting in 13 (22%), and fusiform in 7 (12%). Technical success was 100% with a mean of 1.1 cFDs implanted per aneurysm. Adjunctive coiling was performed in 11 (18%) aneurysms. Immediate contrast retention was observed in 45 (75%) aneurysms. There was 1 (2%) major procedural complication (a major stroke, eventually leading to death) and no aneurysmal rebleeding. A good outcome (modified Rankin Scale 0-2) was achieved in 40 (67%) patients. At a mean follow-up of 6 months, 27/34 (79%) aneurysms were completely occluded (OKM D), 3/34 (9%) had an entry remnant (OKM C), and 4/34 (12%) had residual filling (OKM A or B). There was 1 (3%) severe in-stent stenosis during follow-up that was treated with balloon angioplasty. CONCLUSIONS Treatment of ruptured aneurysms with cFDs was reasonably safe and efficient and thus represents a valid treatment option, especially for complex cases.

Abstract
PURPOSE Our purpose was to assess the efficacy and safety of the pRESET LITE stent retriever (Phenox, Bochum, Germany), designed for medium vessel occlusion (MeVO) in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with a primary MeVO. METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis of the MAD MT Consortium, an integration of prospectively maintained databases at 37 academic institutions in Europe, North America, and Asia, of AIS patients who underwent mechanical thrombectomy with the pRESET LITE stent retriever for a primary MeVO. We subcategorized occlusions into proximal MeVOs (segments A1, M2, and P1) vs. distal MeVOs/DMVO (segments A2, M3-M4, and P2). We reviewed patient and procedural characteristics, as well as angiographic and clinical outcomes. RESULTS Between September 2016 and December 2021, 227 patients were included (50% female, median age 78 [65-84] years), of whom 161 (71%) suffered proximal MeVO and 66 (29%) distal MeVO. Using a combined approach in 96% of cases, successful reperfusion of the target vessel (mTICI 2b/2c/3) was attained in 85% of proximal MeVO and 97% of DMVO, with a median of 2 passes (IQR: 1-3) overall. Periprocedural complications rate was 7%. Control CT at day 1 post-MT revealed a hemorrhagic transformation in 63 (39%) patients with proximal MeVO and 24 (36%) patients with DMVO, with ECASS-PH type hemorrhagic transformations occurring in 3 (1%) patients. After 3 months, 58% of all MeVO and 63% of DMVO patients demonstrated a favorable outcome (mRS 0-2). CONCLUSION Mechanical thrombectomy using the pRESET LITE in a combined approach with an aspiration catheter appears effective for primary medium vessel occlusions across several centers and physicians.

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
INTRODUCTION First pass effect (FPE), achievement of complete recanalization (mTICI 2c/3) with a single pass, is a significant predictor of favorable outcomes for endovascular treatment (EVT) in large vessel occlusion stroke (LVO). However, data concerning the impact on functional outcomes and predictors of FPE in medium vessel occlusions (MeVO) are scarce. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted an international retrospective study on MeVO cases. Multivariable logistic modeling was used to establish independent predictors of FPE. Clinical and safety outcomes were compared between the two study groups (FPE vs non-FPE) using logistic regression models. Good outcome was defined as modified Rankin Scale 0-2 at 3 months. RESULTS Eight hundred thirty-six patients with a final mTICI ⩾ 2b were included in this analysis. FPE was observed in 302 patients (36.1%). In multivariable analysis, hypertension (aOR 1.55, 95% CI 1.10-2.20) and lower baseline NIHSS score (aOR 0.95, 95% CI 0.93-0.97) were independently associated with an FPE. Good outcomes were more common in the FPE versus non-FPE group (72.8% vs 52.8%), and FPE was independently associated with favorable outcome (aOR 2.20, 95% CI 1.59-3.05). 90-day mortality and intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) were significantly lower in the FPE group, 0.43 (95% CI, 0.25-0.72) and 0.55 (95% CI, 0.39-0.77), respectively. CONCLUSION Over 2/3 of patients with MeVOs and FPE in our cohort had a favorable outcome at 90 days. FPE is independently associated with favorable outcomes, it may reduce the risk of any intracranial hemorrhage, and 3-month mortality.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cerebral infarctions caused by air embolisms (AE) are a feared risk in endovascular procedures; however, the relevance and pathophysiology of these AEs is still largely unclear. The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of the origin (aorta, carotid artery or right atrium) and number of air bubbles on cerebral infarctions in an experimental in vivo model. METHODS In 20 rats 1200 or 2000 highly calibrated micro air bubbles (MAB) with a size of 85 µm were injected at the aortic valve (group Ao), into the common carotid artery (group CA) or into the right atrium (group RA) using a microcatheter via a transfemoral access, resembling endovascular interventions in humans. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using a 9.4T system was performed 1 h after MAB injection followed by finalization. RESULTS The number (5.5 vs. 5.5 median) and embolic patterns of infarctions did not significantly differ between groups Ao and CA. The number of infarctions were significantly higher comparing 2000 and 1200 injected MABs (6 vs. 4.5; p < 0.001). The infarctions were significantly larger for group CA (median infarction volume: 0.41 mm3 vs. 0.19 mm3; p < 0.001). In group RA and in the control group no infarctions were detected. Histopathological analyses showed early signs of ischemic stroke. CONCLUSION Iatrogenic AEs originating at the ascending aorta cause a similar number and pattern of cerebral infarctions compared to those with origin at the carotid artery. These findings underline the relevance and potential risk of AE occurring during endovascular interventions at the aortic valve and ascending aorta.

Abstract
PURPOSE The benefit of endovascular treatment (EVT) in patients with acute symptomatic isolated occlusion of the internal carotid artery (ICA) without involvement of the middle and anterior cerebral arteries is unclear. We aimed to compare clinical and safety outcomes of best medical treatment (BMT) versus EVT + BMT in patients with stroke due to isolated ICA occlusion. METHODS We conducted a retrospective multicenter study involving patients with isolated ICA occlusion between January 2016 and December 2020. We stratified patients by BMT versus EVT and matched the groups using propensity score matching (PSM). We assessed the effect of treatment strategy on favorable outcome (modified Rankin scale ≤ 2) 90 days after treatment and compared reduction in NIHSS score at discharge, rates of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) and 3‑month mortality. RESULTS In total, we included 149 patients with isolated ICA occlusion. To address imbalances, we matched 45 patients from each group using PSM. The rate of favorable outcomes at 90 days was 56% for EVT and 38% for BMT (odds ratio, OR 1.89, 95% confidence interval, CI 0.84-4.24; p = 0.12). Patients treated with EVT showed a median reduction in NIHSS score at discharge of 6 points compared to 1 point for BMT patients (p = 0.02). Rates of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (7% vs. 4%; p = 0.66) and 3‑month mortality (11% vs. 13%; p = 0.74) did not differ between treatment groups. Periprocedural complications of EVT with early neurological deterioration occurred in 7% of cases. CONCLUSION Although the benefit on functional outcome did not reach statistical significance, the results for NIHSS score improvement, and safety support the use of EVT in patients with stroke due to isolated ICA occlusion.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study focuses on long-term outcomes after aneurysm treatment with either the Flow Re-Direction Endoluminal Device (FRED) or the FRED Jr. to investigate the durability of treatment effect and long-term complications. METHODS This study is based on a retrospective analysis of a prospectively maintained patient data base. Patients treated with either FRED or FRED Jr. between 2013 and 2017 at our institution, and thus a possibility for ≥ 5 years of follow-up, were included. Aneurysm occlusion rates, recurrence rates, modified Rankin scale score shifts to baseline, and delayed complications were assessed. RESULTS In this study 68 patients with 84 aneurysms had long-term follow-up with a mean duration of 57.3 months and 44 patients harboring 52 aneurysms had a follow-up ≥ 5 years with a mean follow-up period of 69.2 months. Complete occlusion was reached in 77.4% at 2 years and increased to 84.9% when the latest available imaging result was considered. Younger age and the absence of branch involvement were predictors for aneurysm occlusion in linear regression analysis. After the 2‑year threshold, there were 3 reported symptomatic non-serious adverse events. Of these, one patient had a minor stroke, one a transitory ischemic attack and one had persistent mass effect symptoms due to a giant aneurysm, none of these resulted in subsequent neurological disability. CONCLUSION This long-term follow-up study demonstrates that the FRED and FRED Jr. are safe and effective for the treatment of cerebral aneurysms in the long term, with high rates of complete occlusion and low rates of delayed adverse events.