BACKGROUND: Endovascular treatment (EVT) of tandem lesion (TL) in the anterior circulation acute ischemic stroke (IS) usually requires periprocedural antithrombotic treatment and early initiation of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after carotid stenting. However, it may contribute to an occurrence of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (SICH) in some cases. We investigated factors influencing the SICH occurrence and assessed the possible predictors of SICH after EVT. METHODS: IS patients with TL in the anterior circulation treated with EVT were enrolled in the multicenter retrospective ASCENT study. A good three-month clinical outcome was scored as 0-2 points in modified Rankin Scale (mRS) and recanalization using the TICI scale. SICH was assessed using the SITS-MOST criteria. Logistic regression analysis was used for the assessment of possible predictors of SICH with adjustment for potential confounders. RESULTS: In total, 300 (68.7 % males, mean age 67.3 ± 10.2 years) patients with median of admission NIHSS 17 were analyzed. Recanalization (TICI 2b-3) was achieved in 290 (96.7 %) patients and 176 (58.7 %) had mRS 0-2. SICH occurred in 25 (8.3 %) patients. Patients with SICH did not differ from those without SICH in the rate of periprocedural antithrombotic treatment (64 vs. 57.5 %, p = 0.526) and in the rate of DAPT started within the first 12 h after EVT (20 vs. 42.2 %, p = 0.087). After adjustment, admission NIHSS and admission glycemia were found as the only predictors of SICH after EVT. CONCLUSION: Admission NIHSS and glycemia were found as the only predictors of SICH after EVT for TL. No associations between periprocedural antithrombotic treatment, early start of DAPT after EVT and SICH occurrence were found.

PURPOSE: Endovascular treatment (EVT) of tandem lesion (TL) in anterior circulation (AC) acute ischemic stroke (AIS) represents still a clinical challenge. We aimed to evaluate selected factors related to EVT and assess other possible predictors of good clinical outcome besides the generally known ones. METHODS: AIS patients with TL in AC treated with EVT were enrolled in the multicenter retrospective ASCENT study. A good three-month clinical outcome was scored as 0-2 points in modified Rankin Scale (mRS) and achieved recanalization using the TICI scale. Symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (SICH) was assessed using the SITS-MOST criteria. Logistic regression analysis was used for the assessment of possible predictors of mRS 0-2 with adjustment for potential confounders. RESULTS: In total, 300 (68.7% males, mean age 67.3 ± 10.2 years) patients with median of admission NIHSS 17 were analyzed. Recanalization (TICI 2b-3) was achieved in 290 (96.7%) patients and 176 (58.7%) had mRS 0-2. Besides the age, admission NIHSS and SICH, admission glycemia (p = 0.005, OR: 0.884) the stent patency within the first 30 days after EVT (p = 0.0003, OR: 0.219), dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) started within 12 h after EVT (p < 0.0001, OR: 5.006) and statin therapy started within 24 h after stenting (p < 0.0001, OR: 5.558) were found as other predictors. CONCLUSION: Admission glycemia, start of DAPT within 12 h and statin therapy within 24 h after EVT, and stent patency within the first 30 days after EVT were found as other predictors of good three-month clinical outcome in AIS patients treated with EVT for TL.

Gastrointestinálne stromálne tumory sú najčastejšími mezenchymálnymi nádormi tráviaceho traktu. Sú definované ako nádory mezenchýmového pôvodu, ktoré vykazujú mutáciu génu receptora tyrozínkinázy c-kit alebo rastového doštičkového faktora alfa (PDGFRA). Najčastejším príznakom býva krvácanie z GIT-u rôzneho rozsahu od okultného až po masívne, prejavujúce sa hematemézou alebo melénou. Ich liečba je primárne chirurgická. V kazuistike prezentujeme prípad 35-ročného muža prijatého na chirurgiu pre melénu, bez objasnenia zdroja krvácania. Pre rozvoj hemoragického šoku bola indikovaná urgentná laparotómia. Vzhľadom na nejasnú etiológiu krvácania (na základe chirurgickej resekcie a histopatológie suponovaná cievna malformácia) boli doplnené vyšetrenia vrátane enteroskopie s odhalením GIST s následnou chirurgickou resekciou. V článku podávame prehľad uvedenej problematiky v literatúre.
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors are the most common mesenchymal tumors of the digestive tract. They are defined as tumors of mesenchymal origin, showing a mutation of gene receptor of tyrosine kinase c-kit or of a platelet derivated growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFRA). The most common symptom is gastrointestinal bleeding, of varying extent, from the occult to the massive, manifested by hematemesis or melena. Their treatment is primarily surgical. We present a case of 35-year-old man, who was admitted to surgical department for melena, without clarifying the source of bleeding. Because of development of hemarrhagic shock urgent laparotomy was indicated. In view of the unknown etiology of bleeding (we supposed vascular malformation considering the surgical resection and histopatology), examinations, including enteroscopy, were supplemented, with the finding of GIST with consecutive surgical resection. In article we reported an overview in literature.
