Correction osteotomy using conventional techniques may lead to under and over correction. The advantage of using patient specific templates for osteotomy is to predetermine the exact direction and degree of deformity before surgery and to estimate postoperative limb alignment which must mimic the physiologic loading to secure favorable clinical outcome.

Introduction&Hypothesis: The aim of the present study was to investigate whether administration of edaravone, a free radical scavenger, before or during t-PA administration can increase the rate of early recanalization and improve the clinical outcome in stroke patients with major arterial occlusion. Methods: YAMATO study is an investigator initiated, multicenter (17 hospitals in Japan), prospective, randomized, open labeled study. Acute stroke patients with horizontal (M1) or vertical (M2) portion of the middle cerebral artery occlusion within 4.5 h of onset were studied. The subjects were randomly allocated to the early edaravone (early-E) group (intravenous edaravone [30 mg] was started before or during t-PA administration) and the late edaravone (late-E) group (edaravone was started after t-PA administration). Primary outcome, defined as any early recanalization 1h after t-PA therapy. Secondary outcomes included the rate of the significant recanalization, defined as ≥50% of the territory of the occluded artery on magnetic resonance angiography, or the thrombolysis in cerebral infarction score ≥2b on digital subtraction angiography as well as the incidence of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH), and the favorable clinical outcome (modified Rankin scale [mRS] of 0-2) at 3 months after onset. Results: One-hundred and sixty-six patients (96 men; median age [interquartile range], 78 [69-85] years) were randomized 1:1 to either the early-E group or the late-E group. Twenty-three (13.9%) had proximal M1 occlusion; 60 (36.1%), distal M1 occlusion; 83 (50%), M2 occlusion. Early recanalization was similarly observed in the early-E group and in the late-E group (53.1% vs. 53.0%, P=1.000). The rate of significant recanalization was also similar between the 2 groups (27.2% vs. 33.7%, p=0.399). sICH was occurred in 4 (4.8%) patients in the early-E group and in 2 (2.4%) in the late-E group (p=0.682). Among the 144 patients who were pre-morbid mRS of 0-2 and eligible for 3 months assessment, favorable outcome was seen in 53.9% in the early-E group and 57.4% in the late-E group (p=0.738) Conclusions: The timing of the edaravone infusion should not affect the rate of early recanalization, sICH, or favorable outcome after t-PA therapy.

AbstractSuccessful revascularization is one of the main predictors of a favorable clinical outcome after mechanical thrombectomy. However, even if mechanical thrombectomy is successful, some patients have a poor clinical outcome. This study aimed to investigate the clinical, imaging, and procedural factors that are predictive of poor clinical outcomes despite successful revascularization after mechanical thrombectomy in patients with acute anterior circulation stroke. The authors evaluated 69 consecutive patients (mean age, 74.6 years, 29 women) who presented with acute ischemic stroke due to internal cerebral artery or middle cerebral artery occlusions and who were successfully treated with mechanical thrombectomy between July 2014 and November 2016. A good outcome was defined as a modified Rankin Scale score of 0 to 2 at 3 months after treatment. The associations between the clinical, imaging, and procedural factors and poor outcome were evaluated using logistic regression analyses. Using multivariate analyses, the authors found that the preoperative National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score (odds ratio [OR], 1.152; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.004–1.325; p = 0.028), the diffusion-weighted imaging Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score (DWI-ASPECTS) (OR, 0.604; 95% CI, 0.412–0.882; p = 0.003), and a Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (TICI) 2b classification (OR, 4.521; 95% CI, 1.140–17.885; p = 0.026) were independent predictors of poor outcome. Complete revascularization to reduce the infarct volume should be performed, especially in patients with a high DWI-ASPECTS, to increase the likelihood of a good outcome.

Background: Prompt revascularization is the main goal of acute ischemic stroke treatment. We examined which revascularization scale - reperfusion (modified Treatment in Cerebral Infarctions, mTICI) or recanalization (Arterial Occlusive Lesion, AOL) - better predicted the clinical outcome in ischemic stroke participants treated with endovascular therapy (EVT). Additionally, we determined the optimal thresholds for the predictive accuracy of each scale. Methods: We included participants from the Interventional Management of Stroke (IMS) III trial with complete occlusion in the internal carotid artery terminus or proximal middle cerebral artery (M1 or M2) who completed EVT within 7 h of symptom onset. The abilities of the AOL and mTICI scales to predict a favorable outcome (defined as a modified Rankin Scale score of 0-2 at 3 months) were compared by receiver operating characteristic analyses. The maximal sensitivity and specificity for each revascularization scale were established. Results: Among 240 participants who met the study inclusion criteria, 79 (33%) achieved a favorable outcome. Higher scores of mTICI and AOL increased the likelihood of a favorable outcome (2.7% with mTICI 0 vs. 83.3% with mTICI 3, and 3.0% with AOL 0 vs. 43% with AOL 3). The accuracy of mTICI reperfusion and AOL recanalization for a favorable outcome prediction was similar, with optimal thresholds of mTICI 2b/3 and AOL 3, respectively. Conclusion: Reperfusion (mTICI) and recanalization (AOL) predicted a favorable clinical outcome with comparable accuracy in ischemic stroke participants treated with EVT. Optimal revascularization goals to maximize clinical outcome (modified Rankin Scale score of 0-2) consisted of complete recanalization (AOL 3) and reperfusion of at least 50% of the arterial tree of the symptomatic artery (mTICI 2b/3) in the IMS III trial setting.