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) has revolutionized the treatment of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) due to large vessel occlusion (LVO), but its efficacy and safety in medium vessel occlusion (MeVO) remain less explored. This multicenter, retrospective study aims to investigate the incidence and clinical outcomes of vessel perforations (confirmed by extravasation during an angiographic series) during MT for AIS caused by MeVO. METHODS Data were collected from 37 academic centers across North America, Asia, and Europe between September 2017 and July 2021. A total of 1373 AIS patients with MeVO underwent MT. Baseline characteristics, procedural details, and clinical outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS The incidence of vessel perforation was 4.8% (66/1373). Notably, our analysis indicates variations in perforation rates across different arterial segments: 8.9% in M3 segments, 4.3% in M2 segments, and 8.3% in A2 segments (p = 0.612). Patients with perforation had significantly worse outcomes, with lower rates of favorable angiographic outcomes (TICI 2c-3: 23% vs 58.9%, p < 0.001; TICI 2b-3: 56.5% vs 88.3%, p < 0.001). Functional outcomes were also worse in the perforation group (mRS 0-1 at 3 months: 22.7% vs 36.6%, p = 0.031; mRS 0-2 at 3 months: 28.8% vs 53.9%, p < 0.001). Mortality was higher in the perforation group (30.3% vs 16.8%, p = 0.008). CONCLUSION This study reveals that while the occurrence of vessel perforation in MT for AIS due to MeVO is relatively rare, it is associated with poor functional outcomes and higher mortality. The findings highlight the need for increased caution and specialized training in performing MT for MeVO. Further prospective research is required for risk mitigation strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Numerous questions regarding procedural details of distal stroke thrombectomy remain unanswered. This study assesses the effect of anesthetic strategies on procedural, clinical and safety outcomes following thrombectomy for distal medium vessel occlusions (DMVOs). METHODS Patients with isolated DMVO stroke from the TOPMOST registry were analyzed with regard to anesthetic strategies (ie, conscious sedation (CS), local (LA) or general anesthesia (GA)). Occlusions were in the P2/P3 or A2-A4 segments of the posterior and anterior cerebral arteries (PCA and ACA), respectively. The primary endpoint was the rate of complete reperfusion (modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction score 3) and the secondary endpoint was the rate of modified Rankin Scale score 0-1. Safety endpoints were the occurrence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and mortality. RESULTS Overall, 233 patients were included. The median age was 75 years (range 64-82), 50.6% (n=118) were female, and the baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score was 8 (IQR 4-12). DMVOs were in the PCA in 59.7% (n=139) and in the ACA in 40.3% (n=94). Thrombectomy was performed under LA±CS (51.1%, n=119) and GA (48.9%, n=114). Complete reperfusion was reached in 73.9% (n=88) and 71.9% (n=82) in the LA±CS and GA groups, respectively (P=0.729). In subgroup analysis, thrombectomy for ACA DMVO favored GA over LA±CS (aOR 3.07, 95% CI 1.24 to 7.57, P=0.015). Rates of secondary and safety outcomes were similar in the LA±CS and GA groups. CONCLUSION LA±CS compared with GA resulted in similar reperfusion rates after thrombectomy for DMVO stroke of the ACA and PCA. GA may facilitate achieving complete reperfusion in DMVO stroke of the ACA. Safety and functional long-term outcomes were comparable in both groups.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Multiple variables beyond the extent of recanalization can impact the clinical outcome after acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusions. Here, we assessed the influence of small vessel disease and cortical atrophy on clinical outcome using native cranial computed tomography (NCCT) in a large single-center cohort. METHODS A total of 1103 consecutive patients who underwent endovascular treatment (EVT) due to occlusion of the middle cerebral artery territory were included. NCCT data were visually assessed for established markers of age-related white matter changes (ARWMC) and brain atrophy. All images were evaluated separately by two readers to assess the inter-observer variability. Regression and machine learning models were built to determine the predictive relevance of ARWMC and atrophy in the presence of important baseline clinical and imaging metrics. RESULTS Patients with favorable outcome presented lower values for all measured metrics of pre-existing brain deterioration (p < 0.001). Both ARWMC (p < 0.05) and cortical atrophy (p < 0.001) were independent predictors of clinical outcome at 90 days when controlled for confounders in both regression analyses and led to a minor improvement of prediction accuracy in machine learning models (p < 0.001), with atrophy among the top-5 predictors. CONCLUSION NCCT-based cortical atrophy and ARWMC scores on NCCT were strong and independent predictors of clinical outcome after EVT. CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT Visual assessment of cortical atrophy and age-related white matter changes on CT could improve the prediction of clinical outcome after thrombectomy in machine learning models which may be integrated into existing clinical routines and facilitate patient selection. KEY POINTS • Cortical atrophy and age-related white matter changes were quantified using CT-based visual scores. • Atrophy and age-related white matter change scores independently predicted clinical outcome after mechanical thrombectomy and improved machine learning-based prediction models. • Both scores could easily be integrated into existing clinical routines and prediction models.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between sex and outcome after endovascular thrombectomy of acute ischemic stroke is unclear. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical and safety outcomes between men and women treated with endovascular thrombectomy in the late 6-to-24-hour window period. METHODS This multicenter, retrospective observational cohort study included consecutive patients who underwent endovascular thrombectomy of anterior circulation stroke in the late window from 66 clinical sites in 10 countries from January 2014 to May 2022. The primary outcome was the 90-day ordinal modified Rankin Scale score. Secondary outcomes included 90-day functional independence (FI), return of Rankin (RoR) to prestroke baseline, FI or RoR, symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage, and mortality. Multivariable and inverse probability of treatment weighting methods were used. We explored the interaction of sex with baseline characteristics on the outcomes ordinal modified Rankin Scale and FI or RoR. RESULTS Of 1932 patients, 1055 were women and 877 were men. Women were older (77 versus 69 years), had higher rates of atrial fibrillation, hypertension, and greater prestroke disability, but there was no difference in baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score. Inverse probability of treatment weighting analysis showed no difference between women and men in ordinal modified Rankin Scale (odds ratio, 0.98 [95% CI, 0.79-1.21]), FI or RoR (odds ratio, 0.98 [95% CI, 0.78-1.22]), severe disability or mortality (odds ratio, 0.99 [95% CI, 0.80-1.23]). The multivariable analysis of the above end points was concordant. There were no interactions between baseline characteristics and sex on the outcomes of ordinal modified Rankin Scale and FI or RoR. CONCLUSIONS In late presenting patients with anterior circulation stroke treated with endovascular thrombectomy in the 6 to 24-hour window, there was no difference in clinical or safety outcomes between men and women.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Flat detector computed tomography (FDCT) is frequently applied for periinterventional brain imaging within the angiography suite. Novel technical developments such as the Sine Spin FDCT (S-FDCT) may provide an improved cerebral soft tissue contrast. This study investigates the effect of S-FDCT on the differentiation between gray and white matter compared to conventional FDCT (C-FDCT) and multidetector computed tomography (MDCT). METHODS A retrospective analysis of a prospectively maintained patient database was performed, including patients who underwent mechanical thrombectomy in our institution and received S-FDCT or C-FDCT as well as MDCT. Differentiation between gray and white matter on the contralateral hemisphere to the ischemic stroke was analyzed quantitatively by contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) and qualitatively (5-point ordinal scale). RESULTS In a cohort of 109 patients, MDCT demonstrated the best differentiation between gray and white matter compared to both FDCT techniques (p ≤ 0.001). Comparing both generations of FDCT, S-FDCT provided better visibility of the basal ganglia (p = 0.045) and the supratentorial cortex (p = 0.044) compared to C-FDCT both in quantitative and qualitative analyses. Median CNR were as follows: S-FDCT 2.41 (interquartile range [IQR] 1.66-3.21), C-FDCT 0.96 (0.46-1.70), MDCT 3.43 (2.83-4.17). For basal ganglia, median score and IQR were as follows: S-FDCT 2.00 (2.00-3.00), C-FDCT 1.50 (1.00-2.00), MDCT 5.00 (4.00-5.00). CONCLUSIONS The novel S-FDCT improves the periinterventional imaging quality of cerebral soft tissue compared to C-FDCT. Thus, it may improve the diagnosis of complications within the angiography suite. MDCT provides the best option for x-ray-based imaging of the brain tissue. RELEVANCE STATEMENT Flat detector computed tomography is a promising technique for cerebral soft tissue imaging, while the novel Sine Spin flat detector computed tomography technique improves imaging quality compared to conventional flat detector computed tomography and thus may facilitate periinterventional diagnosis of gray and white matter. KEY POINTS • Flat detector computed tomography (FDCT) is frequently applied for periinterventional brain imaging. • The potential of novel Sine Spin FDCT (S-FDCT) is unknown so far. • S-FDCT improves the visibility of cerebral soft tissue compared to conventional FDCT. • Multidetector computed tomography is superior to both FDCT techniques. • S-FDCT may facilitate the evaluation of brain parenchyma within the angiography suite.