  • Laurent Pierot (Reims, France) discusses what the future landscape of endovascular aneurysm care may look like, speculating on the evolving roles for coiling, flow diversion and intrasaccular devices
  • Among a plethora of late-breaking presentations from the 2023 European Stroke Organisation Conference (ESOC; 24–26 May, Munich, Germany) are fresh evidence favouring thrombectomy in large-core stroke patients, “fantastic news” relating to intravenous tenecteplase, and positive results from the INTERACT3 and ENRICH trials assessing intracranial haemorrhage (ICH) treatments
  • PROFILE: Ameer Hassan (Harlingen, USA) outlines how an early-career switch from plastic surgery to vascular neurology has ultimately seen him ascend to president of the Society of Vascular and Interventional Neurology (SVIN)
