Event Description
|
A journal article was submitted for review titled "thirty-day outcomes of resolute onyx stent for symptomatic intracranial stenosis: a multicenter propensity score¿matched comparison with stenting versus aggressive medical management for preventing recurrent stroke in intracranial stenosis trial".In this study, data from 8 high-volume neuro endovascular centers was combined in order to compare the 30-day stroke and/or death rate associated with intracranial stent placement for symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic disease (sicad) using the resolute onyx zotarolimus-eluting stent, and provide a comparison with the results of stenting versus aggressive medical management for preventing recurrent stroke in intracranial stenosis (sammpris) trial.A total of 132 patients were included in the study.Only patients who presented with either recurrent stroke or transient ischemic attack (tia), intracranial stenosis 70% to 99% and with at least one event on best medical management were included.The symptomatic arteries included the basilar artery (n=8), the intracranial carotid (n=42), the middle cerebral artery stem (mca) (m1) (n=38) and the vertebral (n=44).The primary end point was a composite of 30-day stroke, intracerebral hemorrhage (ich), and/or death.Secondary end points included long-term outcomes and in stent restenosis (isr) rates.Recurrent transient ischemic attack (tia), stroke, and/or death beyond 30 days were employed as a long term outcome.A total of 4 stroke and/or deaths were reported within 30 days in patients treated the resolute onyx stent.Two deaths were related to ipsilateral ich (one because of intraoperative rupture of unappreciated aneurysm), and 2 ipsilateral ischemic strokes were observed.No access site complications were reported.The mean residual stenosis was 6.5%.Ninety-seven patients had clinical follow-up beyond 30 days.Mean follow-up was 7.4 months.Only 28 patients had angiographic follow-up at 7.5 months.Fifty patients had radiographic evaluation performed by either computed tomography or magnetic resonance angiography in the follow-up period.Two patients had recurrent stroke and four patients had tias during the follow-up period.The recurrent strokes were either in the treated territory (n=1) or ipsilateral (n=1) and occurred within 6 months.Four out of those had isr on follow up angiogram, and all 4 patients were retreated with angioplasty.There were 4 deaths in the follow-up period, all believed to be unrelated to stenting procedure.One patient died after a cardiac arrest event, 1 patient died from metastatic cancer, 1 patient died from complications of pre-existing end stage renal disease, and another patient died of unknown etiology.