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dural sinus malformations (DSMs) associated with high flow arteriovenous shunts are a challenging disease in babies that can lead to severe neurological damage or death. We report our treatment strategy in seven consecutive DSMs. METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis of seven consecutive patients from four centres, treated with transarterial embolization and anticoagulants. RESULTS Mean clinical and imaging follow-up was 2.8 years (IQR1-3 1.8-5.3). At baseline, the median size of the dilated venous pouch (giant lake) was 35 mm (IQR1-3 24-41) that decreased to a normal or near normal venous collector diameter of median size 11.5 mm (IQR1-3 8.5-13.8). This was achieved after a median of two embolization sessions targeted on dural feeders (IQR1-3 1.5-2.5), leaving associated pial feeders untreated. There were no cerebral hemorrhagic complications during the anticoagulation treatment. Median percentage of shunt remaining after embolization was 30% (IQR1-3 12-30), which spontaneously decreased with anticoagulation and even after discontinuation of anticoagulation, in parallel with the reduction in diameter of the dilated sinus, up to healing (or near healing). At the last clinical assessment, the modified Rankin Scale score was 0 in four patients, 1 in one patient, and 3 in two patients. CONCLUSIONS Anticoagulants may help to potentiate transarterial embolization in DSMs in babies by decreasing venous dilatation and reducing the remaining arteriovenous shunt, particularly the pial feeders. We did not observe recurrence of arteriovenous shunts after treatment, especially during anticoagulation treatment. Further studies are needed to support our findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients treated with mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for acute ischemic strokes from large vessel occlusion (LVO) have better outcomes with effective reperfusion. However, it is unknown which technique leads to better technical and clinical success. We aimed to determine which technique yields the most effective first pass reperfusion during MT. METHODS In a prospective, multicenter global registry we enrolled patients treated with operator preferred MT technique at 71 hospitals from January 2019 to January 2022. Three techniques were assessed: SR Classic with stent retriever (SR) and balloon guide catheter (BGC); SR Combination which employed SR with contact aspiration with or without BGC; and direct aspiration (DA) with or without BGC. The primary outcome was achieving an expanded Thrombolysis In Cerebral Infarction (eTICI) score of 2c or 3 on the first pass, with the primary technique as adjudicated by core lab. The primary clinical outcome measure was a 90-day modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score of 0-2. RESULTS A total of 1492 patients were enrolled. Patients treated with SR Classic or SR Combination were more likely to achieve first pass eTICI 2c or 3 reperfusion (P=0.01). There was no significant difference in mRS 0-2 (P=0.46) or safety endpoints. CONCLUSIONS The use of SR Classic or SR Combination was more likely to achieve first pass eTICI 2c or 3 reperfusion. There were no significant differences in clinical outcomes and safety endpoints.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-ischemic cerebral enhancing (NICE) lesions have been reported as a rare complication of various neuroendovascular procedures, but information on their incidence after flow diversion is scant. It is unclear if specific devices or novel coating technologies may impact their occurrence. METHODS We conducted a multicenter study on the incidence of NICE lesions after flow diverter (FD) implantation for cerebral aneurysm treatment. RESULTS Eight centers identified 15 patients and provided detailed data. The clinical presentation ranged from asymptomatic to hemiplegia and cognitive impairment. The mean time to diagnosis after treatment was 65.1±101.5 days. Five centers disclosed information on all of their 1201 FD procedures during the inclusion period (2015-2022), during which 12 patients were diagnosed with NICE lesions in these institutions-that is, an incidence of 1%. FD coatings did not increase the incidence (6/591 patients (1%) treated with surface-modified FD vs 6/610 patients (1%) treated with bare FD; P=1.00). Significantly increased rates of 3.7% (6 cases in 161 procedures; P<0.01) and 3.3% (5 cases in 153 procedures; P<0.01) were found with stents of two specific product lines. The use of one product line was associated with a significantly lower incidence (0 cases in 499 procedures (0%); P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS Novel stent coatings are not associated with an increased incidence of NICE lesions. The incidence rate of 1% suggests that these lesions may occur more often after flow diversion than after other endovascular treatments. We found a concerning accumulation of NICE lesion cases when FDs from two product families were used.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the effectiveness, safety, and predictors of outcomes and adverse events for percutaneous sclerotherapy using polidocanol for the treatment of venous malformations (VMs). METHODS A retrospective single-center analysis was performed, including patients with VMs who were treated with sclerotherapy using polidocanol between January 2011 and November 2021 at a tertiary center. Demographic characteristics, clinical data, and radiologic features were analyzed, and the influence of patient- and VM-related factors on the subjective clinical outcome and adverse events were investigated using a multivariate logistic regression analysis. RESULTS In total, 167 patients who received 325 treatment sessions were included in this study. Overall symptom improvement was observed in 67.5%, stable symptoms were observed in 25.0%, and worsening was reported in 7.5% (clinical follow-up, 1.04 ± 1.67 years). The total adverse event rate was 10.2%, with an overall rate of 4.2% for permanent adverse events within the cohort. In multivariate analysis, the clinical outcome was worse in children (P = .01; 57.1% symptom improvement in children [age, <18 years] and 79.7% in adults), and adverse events were more frequently observed after the treatment of VMs located at the extremities (P < .01; 8.4% for VMs of the extremities and 1.2% for VMs in other locations). CONCLUSIONS Sclerotherapy using polidocanol can be an effective treatment option for VMs with an acceptable safety profile. However, it can be less effective in children, and adverse events can be more frequently expected for VMs of the extremities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Quantitative and automated volumetric evaluation of early ischemic changes on non-contrast CT (NCCT) has recently been proposed as a new tool to improve prognostic performance in patients undergoing endovascular therapy (EVT) for acute ischemic stroke (AIS). We aimed to test its clinical value compared with the Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS) in a large single-institutional patient cohort. METHODS A total of 1103 patients with AIS due to large vessel occlusion in the M1 or proximal M2 segments who underwent NCCT and EVT between January 2013 and November 2019 were retrospectively enrolled. Acute ischemic volumes (AIV) and ASPECTS were generated from the baseline NCCT through e-ASPECTS (Brainomix). Correlations were tested using Spearman's coefficient. The predictive capabilities of AIV for a favorable outcome (modified Rankin Scale score at 90 days ≤2) were tested using multivariable logistic regression as well as machine-learning models. Performance of the models was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and differences were tested using DeLong's test. RESULTS Patients with a favorable outcome had a significantly lower AIV (median 12.0 mL (IQR 5.7-21.7) vs 18.8 mL (IQR 9.4-33.9), p<0.001). AIV was highly correlated with ASPECTS (rho=0.78, p<0.001) and weakly correlated with the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score at baseline (rho=0.22, p<0.001), and was an independent predictor of an unfavorable clinical outcome (adjusted OR 0.97, 95% CI 0.96 to 0.98). No significant difference was found between machine-learning models using either AIV or ASPECTS or both metrics for predicting a good clinical outcome (p>0.05). CONCLUSION AIV is an independent predictor of clinical outcome and presented a non-inferior performance compared with ASPECTS, without clear advantages for prognostic modelling.