Emboli are the Major Cause Emboli are the Major Cause of Ischemic Stroke of Ischemic Stroke PFO and unknown 21% non embolic 40% Aortic Arch Atheroma 14% RHD, AF Aneurysm 15% 10% Stroke 1988;19:547 Data from NINCDS Stroke Data Bank Stroke 1999: 30:2513 Minnesota population based study NEJM 2000;342:1743 Framingham Study CardioVascular Center Frankfurt, Sankt Katharinen CardioVascular Center Frankfurt, Sankt Katharinen

Anticoagulation Anticoagulation • Difficult to manage in clinical practice Difficult to manage in clinical practice • Risk of side effects Risk of side effects • Contraindicated in many patients Contraindicated in many patients • Probably not effective in aortic arch Probably not effective in aortic arch atheroma atheroma CardioVascular Center Frankfurt, Sankt Katharinen CardioVascular Center Frankfurt, Sankt Katharinen

Take Home Messages Take Home Messages • The Diverter concept has been safe and The Diverter concept has been safe and effective in animal experiments effective in animal experiments • We can do this in humans We can do this in humans but but • Excessive intima proliferation may occur Excessive intima proliferation may occur • This was independed from flow and from This was independed from flow and from pore size of the Diverter pore size of the Diverter • Occlusion of the diverter can be treated by Occlusion of the diverter can be treated by catheter techniques catheter techniques • We need to learn more We need to learn more CardioVascular Center Frankfurt, Sankt Katharinen CardioVascular Center Frankfurt, Sankt Katharinen
