Objective: Transradial approach (TRA) is increasingly used as a viable alternative to the traditional transfemoral approach (TFA) in neuroendovascular therapy (NET) owing to its potential anatomical benefits and lower puncture-site complication rates. However, the real-world challenges of implementing TRA-NET have not been thoroughly studied, particularly those related to guide catheter (GC) placement. In this study, we aimed to explore the feasibility and challenges of TRA-NET, with a specific focus on GC placement.Methods: This retrospective observational study included patients who underwent NET at our institution between December 2019 and May 2022. Procedural success was defined as the successful placement of a GC in the target vessel. Cases in which a Simmons-shaped GC was used or the approach was changed to TFA were classified as difficult. Safety was assessed based on the rate of severe puncture-site complications requiring either blood transfusion or surgical intervention.Results: Among the 310 patients who underwent NET during the study period, 222 (71.6%) with a median age of 74 years were selected for TRA-NET. The target vessel was in the left anterior circulation (LtAC) in 101 (45.5%) patients, and 8-F GCs were the most frequently used (40.1%). TRA-NET achieved a 95.0% success rate, with a switch to TFA required in 5.0% of the cases. Procedural challenges occurred in 42 (18.9%) patients, primarily in those with LtAC lesions. Specifically, a type III aortic arch (p <0.0001) and age ≥80 years (p = 0.01) were significantly associated with procedural difficulties. Radial artery evaluation was confirmed in 66 cases (29.7%), revealing one instance (1.5%) of radial artery occlusion. No severe puncture-site complications were observed.Conclusion: TRA-NET may provide substantial therapeutic benefits without significant limitations in device use. However, it may be challenging, particularly in older patients and those with a type III aortic arch with LtAC lesions. Consequently, careful selection of the approach route is imperative.

Objective: We report a case of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) via the distal transradial approach (dTRA) and technical tips.Case Presentation: An 89-year-old woman was transferred to our hospital due to back pain after a fall and sudden-onset left hemiparesis. We performed MT because three-dimensional computed tomography angiography (3D-CTA) revealed right middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion. The access route was Type 3 aortic arch. The abdominal aorta and common iliac artery were tortuous and partially dissected, and she had a lumbar vertebra fracture. We selected dTRA in consideration of safety, ease of access, and less postoperative postural restriction. The first pass resulted in complete recanalization using an aspiration catheter and stent retriever. Her symptoms rapidly improved and she was discharged with a modified Rankin Scale score of 1.Conclusion: dTRA in MT may be a treatment option.

A large abdominal mass was found in a dog. Histopathologically, the surface of the mass was covered with compressed adrenal gland tissue. The neoplastic cells showed typical features of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST), including Antoni type A and type B pattern, and nuclear palisading. Immunohistochemically, these cells were positive for S100 protein, nerve growth factor receptor, nestin and claudin-1. The dog was euthanized because of the developing multiple metastatic lesions. The metastatic cells showed quite similar histopathological and immunohistochemical features as those in the original tumor. Although MPNST can develop at many body sites, this is the first report of MPNST originating from the adrenal gland in a dog.

Two cats with abdominal effusion and anorexia were diagnosed as feline infectious peritonitis (FIP). We tried to evaluate the effect of thromboxane (Tx) synthetase inhibitor, ozagrel hydrochloride, on the progression of symptoms and clinicopathologic data characteristic to FIP. After administration of Tx synthetase inhibitor, improvement of appetite and activity, decreases of peritoneal effusion, reduction of leukocyte number to normal level, and improvement of hyper γ-globulinemia were found in 2 cats with FIP. These findings suggest that the vasculitis in FIP can be successfully treated with Tx synthetase inhibitor which inhibits platelet aggregation.