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endovascular embolization is a feasible treatment for cranial dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs). New embolic agents aim to improve the success of DAVF embolization. OBJECTIVE To assess the safety, efficacy, and short-term outcome of the treatment of DAVFs using the new liquid embolic agent Squid. METHODS The LIQUID study is a prospective, observational multicenter study on the treatment of high-grade (Cognard type ≥3) DAVFs with the embolic agent Squid. The primary outcome measures were safety (ie, morbidity and mortality), as well as the occlusion rate 90 to 180 days after treatment. RESULTS In eight centers, 53 patients (mean age 59.8 years, 22.6% female) were treated in 55 treatment sessions. Of the DAVFs, 56.6% were Cognard type III, 41.5% type IV, and 18.9% were ruptured. Squid 18 was used in 83.6% and Squid 12 in 32.7% of the treatments. The overall rate of intraprocedural or postprocedural adverse events (AEs) was 18.2%. Procedure-related AEs resulting in permanent morbidity were observed in 3.6%. One patient (1.8%) died unrelated to the procedure due to pulmonary embolism. The final complete occlusion rate at 90 to 180 days was 93.2%. After a mean follow-up of 5.5 months, the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score was stable or improved in 93.0%. In one of the patients, worsening of the mRS score was related to the procedure (1.8%). CONCLUSION Squid is a safe and effective liquid embolic agent for the treatment of high-grade DAVFs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intrasaccular flow disruption is an endovascular approach for the treatment of wide-neck aneurysms and, more specifically, wide-neck bifurcation aneurysms, which are challenging to treat with previously developed technologies. The Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device has demonstrated its efficacy and safety, for both unruptured and ruptured aneurysms. METHODS The CLEVER study was an observational, multicenter, prospective study conducted in 17 European investigational sites using the WEB 17 device, for the treatment of ruptured and unruptured aneurysms. The study objective was to provide safety and efficacy data on the WEB 17 device in the treatment of wide-neck bifurcation aneurysms. Imaging results were assessed independently by a Corelab and adverse events adjudicated by a Clinical Event Adjudicator. This analysis reports procedural results and safety at 30 days and 12 months. RESULTS A total of 163 patients (mean age 58.1 years; 68.1% women) with 103 unruptured aneurysms and 60 ruptured aneurysms were enrolled. Most aneurysms were located on the anterior communicating artery (ACom) (37.4%) or the middle cerebral artery (MCA) bifurcation (30.1%). Aneurysm widths ranged from 2.0-9.2 mm, and the mean sac width was 5.0 mm. The WEB procedure was successfully completed in 163 patients (100%). At the 12-month follow-up, major stroke events occurred in 3 of 163 patients (1.8%), and no device-related mortality was observed. CONCLUSION Endovascular treatment of ruptured and unruptured wide-neck bifurcation aneurysms using WEB 17 is safe, with a low complication rate and no device-related mortality. In particular, none of the ruptured aneurysms bled again up to 1 year of follow-up. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT03844334.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Optimal blood pressure (BP) management during endovascular stroke treatment is not well established. We studied whether an individualized approach for managing BP during endovascular stroke treatment gives a better clinical outcome than an approach with standardized systolic BP targets. METHODS The INDIVIDUATE study (Individualized Blood Pressure Management During Endovascular Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke Under Procedural Sedation) is a randomized clinical trial with a prospective randomized open blinded end point (PROBE) design. Patients were recruited between October 1, 2020 and July 7, 2022 at a single center at a tertiary care university hospital. Patients were eligible, when they were suffering from acute ischemic stroke of the anterior circulation with occlusions of the internal carotid artery and middle cerebral artery and a National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score of ≥8 receiving endovascular stroke treatment in procedural sedation. The intervention consists of an individualized BP management strategy, where preinterventional baseline systolic BP (SBP) values are used as intraprocedural BP targets. As a control, the standard treatment aims to maintain the intraprocedural SBP between 140 and 180 mm Hg. The main prespecified outcome is the proportion of favorable functional outcomes 90 days after stroke, defined as a modified Rankin Scale score of 0 to 2. RESULTS Two hundred fifty patients were enrolled and included in the analysis, mean (SD) age was 77 (12) years, 142 (57%) patients were women, and mean (SD) National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score on admission was 17 (5.2). In all, 123 (49%) patients were treated with individualized and 127 (51%) with standard BP management. Mean (SD) intraprocedural SBP was similar in the individualized versus standard BP management group (157 [19] versus 154 [18] mm Hg; P=0.16). The rate of favorable functional outcome after 3 months was not significantly different between the individualized versus the standard BP management group (25% versus 24%; adjusted odds ratio, 0.81 [95% CI, 0.41-1.61]; P=0.56). CONCLUSIONS Among patients treated with endovascular stroke treatment due to an acute ischemic stroke of the anterior circulation, no significant difference was seen between the individualized BP management strategy, where intraprocedural SBP was targeted to baseline values, and the standardized regimen of targeting SBP between 140 and 180 mm Hg.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cerebral infarctions resulting from iatrogenic air embolism (AE), mainly caused by small air bubbles, are a well-known and often overlooked event in endovascular interventions. Despite their significance, the underlying pathophysiology remains largely unclear. METHODS In 24 rats, AEs were induced using a microcatheter, positioned in the carotid artery via femoral access. Rats were divided into two study groups, based on the size of the bubbles (85 and 120 µm) and two sub-groups, differing in air volume (0.39 and 0.64 µl). Ultra-high-field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed 1.5 hours after intervention. MRI findings including the number, single volume and total volume of the infarctions were assessed. A software-based numerical simulation was performed to qualitatively assess the microvascular pathomechanisms. RESULTS In the study groups 22 of 24 rats (92%) revealed cerebral infarctions. The number of infarctions per rat was higher for the smaller bubbles, for the lower (medians: 5 vs 3; p=0.049) and higher air volume sub-groups (medians: 6 vs 4; p=0.012). Correspondingly, total infarction volume was higher for the smaller bubbles (1.67 vs 0.5 mm³; p=0.042). Simulations confirmed the results of the experiments and suggested that fusion of microbubbles to larger bubbles is the underlying pathomechanism of vascular occlusions. CONCLUSION In iatrogenic AE, the size of the bubbles can have a major impact on the number and total volume of cerebral infarctions. These findings can help to better understand the pathophysiology of this frequent, often underestimated adverse event in endovascular interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Vasospasm is a common complication of endovascular therapy (EVT). There is a lack of understanding of risk factors for periprocedural vasospasm. Here, we aimed to identify factors associated with vasospasm in patients with acute ischemic stroke who undergo EVT. METHODS We conducted a retrospective single-center analysis of patients receiving EVT for anterior circulation vessel occlusion between January 2015 and December 2021. Patients were excluded if they showed signs of intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) or if they underwent intra-arterial thrombolysis. Study groups were defined as patients developing vasospasm during EVT (V+) and patients who did not (V-). The study groups were compared in univariable analysis. Multivariable regression models were developed to predict the patient's risk for developing vasospasm based on pre-identified potential prognostic factors. The secondary endpoint was clinical outcome defined as the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) difference between pre-stroke mRS and discharge mRS (delta mRS) and likelihood of successful reperfusion (TICI 2b/3). RESULTS In total, 132/1768 patients (7.5%) developed vasospasm during EVT. Vasospasm was more likely to occur in EVT with multiple thrombectomy attempts and after several stent retriever maneuvers. Factors associated with developing vasospasm were younger age (OR = 0.967, 95% CI = 0.96-0.98) and lower pre-stroke mRS (OR = 0.759, 95% CI = 0.63-0.91). The prediction model incorporating patient age, pre-stroke mRS, stent retriever thrombectomy attempts, and total attempts as prognostic factors was found to predict vasospasm with good accuracy (AUC = 0.714, 95% CI = 0.709-0.720). V+ patients showed higher median (IQR) delta mRS (2 (1-4) vs 2 (1-3); p = 0.014). There was no difference in successful reperfusion (TICI 2b-3) between those with or without vasospasm. CONCLUSION Vasospasm was a common complication in EVT affecting younger and previously healthy patients. Presence of vasospasm did not reduce the likelihood of successful reperfusion. As independent predictors, patient age, pre-stroke mRS, thrombectomy maneuvers, and stent retriever attempts predict the occurrence of vasospasm during EVT with good accuracy.

