Several studies have compared primary EUS-guided biliary drainage to ERCP with insertion of metal stents in unresectable malignant distal biliary obstruction (MDBO) and the results were conflicting. The aim of the current study was to compare the outcomes of the procedures in a large-scale study.

Stroke, Volume 54, Issue Suppl_1, Page A26-A26, February 1, 2023. Introduction:Plavix resistance is an independent risk factor for thromboembolic complications following carotid artery stent (CAS) placements. The VerifyNow P2Y12 assay is the best studied in gauging for Plavix responsiveness. Its performance is affected when hematocrit (HCT) value is

Stroke, Volume 54, Issue Suppl_1, Page AWP142-AWP142, February 1, 2023. Introduction:Although there is emphasis on performing carotid artery stent placement (CAS) within two weeks after index event of transient ischemic attack (TIA) or minor stroke in patients with cervical internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis, the risk and characteristics of recurrent cerebral ischemic events while waiting for CAS are not well defined.Method:We analyzed patients admitted to our institution over a 45-month period with symptomatic cervical ICA stenosis. All patients were initiated on daily aspirin and clopidogrel 75mg on the day of admission. We identified any new cerebral ischemic events that occurred between index event and CAS and categorized them as TIA, and minor or major ischemic strokes. We calculated the risk of new ipsilateral cerebral ischemic events between index ischemic event and CAS.Results:The mean age of 150 patients analyzed was 67 years (range: 46-94 years; 106 were men); and 94 and 56 patients had ≥ 70% and 50-69% stenosis, respectively. The mean and median time intervals between index event and CAS performance were 25 and 6 days, respectively. A total of 6 new cerebral ischemic events (5 TIAs and 1 major stroke) were observed over 3,776 patient days of observation. The risk of new ipsilateral cerebral ischemic events between index ischemic event and CAS performance was 1.6 per 1000 patient days of observation.Conclucion:We identified a low risk of new ipsilateral cerebral ischemic events in patients with ≥ 50% ICA stenosis while waiting for CAS presumably due to early initiation of dual antiplatelets.
