Large vessel occlusion (LVO) is the obstruction of large, proximal cerebral arteries and accounts for 24–46% of acute ischaemic stroke (AIS), when including both A2 and P2 segments of the anterior and posterior cerebral arteries (1).
Background: Occlusions of the M2 segment of the middle cerebral artery may cause significant clinical effects, especially when occurring in the dominant cerebral hemisphere, yet endovascular treatment of these lesions remains controversial.
Residual neurological effects of a stroke or cerebrovascular accident (CVA) should be documented using CPT category I69 codes indicating sequelae of cerebrovascular disease. Codes I60-67 specify hemiplegia, hemiparesis, and monoplegia and identify whether the dominant or nondominant side is affected.

PTFE Grafts PFTE, also known as Teflon, is a synthetic material, readily available. It has been shown that PTFE grafts are easy to implant, cannulate with ease and carry a relatively low rate of infection. PTFE grafts can typically be used for dialysis within 2-3 weeks.

Tichelbacker and colleagues (2016) stated that percutaneous mitral valve repair using MitraClip (MC) is a well-established method for a subset of patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) and high-risk for surgical intervention. Amplatzer Cardiac Plug occludes LAA and allows the discontinuation of OAC and prevention of thromboembolic stroke. Due to the need for femoral and trans-septal access in both procedures, a single approach could lead to minor risk of further complications and shorter cumulative intervention time. These researchers systematically analyzed 4 patients who underwent a combined procedure with MC and ACP in their heart-center. All procedures were performed under fluoroscopic as well as echocardiographic guidance, and follow-up controls in a mid-term period were carried out. In all patients (2 males/females; aged 73 to 88years), MC (1 to 2 Clips) and ACP (size 18 to 28 mm) were successfully implanted in 1 procedure (mean total time of 114 ± 17 mins). At least moderate MR was achieved and 2 patients had no complications and therefore were discharged early. In a 3rd patient, a dislocation of ACP occurred 2 hours after the implantation. The oldest patient developed a respiratory insufficiency due to cardiac decompensation and further complications. The authors concluded that a combination of MC and ACP in a single procedure was feasible in this first case series of patients without a significant extension of procedure time. However, they stated that it might be important to select patients carefully. The location of optimal trans-septal puncture may be challenging in regard to ACP placement, even in experienced hands and subsequent complications can occur. These preliminary findings need to be validated by well-designed studies.#N#Francisco and colleagues (2017) evaluated the feasibility of a combined approach with MitraClip implantation and LAAO in a single procedure. These investigators reported the first case series regarding this issue, and discussed the specific advantages, pitfalls and technical aspects of combining these 2 procedures. A total of 5 patients underwent LAAO with the Watchman device followed by MitraClip implantation in the same procedure. All patients experienced significant reduction in mitral valve regurgitation of at least 2 grades, optimal occluder position, no associated complications and significant clinical improvement assessed by NYHA functional class (reduction of at least 1 functional class, with 4 patients in class I at 1-month follow-up). The authors concluded that in selected patients rejected for surgical mitral valve repair, with AF and increased risk of bleeding and embolic events, a combined approach with MitraClip implantation and LAAO in a single procedure is feasible, safe and effective. This was a small study (n = 5) with short-term follow-up (1 month); its findings need to be validated by well-designed studies.
On March 13, 2015, Boston Scientific Corporation received FDA’s approval for the Watchman Left Atrial Appendage Closure device, which offers a new stroke risk reduction option for high-risk patients with non-valvular AF (NVAF) who are seeking an alternative to long-term warfarin therapy (Boston Scientific, 2015). The Watchman device will be made available to U.S. centers involved in the clinical studies and additional, specialized centers as physicians are trained on the implant procedure.
However, post-operative complications are relatively common in patients undergoing LAAC; the complications, including residual flow, increase in the risk of bleeding, or other AEs, are unknown in patients receiving 1-stop therapy. In a systematic review, these investigators examined the AEs of CA and LAAC hybrid therapy in patients with NVAF. They carried out a computer-based literature search to identify publications listed in the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane library databases. Studies were included if patients received CA and LAAC hybrid therapy and reported AEs. A total of 13 studies involving 952 patients were eligible based on the inclusion criteria. In the peri-procedural period, the pooled incidence of peri-cardial effusion was 3.15 %. The rates of bleeding events and residual flow were 5.02 & and 9.11 %, respectively. During follow-up, the rates of all-cause mortality, embolism events, bleeding events, AF recurrence, and residual flow were 2.15 %, 5.24 %, 6.95 %, 32.89 %, and 15.35 %, respectively. The maximum occurrence probability of residual flow events was 21.87 %. Bleeding events were more common in patients with a higher procedural residual flow event rate (p = 0.03). A higher AF recurrence rate indicated higher rates of embolism events (p = 0.04) and residual flow (p = 0.03) during follow-up. The authors concluded that bleeding events were more common in patients with a higher procedural residual flow event rate. However, combined CA and LAAC therapy was reasonably safe and effective in patients with NVAF. Moreover, these researchers stated that further comparative studies are needed in the future.
. [i]n very select cases, this combination seems to be a valuable and practical approach [for] patients with a significant risk of thromboembolic events (CHA2DS2 -VASc score of >2) undergoing an ablation procedure to treat symptomatic AF, who, in addition, have a strict or relative contraindication to (N)OACs . ..