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
PURPOSE Individual regions of the Alberta Stroke Programme Early CT Score (ASPECTS) may contribute differently to the clinical symptoms in large vessel occlusion (LVO). Here, we investigated whether the predictive performance on clinical outcome can be increased by considering specific ASPECTS subregions. METHODS A consecutive series of patients with LVO affecting the middle cerebral artery territory and subsequent endovascular treatment (EVT) between January 2015 and July 2020 was analyzed, including affected ASPECTS regions. A multivariate logistic regression was performed to assess the individual impact of ASPECTS regions on good clinical outcome (defined as modified Rankin scale after 90 days of 0-2). Machine-learning-driven logistic regression models were trained (training = 70%, testing = 30%) to predict good clinical outcome using i) cumulative ASPECTS and ii) location-specific ASPECTS, and their performance compared using deLong's test. Furthermore, additional analyses using binarized as well as linear clinical outcomes using regression and machine-learning techniques were applied to thoroughly assess the potential predictive properties of individual ASPECTS regions and their combinations. RESULTS Of 1109 patients (77.3 years ± 11.6, 43.8% male), 419 achieved a good clinical outcome and a median NIHSS after 24 h of 12 (interquartile range, IQR 4-21). Individual ASPECTS regions showed different impact on good clinical outcome in the multivariate logistic regression, with strongest effects for insula (odds ratio, OR 0.56, 95% confidence interval, CI 0.42-0.75) and M5 (OR 0.53, 95% CI 0.29-0.97) regions. Accuracy (ACC) in predicting good clinical outcome of the test set did not differ between when considering i) cumulative ASPECTS and ii) location-specific ASPECTS (ACC = 0.619, 95% CI 0.58-0.64 vs. ACC = 0.629, 95% CI 0.60-0.65; p = 0.933). CONCLUSION Cumulative ASPECTS assessment in LVO remains a stable and reliable predictor for clinical outcome and is not inferior to a weighted (location-specific) ASPECTS assessment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is the standard of care for patients with a stroke and large vessel occlusion. Clot composition is not routinely assessed in clinical practice as no specific diagnostic value is attributed to it, and MT is performed in a standardized 'non-personalized' approach. Whether different clot compositions are associated with intrinsic likelihoods of recanalization success or treatment outcome is unknown. METHODS We performed a prospective, non-randomized, single-center study and analyzed the clot composition in 60 consecutive patients with ischemic stroke undergoing MT. Clots were assessed by ex vivo multiparametric MRI at 9.4 T (MR microscopy), cone beam CT, and histopathology. Clot imaging was correlated with preinterventional CT and clinical data. RESULTS MR microscopy showed red blood cell (RBC)-rich (21.7%), platelet-rich (white,38.3%) or mixed clots (40.0%) as distinct morphological entities, and MR microscopy had high accuracy of 95.4% to differentiate clots. Clot composition could be further stratified on preinterventional non-contrast head CT by quantification of the hyperdense artery sign. During MT, white clots required more passes to achieve final recanalization and were not amenable to contact aspiration compared with mixed and RBC-rich clots (maneuvers: 4.7 vs 3.1 and 1.2 passes, P<0.05 and P<0.001, respectively), whereas RBC-rich clots showed higher probability of first pass recanalization (76.9%) compared with white clots (17.4%). White clots were associated with poorer clinical outcome at discharge and 90 days after MT. CONCLUSION Our study introduces MR microscopy to show that the hyperdense artery sign or MR relaxometry could guide interventional strategy. This could enable a personalized treatment approach to improve outcome of patients undergoing MT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vessel perforation during thrombectomy is a severe complication and is hypothesized to be more frequent during medium vessel occlusion (MeVO) thrombectomy. The aim of this study was to compare the incidence and outcome of patients with perforation during MeVO and large vessel occlusion (LVO) thrombectomy and to report on the procedural steps that led to perforation. METHODS In this multicenter retrospective cohort study, data of consecutive patients with vessel perforation during thrombectomy between January 1, 2015 and September 30, 2022 were collected. The primary outcomes were independent functional outcome (ie, modified Rankin Scale 0-2) and all-cause mortality at 90 days. Binomial test, chi-squared test and t-test for unpaired samples were used for statistical analysis. RESULTS During 25 769 thrombectomies (5124 MeVO, 20 645 LVO) in 25 stroke centers, perforation occurred in 335 patients (1.3%; mean age 72 years, 62% female). Perforation occurred more often in MeVO thrombectomy (2.4%) than in LVO thrombectomy (1.0%, p<0.001). More MeVO than LVO patients with perforation achieved functional independence at 3 months (25.7% vs 10.9%, p=0.001). All-cause mortality did not differ between groups (overall 51.6%). Navigation beyond the occlusion and retraction of stent retriever/aspiration catheter were the two most common procedural steps that led to perforation. CONCLUSIONS In our cohort, perforation was approximately twice as frequent in MeVO than in LVO thrombectomy. Efforts to optimize the procedure may focus on navigation beyond the occlusion site and retraction of stent retriever/aspiration catheter. Further research is necessary in order to identify thrombectomy candidates at high risk of intraprocedural perforation and to provide data on the effectiveness of endovascular countermeasures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND
For acute proximal intracranial artery occlusions, contact aspiration may be more effective than stent‐retriever for first‐line reperfusion therapy. Due to the lack of data regarding medium vessel occlusion thrombectomy, we evaluated outcomes according to first‐line technique in a large, multicenter registry.
METHODS
Imaging, procedural, and clinical outcomes of patients with acute proximal medium vessel occlusions (M2, A1, or P1) or distal medium vessel occlusions (M3, A2, P2, or further) treated at 37 sites in 10 countries were analyzed according to first‐line endovascular technique (stent‐retriever versus aspiration). Multivariable logistic regression and propensity‐score matching were used to estimate the odds of the primary outcome, expanded Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction score of 2b–3 (“successful recanalization”), as well as secondary outcomes (first‐pass effect, expanded Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction 2c‐3, intracerebral hemorrhage, and 90‐day modified Rankin scale, 90‐day mortality) between treatment groups.
RESULTS
Of the 440 included patients (44.5% stent‐retriever versus 55.5% aspiration), those treated with stent‐retriever had lower baseline Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Scale scores (median 8 versus 9;
P
<0.01), higher National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale scores (median 13 versus 11;
P
=0.02), and nonsignificantly fewer medium‐distal occlusions (M3, A2, P2, or other: 17.4% versus 23.8%;
P
=0.10). Use of a stent‐retriever was associated with 15% lower odds of successful recanalization (odds ratio [OR], 0.85; [95% CI 0.74–0.98];
P
=0.02), but this was not significant after multivariable adjustment in the total cohort (adjusted OR, 0.88; [95% CI 0.72–1.09];
P
=0.24), or in the propensity‐score matched cohort (n=105 in each group) (adjusted OR, 0.94; [95% CI 0.75–1.18];
P
=0.60). There was no significant association between technique and secondary outcomes in the propensity‐score matched adjusted models.
