Pioneering the intrasaccular revolution
Intracranial aneurysms remain a life-threatening condition, often lurking silently until they rupture, leading to devastating consequences for patients. For decades, the standard of care has been dominated by endovascular techniques such as coiling and stenting, procedures that have undoubtedly saved countless lives. However, as our understanding of complex aneurysms grows, particularly those located at arterial bifurcations and with wide necks, so does the demand for more advanced and adaptable tools. [...]
Embark on a time-travel journey through the future of flow diversion
Twenty years ago, the groundbreaking concept of utilizing flow-diversion to treat intracranial aneurysms emerged. Initially limited to addressing large and proximal lesions, this innovative approach has traversed a remarkable path. Some physicians now report its efficacy in managing complex distal and bifurcation aneurysms. Over these transformative two decades, flow diverter stents have undergone significant enhancements. [...]
Radial access: a neurointerventional breakthrough?
The hashtag #radialforneuro is a social media trend promoting the use of transradial access for neurointerventions. This hashtag emerged in 2019 and has quickly gained popularity. However, it remains unclear whether #radialforneuro is merely a means of self-promotion for physicians on social media or a long-term change benefiting our patients.
Mastering MEVOs: insights and techniques to improve treatment
Following the revolutionary impact of thrombectomy in 2015, could MeVo be the new LVO? Unveil the answer in this exclusive special report, where expert analysis, literature data, and key insights come together to answer this burning question for the future of neurointervention!
Let's make the voice of women heard!
On International Women's Day 2023, we'd like to take a moment to appreciate the situation of women in the field of interventional neuroradiology, both on the practitioner and patient sides. Over the years, the position of women has progressed, but there is still room for improvement. Four experts share their insights and perspectives in this special report. Join them now!
“Tough clots" special feature (3/3): uncovering clinical evidence
In this third and final newsletter, we delve into the critical need for evidence-based clinical management of tough clots, emphasizing the importance of refining treatment strategies and comparing techniques to optimize patient outcomes.
“Tough clots" special feature (2/3): preclinical research, replication & best treatment strategies!
In this second edition of our Special "Tough Clot" feature, you have the opportunity to meet the individuals doing the preclinical research, discovering their approaches and concerns as they broaden our understanding of clots and how to effectively treat them.
“Tough clots" special feature (1/3): how to deal with challenging situations and MT failures?
The recent advent of mechanical thrombectomy is somehow very similar to the revolution ushered in by antibiotics in the 1950’s. Most bacterial diseases are now curable, and stroke would soon become like this. However, clinical studies still report a 10-20% MT failure rate, and the early days of MT are now almost ten years behind us. In this first special feature of a series of three, we reflect on problematic occlusions and how we can anticipate such situations.
On the occasion of World Stroke Day 2022, LINNC online offers you a special feature dedicated to stroke including new interviews and highlights to make a world tour of current stroke situation and explore the remaining challenges for our scientific community!
