Objective: We report a case of huge scrotal hematoma during emergency mechanical thrombectomy.Case Presentation: An 85-year-old man presented with sudden aphasia and right-sided hemiplegia. He was diagnosed with cerebral infarction due to left M1 occlusion and underwent an emergency mechanical thrombectomy. The treatment was completed with full recanalization, but when replacing the long sheath in the right femoral artery with a short sheath, the patient flexed his leg. The sheath could not be replaced, resulting in a massive scrotal hematoma. Shortly after, the patient went into cardiopulmonary arrest but recovered spontaneous circulation after cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The puncture site was treated hemostatically with manual compression, and the scrotal hematoma was not enlarged. He was transferred to another hospital with a modified Rankin Scale score of 5.Conclusion: Scrotal hematoma is a rare but potentially fatal puncture site complication that should be considered during neuro-endovascular treatment.

Background:We determined the 2-year long-term risk-benefit profile in patients with stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) receiving warfarin or direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) for nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) using a prospective, multicenter, observational registry in Japan.Methods and Results:NVAF patients within 7 days after onset of ischemic stroke/TIA were enrolled in 18 stroke centers. Outcome measures included ischemic and bleeding events and death in the 2-year follow-up period. We enrolled 1,116 patients taking either warfarin (650 patients) or DOACs (466 patients) at acute hospital discharge. DOAC users were younger and had lower National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale, CHADS2and discharge modified Rankin Scale scores than warfarin users (P<0.0001 each). Incidences of stroke/systemic embolism (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.07; 95% CI, 0.66–1.72), all ischemic events (1.13; 0.72–1.75), and ischemic stroke/TIA (1.58; 0.95–2.62) were similar between groups. Risks of intracranial hemorrhage (0.32; 0.09–0.97) and death (0.41; 0.26–0.63) were significantly lower for DOAC users. Infection was the leading cause of death, accounting for 40% of deaths among warfarin users.Conclusions:Stroke/TIA patients receiving DOACs for secondary prevention were younger and had lower stroke severity and risk indices than those receiving warfarin. Estimated cumulative incidences of stroke and systemic embolism within 2 years were similar between warfarin and DOACs users, but those of death and intracranial hemorrhage were significantly lower among DOAC users.