CONCLUSION
In this large, diverse, multinational medium vessel occlusion cohort, we found no significant difference in imaging or clinical outcomes with aspiration versus stent‐retriever thrombectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal management of patients with isolated posterior cerebral artery occlusion is uncertain. We compared clinical outcomes for endovascular therapy (EVT) versus medical management (MM) in patients with isolated posterior cerebral artery occlusion. METHODS This multinational case-control study conducted at 27 sites in Europe and North America included consecutive patients with isolated posterior cerebral artery occlusion presenting within 24 hours of time last well from January 2015 to August 2022. Patients treated with EVT or MM were compared with multivariable logistic regression and inverse probability of treatment weighting. The coprimary outcomes were the 90-day modified Rankin Scale ordinal shift and ≥2-point decrease in the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale. RESULTS Of 1023 patients, 589 (57.6%) were male with median (interquartile range) age of 74 (64-82) years. The median (interquartile range) National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale was 6 (3-10). The occlusion segments were P1 (41.2%), P2 (49.2%), and P3 (7.1%). Overall, intravenous thrombolysis was administered in 43% and EVT in 37%. There was no difference between the EVT and MM groups in the 90-day modified Rankin Scale shift (aOR, 1.13 [95% CI, 0.85-1.50]; P=0.41). There were higher odds of a decrease in the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale by ≥2 points with EVT (aOR, 1.84 [95% CI, 1.35-2.52]; P=0.0001). Compared with MM, EVT was associated with a higher likelihood of excellent outcome (aOR, 1.50 [95% CI, 1.07-2.09]; P=0.018), complete vision recovery, and similar rates of functional independence (modified Rankin Scale score, 0-2), despite a higher rate of SICH and mortality (symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage, 6.2% versus 1.7%; P=0.0001; mortality, 10.1% versus 5.0%; P=0.002). CONCLUSIONS In patients with isolated posterior cerebral artery occlusion, EVT was associated with similar odds of disability by ordinal modified Rankin Scale, higher odds of early National Institutes of Health stroke scale improvement, and complete vision recovery compared with MM. There was a higher likelihood of excellent outcome in the EVT group despite a higher rate of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and mortality. Continued enrollment into ongoing distal vessel occlusion randomized trials is warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Groundbreaking study results since 2014 have dramatically changed the therapeutic options in acute therapy for severe ischemic stroke caused by large vessel occlusion (LVO). The scientifically proven advances in stroke imaging and thrombectomy techniques have allowed to offer the optimal version or combination of best medical and interventional therapy to the selected patient, yielding favorable or even excellent clinical outcomes within time windows unheard of before. The provision of the best possible individual therapy has become a guideline-based gold standard, but remains a great challenge. With geographic, regional, cultural, economic and resource differences worldwide, optimal local solutions have to be strived for. AIM This standard operation procedure (SOP) is aimed to give a suggestion of how to give patients access to and apply modern recanalizing therapy for acute ischemic stroke caused by LVO. METHOD The SOP was developed based on current guidelines, the evidence from the most recent trials and the experience of authors who have been involved in the above-named development at different levels. RESULTS This SOP is meant to be a comprehensive, yet not too detailed template to allow for freedom in local adaption. It comprises all relevant stages in providing care to the patient with severe ischemic stroke such as suspicion and alarm, prehospital acute measures, recognition and grading, transport, emergency room workup, selective cerebral imaging, differential treatment by recanalizing therapies (intravenous thrombolysis, endovascular stroke treatmet, or combined), complications, stroke unit and neurocritical care. CONCLUSIONS The challenge of giving patients access to and applying recanalizing therapies in severe ischemic stroke may be facilitated by a systematic, SOP-based approach adapted to local settings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Radiological neuro-interventions, especially endovascular stroke treatment (EST), are increasing in case numbers worldwide with increasing occupational radiation exposure. Aim of this study was to define the radiation exposure of neurointerventionalists (NI) during EST and to compare the accumulated dose reaching the left arm with the left temple. METHODS This is a prospective observational study in a tertiary stroke center conducted between 11/2021 and 07/2022. Radiation exposure was measured using real time dosimetry with dosimeters being carried by the NI during EST simultaneously at the left temple and left arm. The effective dose [µSV] per dose area product (DAP) and potential influencing factors were compared in univariate analysis between the two dosimeter positions. RESULTS In total, 82 ESTs were analyzed with a median DAP of 6179 µGy*m2 (IQR 3271 µGy*m2-11720 µGy*m2). The accumulated dose at the left arm and left temple correlated with the DAP and fluoroscopy time of the EST (DAP and arm: p = 0.01, DAP and temple: p = 0.006). The radiation exposure (RE) showed a wide range and did not differ between the two dosimeter positions (median, IQR arm 7 µSV, IQR 3.1-16.9 µSV, min. 0.3 µSV max. 64.5 µSV) vs. head 7 µSv, IQR 3.2-17.4 µSV, min. 0.38 µSV, max. 48.6 µSV, p = 0.94). Occupational RE depends on the number of thrombectomy attempts, but not the target vessel occlusion location or the NI's body height. CONCLUSION Neurointerventionalists experience a generally low but very variable radiation exposure during EST, which depends on the intervention's fluoroscopy time and dose area product as well as thrombectomy attempts but does not differ between left temple and left arm.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Flow diverters with antithrombotic coatings are increasingly used to improve the safety of flow diverter treatments of intracranial aneurysms. This study aimed to investigate the safety and short-term efficacy of the new FRED X flow diverter. MATERIALS AND METHODS Medical charts and procedural and imaging data of a consecutive series of patients with intracranial aneurysms who were treated with the FRED X at 9 international neurovascular centers were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS One hundred sixty-one patients (77.6% women; mean age, 55 years) with 184 aneurysms (11.2% acutely ruptured) were included in this study. Most aneurysms were located in the anterior circulation (77.0%), most frequently at the ICA (72.7%). The FRED X was successfully implanted in all procedures. Additional coiling was performed in 29.8%. In-stent balloon angioplasty was necessary in 2.5%. The rate of major adverse events was 3.1%. Thrombotic events occurred in 7 patients (4.3%) with 4 intra- and 4 postprocedural in-stent thromboses, respectively (1 patient had both peri- and postprocedural thrombosis). Of these thrombotic events, only 2 (1.2%) led to major adverse events (ischemic strokes). Postinterventional neurologic morbidity and mortality were observed in 1.9% and 1.2%, respectively. The rate of complete aneurysm occlusion after a mean follow-up of 7.0 months was 66.0%. CONCLUSIONS The new FRED X is a safe and feasible device for aneurysm treatment. In this retrospective multicenter study, the rate of thrombotic complications was low, and the short-term occlusion rates are satisfactory.

Abstract
PurposeThis study aimed at comparing clinical outcome, recanalization success and time metrics in the “drip and ship” (DS) vs. “drive the doctor” (DD) concept in a comparable setting.MethodsThis is a retrospective analysis of thrombectomy registries of a comprehensive stroke center (CSC) and a thrombectomy-capable stroke center (TSC). Patients, who were transferred from the TSC to the CSC, were classified as DS. Patients treated at the TSC by an interventionalist transferred from the CSC were classified as DD. Good outcome was defined as mRS 0–2 or equivalent to premorbid mRS at discharge. Recanalization (TICI 2b-3 or equivalent) and time metrics were compared in both groups.ResultsIn total, 295 patients were included, of which 116 (39.3%) were treated in the DS concept and 179 (60.7%) in the DD concept. Good clinical outcome was similarly achieved in DS and DD (DS 25.0% vs. DD 31.3%, P = 0.293). mRS on discharge (DS median 4, DD median 4, P = 0.686), NIHSS improvement (DS median 4, DD median 5, P = 0.582) and NIHSS on discharge (DS median 9, DD median 7, P = 0.231) were similar in both groups. Successful reperfusion was achieved similarly in DS (75.9%) and DD as well (81.0%, P = 0.375). Time from onset to reperfusion (median DS 379 vs. DD 286 min, P = 0.076) and time from initial imaging to reperfusion were longer in DS compared to DD (median DS 246 vs. DD 162 min, P < 0.001).ConclusionThe DD concept is time saving while achieving similar clinical outcome and recanalization results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The pressure cooker technique (PCT) was developed to enable safer and more extensive embolization of hypervascular lesions by simultaneously minimizing backflow of liquid embolic materials and thus reduce the risk of non-target embolization of adjacent healthy vessels. We report our experience in applying the PCT to cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) and dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) and additionally suggest our technical adjustments. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed all patients suffering from AVMs or DAVFs that were treated with the PCT between 2018 and 2020 in two university hospitals. The endpoints of the study were clinical safety and the technical efficacy. The endpoints of the study were clinical safety and the technical efficacy. Clinical safety was the absence of death, major or minor symptomatic stroke, TIA and procedure-related intracranial bleeding (SAH) in the peri-procedural period until dismission. Good clinical outcome was defined as no deterioration of the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score (comparing the pre- and post-procedural mRS evaluated by a trained neurologist at admission and dismission). The technical efficacy was considered as the complete embolization occlusion of the target vessels of the lesion documented on the final control angiogram. Long-term follow-up evaluation was not intended for this study as it was not available for all patients. RESULTS Fifteen consecutive patients (6 women; mean age 55 y; range 20-82 y) with seven AVMs and eight DAVFs met the inclusion criteria. The primary clinical safety end point was obtained in all cases as no intraprocedural complications were encountered. All patients had a good clinical outcome with no difference between the pre- and post-mRS scores. The primary efficacy end point was reached in all cases. CONCLUSION The PCT is a safe and effective technique in the treatment of cerebral AVMs and DAVFs. Adding an easy and fast step to the procedure, namely the injection of contrast media to test the complete obstruction by the plug, the risk of reflux seems to additionally be reduced.

Abstract
PURPOSE Unfavorable vascular anatomy can impede thrombectomy in patients with acute ischemic stroke. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of aortic arch types, aortic arch branching patterns and supra-aortic arterial tortuosity in stroke patients with large vessel occlusion. METHODS Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) images of all stroke patients in an institutional thrombectomy registry were retrospectively reviewed. Aortic arch types and branching patterns of all patients were determined. In patients with anterior circulation stroke, the prevalence of tortuosity (elongation, kinking or coiling) of the supra-aortic arteries of the affected side was additionally assessed. RESULTS A total of 1705 aortic arches were evaluated. Frequency of aortic arch types I, II and III were 777 (45.6%), 585 (34.3%) and 340 (19.9%), respectively. In 1232 cases (72.3%), there was a normal branching pattern of the aortic arch. The brachiocephalic trunk and the left common carotid artery had a common origin in 258 cases (15.1%). In 209 cases (12.3%), the left common carotid artery arose from the brachiocephalic trunk. Of 1598 analyzed brachiocephalic trunks and/or common carotid arteries, 844 (52.8%) had no vessel tortuosity, 592 (37.0%) had elongation, 155 (9.7%) had kinking, and 7 (0.4%) had coiling. Of 1311 analyzed internal carotid arteries, 471 (35.9%) had no vessel tortuosity, 589 (44.9%) had elongation, 150 (11.4%) had kinking, and 101 (7.7%) had coiling. CONCLUSION With 20%, type III aortic arches are found in a relevant proportion of stroke patients eligible for mechanical thrombectomy. Nearly half of the stroke patients present with supra-aortic arterial tortuosity, mostly arterial elongation.

