Abstract:
PURPOSE:Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) vascular hyperintensity (FVH) extent or FVH-DWI mismatch as a primary influencing factor of clinical outcome in acute ischemic stroke is controversial. This study elucidated the regional pathophysiology and tissue fate in four types of cortical territories classified by the initial FVH and DWI findings in patients with acute proximal middle cerebral artery (M1) occlusion successfully recanalized using mechanical thrombectomy. METHODS:We retrospectively evaluated 35 patients successfully recanalized within 24 h of acute M1 occlusion onset between 2016 and 2019. Each Alberta stroke program early CT score area of M1-M6 were categorized as group A (DWI-, FVH-), B (DWI-, FVH+), C (DWI+, FVH+), or D (DWI+, FVH-). Territorial collateral status was graded on a 4-point scale by initial angiogram. Follow-up head computed tomography (CT) findings on days 2-9 were assessed for the territorial outcome. RESULTS:Overall, 210 cortical territories were identified; of these, 88 (41.9 %) were categorized into group A; 72 (34.3 %), group B; 37 (17.6 %), group C; and 13 (6.2 %), group D. The rate of territories with good collaterals (grade 2 or 3) significantly decreased in the order of groups as 78.3 %, 62.7 %, 27.6 %, and 0%, respectively (Ptrend <.001). Conversely, the rate of territories with any hypo- or hyper-density on follow-up CT significantly increased in the order of groups as 13.4 %, 23.1 %, 88.5 %, and 85.7 %, respectively (Ptrend <.001). CONCLUSION:Categorization of cortical areas based on the FVH and DWI findings can stratify territorial collateral status and tissue fate.
