  The authors used CTA to assess arterial stenosis and occlusion in an ischemic stroke population arriving at a tertiary stroke center within 24 hours of symptom onset to obtain a comprehensive picture of occlusive disease pattern. Extra- and intracranial pathology, defined as stenosis of ≥50% and occlusions, were registered and classified into 21 prespecified segments. In the 50,807 arterial segments available for revision, 1851 (3.6%) abnormal segments were in the ischemic (symptomatic) territory and another 408 (0.8%) were outside it (asymptomatic). In the 1211 patients with ischemic stroke imaged within 6 hours of symptom onset, 40.7% had symptomatic large, proximal occlusions. They conclude that CTA in patients with acute ischemic stroke shows large individual variations of occlusion sites and degrees. Approximately half of patients have no visible occlusive disease, and 40% imaged within 6 hours show large, proximal segment occlusions amenable to endovascular therapy.

  Hindbrain Herniation in Chiari II Malformation on Fetal and Postnatal MRI

  American Journal of Neuroradiology May 2017, 38 (5) 1031-1036; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3174/ajnr.A5116
  
  The authors examined the neuroimaging findings with a focus on hindbrain herniation and ventricular size in fetuses with open spinal dysraphism and compared them with postnatal imaging features in groups undergoing prenatal-versus-postnatal repair. Thirty-two of 102 (31.3%) fetuses underwent in utero repair of open spinal dysraphism; 68.6% (70/102) underwent postnatal repair. Of those who underwent prenatal repair 81.3% (26/32) had resolved cerebellar ectopia postnatally. Of those who had severe cerebellar ectopia (grade 3) that underwent postnatal repair, 65.5% (36/55) remained grade 3, while 34.5% (19/55) improved to grade 2. They conclude that most fetuses who undergo in utero repair have resolved cerebellar ectopia postnatally.

  Clinical and Imaging Characteristics of Diffuse Intracranial Dolichoectasia

  American Journal of Neuroradiology May 2017, 38 (5) 915-922; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3174/ajnr.A5102
  
  The authors retrospectively reviewed a consecutive series of patients with diffuse intracranial dolichoectasia and compared demographics, vascular risk factors, additional aneurysm prevalence, and clinical outcomes with a group of patients with vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia. Twenty-five patients had diffuse intracranial dolichoectasia, and 139 had vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia. Patients with diffuse intracranial dolichoectasia were older than those with vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia and had a higher prevalence of abdominal aortic aneurysms, other visceral aneurysms, and smoking history. Patients with diffuse intracranial dolichoectasia were more likely to have aneurysm growth. They conclude that the natural history of patients with diffuse intracranial dolichoectasia is significantly worse than that in those with isolated vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia.