Abstract
Background Little is known about the implications for revascularization success of target vessel occlusions (TVOs) with persisting antegrade perfusion before initiation of endovascular stroke treatment (EST) (modified treatment in cerebral ischemia (mTICI 1)) compared to a complete occlusion (mTICI 0). Here, we compared these two states of TVO. Methods Retrospective, single-center analysis of patients treated for M1-segment middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion with EST from January 2015 until May 2020 in a tertiary stroke center. Primary study endpoint was successful recanalization (mTICI 2c-3) after one thrombectomy attempt. Secondary endpoints were clinical outcome (modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 90 days after stroke onset), complication rate, and rate of underlying atherosclerotic disease. The two study groups were compared in univariate analysis including patient characteristics and procedural details. Results In this study, 422/581 patients (72.6%) presented with complete M1-occlusion compared to 159/581 (27.4%) with incomplete M1-occlusion. Neither did the recanalization success rate differ between the study groups nor the rate of complications (mTICI 0: 2.4%, mTICI 1: 0.6%, p = 0.304) or underlying atherosclerotic disease. Patients with incomplete initial occlusion showed a lower mRS at discharge (median interquartile range (IQR) mTICI 0: 4 (3–5) vs. mTICI 1: 3 (2–6), p = 0.014), but a comparable mRS 90 days after stroke onset (mTICI 0: 3 (2–6) vs. mTICI 1: 4 (2–6), p = 0.479). Conclusion Complete M1-occlusions (mTICI 0) and incomplete occlusions (mTICI 1) show the same recanalization success, comparable complication rate, and clinical outcome as well as the same rate of underlying atherosclerotic disease. Thus, incomplete M1-occlusions do not allow for an individualized interventional approach.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Current guidelines do not address recommendations for mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in the extended time window (>6 hours after time last seen well [TLSW]) for large vessel occlusion (LVO) patients with preexisting modified Rankin Scale (mRS) > 1. In this study, we evaluated the outcomes of MT vs medical management in patients with prestroke disability presenting in the 6- to 24-hour time window with acute LVO. METHODS We analyzed a multinational cohort (61 sites, 6 countries from 2014 to 2020) of patients with prestroke (or baseline) mRS 2 to 4 and anterior circulation LVO treated 6-24 hours from TLSW. Patients treated in the extended time window with MT vs medical management were compared using multivariable logistic regression and inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW). The primary outcome was the return of Rankin (ROR, return to prestroke mRS by 90 days). RESULTS Of 554 included patients (448 who underwent MT), the median age was 82 years (interquartile range [IQR] 72-87) and the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) was 18 (IQR 13-22). In both MV logistic regression and IPTW analysis, MT was associated with higher odds of ROR (adjusted OR [aOR] 3.96, 95% CI 1.78-8.79 and OR 3.10, 95% CI 1.20-7.98, respectively). Among other factors, premorbid mRS 4 was associated with higher odds of ROR (aOR, 3.68, 95% CI 1.97-6.87), while increasing NIHSS (aOR 0.90, 95% CI 0.86-0.94) and decreasing Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Scale score (aOR per point 0.86, 95% CI 0.75-0.99) were associated with lower odds of ROR. Age, intravenous thrombolysis, and occlusion location were not associated with ROR. DISCUSSION In patients with preexisting disability presenting in the 6- to 24-hour time window, MT is associated with a higher probability of returning to baseline function compared with medical management. CLASSIFICATION OF EVIDENCE This investigation's results provide Class III evidence that in patients with preexisting disability presenting 6-24 hours from the TLSW and acute anterior LVO stroke, there may be a benefit of MT over medical management in returning to baseline function.

Abstract
PURPOSE The treatment of vasospasms during endovascular stroke treatment (EST) with intra-arterial nimodipine (NM) is routinely performed. However, the efficacy of resolving iatrogenic vasospasms during the angiographic intervention and the infarct development in follow-up imaging after EST has not been studied yet. METHODS Retrospective single-center analysis of patients receiving EST for anterior circulation vessel occlusion between 01/2015 and 12/2021. The primary endpoint was ASPECTS in follow-up imaging. Secondary endpoints were the clinical outcome (combined endpoint NIHSS 24 h after EST and difference between modified Rankin Scale (mRS) before stroke and at discharge (delta mRS)) and intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) in follow-up imaging. Patients with vasospasms receiving NM (NM+) or not (NM-) were compared in univariate analysis. RESULTS Vasospasms occurred in 79/1283 patients (6.2%), who consecutively received intra-arterial NM during EST. The targeted vasospasm angiographically resolved in 84% (66/79) under NM therapy. ASPECTS was lower in follow-up imaging after vasospasms and NM-treatment (NM - 7 (6-9), NM + 6 (4.5-8), p = 0.013) and the clinical outcome was worse (NIHSS 24 h after EST was higher in patients treated with NM (median, IQR; NM+: 14, 5-21 vs. NM-: 9, 3-18; p = 0.004), delta-mRS was higher in the NM + group (median, IQR; NM+: 3, 1-4 vs. NM-: 2, 1-2; p = 0.011)). Any ICH (NM+: 27/79, 34.2% vs. NM-: 356/1204, 29.6%; p = 0.386) and symptomatic ICH (NM+: 2/79, 2.5% vs. NM-: 21/1204, 1.7%; p = 0.609) was equally distributed between groups. CONCLUSION Intra-arterial nimodipine during EST resolves iatrogenic vasospasms efficiently during EST without increasing intracranial hemorrhage rates. However, patients with vasospasms and NM treatment show higher infarct growth resulting in lower ASPECTS in follow-up imaging.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Flow diversion is an innovative and increasingly used technique for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. New flow diverters (FDs) are being introduced to improve the safety and efficacy of this treatment. The aim of this study was to assess the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of the new Pipeline Vantage (PV) FD. METHODS Patients with intracranial aneurysms treated with the PV at 10 international neurovascular centers were retrospectively analyzed. Patient and aneurysm characteristics, procedural parameters, complications, and the grade of occlusion were assessed. RESULTS 60 patients with 70 aneurysms (5.0% with acute hemorrhage, 90.0% located in the anterior circulation) were included. 82 PVs were implanted in 61 treatment sessions. The PV could be successfully implanted in all treatments. Additional coiling was performed in 18.6%, and in-stent balloon angioplasty (to enhance the vessel wall apposition) in 24.6%. Periprocedural technical complications occurred in 24.6% of the treatments, were predominantly FD deployment problems, and were all asymptomatic. The overall symptomatic complication rate was 8.2% and the neurological symptomatic complication rate was 3.3%. Only one symptomatic complication was device-related (perforator artery infarctions leading to stroke). After a mean follow-up of 7.1 months, the rate of complete aneurysm occlusion was 77.9%. One patient (1.7%) died due to aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage which occurred before treatment, unrelated to the procedure. CONCLUSIONS The new PV FD is safe and feasible for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. The short-term occlusion rates are promising but need further assessment in prospective long-term follow-up studies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Photon-counting detector computed tomography (PCD-CT) is a promising new technique for CT imaging. The aim of the present study was the in vitro comparison of coil-related artifacts in PCD-CT and conventional energy-integrating detector CT (EID-CT) using a comparable standard brain imaging protocol before and after metal artifact reduction (MAR). METHODS A nidus-shaped rubber latex, resembling an aneurysm of the cerebral arteries, was filled with neurovascular platinum coils and inserted into a brain imaging phantom. Image acquisition and reconstruction were repeatedly performed for PCD-CT and EID-CT (n = 10, respectively) using a standard brain imaging protocol. Moreover, linear interpolation MAR was performed for PCD-CT and EID-CT images. The degree of artifacts was analyzed quantitatively (standard deviation in a donut-shaped region of interest) and qualitatively (5-point scale analysis). RESULTS Quantitative and qualitative analysis demonstrated a lower degree of metal artifacts in the EID-CT images compared to the total-energy PCD-CT images (e.g., 82.99 ± 7.89 Hounsfield units (HU) versus 90.35 ± 6.28 HU; p < 0.001) with no qualitative difference between the high-energy bin PCD-CT images and the EID-CT images (4.18 ± 0.37 and 3.70 ± 0.64; p = 0.575). After MAR, artifacts were more profoundly reduced in the PCD-CT images compared to the EID-CT images in both analyses (e.g., 2.35 ± 0.43 and 3.18 ± 0.34; p < 0.001). CONCLUSION PCD-CT in combination with MAR have the potential to provide an improved option for reduction of coil-related artifacts in cerebral imaging in this in vitro study. KEY POINTS • Photon-counting detector CT produces more artifacts compared to energy-integrating detector CT without metal artifact reduction in cerebral in vitro imaging after neurovascular coil-embolization. • Spectral information of PCD-CT provides the potential for new post-processing techniques, since the coil-related artifacts were lower in PCD-CT images compared to EID-CT images after linear interpolation metal artifact reduction in this in vitro study.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Endovascular stroke treatment (EST) is commonly performed for acute basilar artery occlusion (BAO). We aimed to identify the role of the exact location of BAO in patients receiving EST regarding the stroke etiology, recanalization success and prediction of favorable clinical outcome.
Methods
Retrospective analysis of 191 consecutive patients treated for BAO with EST from 01/2013 until 06/2021 in a tertiary stroke center. Groups were defined according to exact location of BAO in I: proximal third, II: middle third, III: distal third and IV: tip of the basilar artery. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed for BAO location comparing stroke etiology, recanalization result and favorable clinical outcome according to mRS 0–3 90 days after stroke onset.
Results
Occlusion sides types I–IV were evenly distributed (37, 36, 60 and 58 patients). Types I and II were more often associated with large artery atherosclerosis (50 vs. 10 patients, p < 0.001). Distal/tip occlusion (types III/IV) occurred mostly in cardiac embolism or embolic stroke of unknown source (89 vs. 12 in types I/II, p < 0.001). Occlusion site correlated with the underlying stroke etiology (AUC [Area under the curve] 0.89, p < 0.0001, OR [odds ratio] for embolism in type IV: 245). Recanalization rates were higher in patients with distal occlusions (type III/IV OR 3.76, CI [95% confidence interval] 1.51–9.53, p = 0.0076). The BAO site is not predicting favorable clinical outcome.
Conclusion
The exact basilar artery occlusion site in patients eligible for endovascular stroke treatment reflects the stroke etiology and is associated with differing recanalization success but does not predict favorable clinical outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Endovascular embolization using liquid embolic agents is a safe and effective treatment option for AVMs and fistulas. Because reliable visibility of these liquid embolic agents is essential for intraprocedural visual control to prevent complications, novel angiographic systems are equipped with material-specific roadmap modes. The aim of this study was the systematic in vitro comparison of conventional and material-specific roadmap modes regarding the visibility of the most used liquid embolic agents. MATERIALS AND METHODS A recently introduced in vitro model, resembling cerebral vessels, was embolized with Onyx 18, Squid 18, PHIL 25%, and n-BCA mixed with iodized oil (n = 4 for each liquid embolic agent), as well as with contrast medium and saline, both serving as a reference. Imaging was performed in conventional and material-specific roadmap modes. The visibility of the liquid embolic agents in both modes was compared quantitatively and qualitatively. RESULTS Significant differences between conventional and material-specific roadmap modes regarding the visibility of the liquid embolic agents were observed for all study groups. All liquid embolic agents were better visible in the material-specific roadmap modes compared with the conventional mode in qualitative and quantitative analyses (eg, Onyx in conventional-versus-material-specific modes along the 1.0-mm sector: mean contrast-to-noise ratio, 5.69 [SD, 0.85] versus 47.18 [SD, 5.72]; P < .001, respectively). CONCLUSIONS In this in vitro study, we demonstrated a better visibility of all investigated liquid embolic agents by using material-specific roadmap modes compared with the conventional roadmap technique. Especially in complex anatomic situations, these novel roadmap modes could improve the visual control and thus the safety and efficacy of embolization procedures in clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Flow diversion has gradually become a standard treatment for intracranial aneurysms of the anterior circulation. Recently, the off-label use of the flow diverters to treat posterior circulation aneurysms has also increased despite initial concerns of rupture and the suboptimal results. This study aimed to explore the change in complication rates and treatment outcomes across time for posterior circulation aneurysms treated using flow diversion and to further evaluate the mechanisms and variables that could potentially explain the change and outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective review using a standardized data set at multiple international academic institutions was performed to identify patients with ruptured and unruptured posterior circulation aneurysms treated with flow diversion during a decade spanning January 2011 to January 2020. This period was then categorized into 4 intervals. RESULTS A total of 378 procedures were performed during the study period. Across time, there was an increasing tendency to treat more vertebral artery and fewer large vertebrobasilar aneurysms (P = .05). Moreover, interventionalists have been increasingly using fewer overlapping flow diverters per aneurysm (P = .07). There was a trend toward a decrease in the rate of thromboembolic complications from 15.8% in 2011-13 to 8.9% in 2018-19 (P = .34). CONCLUSIONS This multicenter experience revealed a trend toward treating fewer basilar aneurysms, smaller aneurysms, and increased usage of a single flow diverter, leading to a decrease in the rate of thromboembolic and hemorrhagic complications.

Abstract
PURPOSE Acute intraprocedural thrombosis (AIT) is a severe complication of flow diverter stent (FDS) implantation for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. Even though device-related thromboembolic complications are well known, there are no acknowledged risk factors nor defined surveillance protocols for their early detection. This study aimed to demonstrate that an angiographic active surveillance is effective to detect and treat AIT. Furthermore, we investigated risk factors for the occurrence of AIT. METHODS A prospective institutional protocol consisting of a defined observation period of 30 min following FDS deployment was established to detect AIT. Overall incidence, as well as the efficacy and safety of AIT treatment were assessed. Moreover, radiological and clinical outcomes of patients with AIT were analyzed. The influence of various patient- and procedure-related factors on the occurrence of AIT was investigated using multivariable forward logistic regression. RESULTS During active surveillance twelve cases of AIT were observed among a total of 161 procedures (incidence: 7.5%). The median time of first observation was 15.5 min (IQR 9.5) after FDS implantation. The early recognition of AIT ensured a prompt treatment with intravenous application of a glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor, which led to complete thrombus resolution in all cases without hemorrhagic complications. Patients with pre-existing arterial hypertension and side branches originating from the aneurysmal sac had a higher risk of AIT (respectively OR, 9.844; OR, 3.553). There were two cases of re-thrombosis in the short-term postoperative period, of whom one died. The remaining patients with AIT had a good clinical outcome. CONCLUSION Active surveillance for 30 min after FDS implantation is an effective strategy for early detection and ensuing treatment of AIT and can thus prevent secondary sequalae. Hypertension and side branches originating from the aneurysmal sac may increase the risk of AIT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The CLinical Assessment of WEB device in Ruptured aneurYSms (CLARYS) study has shown that the endovascular treatment of ruptured bifurcation aneurysms with the Woven EndoBridge (WEB) is safe and effective and provides protection against rebleeding at 1 month and 1 year. The 12-month angiographic follow-up is an important endpoint of the study. METHODS The CLARYS study is a prospective multicenter study conducted in 13 European centers. The study enrolled 60 patients with 60 ruptured aneurysms of the anterior and posterior circulation. The study was conducted with an independent assessment of safety outcomes and imaging. RESULTS Sixty patients with 60 ruptured bifurcation aneurysms to be treated with the WEB were included. Fifty-three aneurysms (88.3%) had a broad base with a dome to neck ratio <2 (mean 1.6). Of these, 46 patients were evaluated by an independent core laboratory with follow-up imaging performed at 12 months or before eventual retreatment. At 1 year, 19/46 aneurysms (41.3%) were completely occluded (Raymond-Roy grade I), 21/46 (45.7%) had a residual neck and 6/46 (13.0%) had residual aneurysm filling. Adequate occlusion was reported in 40/46 (87%) aneurysms. Six patients underwent target aneurysm retreatment. CONCLUSIONS The CLARYS study has previously shown that the use of the WEB in the endovascular treatment of ruptured bifurcation aneurysms provides effective protection against rebleeding with a good safety profile. The angiographic occlusion rates at 1 year reported here are comparable to those already seen in previous multicenter studies which primarily included unruptured aneurysms.
