Review Meta Analysis
Endovascular Management vs Intravenous Thrombolysis for Acute Stroke Secondary to Carotid Artery Dissection: Local Experience and Systematic Review.
Little is known regarding the endovascular management of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) related to carotid artery dissection (CAD). ⋯ Our study provides evidence that the endovascular management of AIS in the setting of CAD is a feasible, safe, and promising strategy.

Review Case Reports
Surfer's Myelopathy: A Rare Form of Spinal Cord Infarction in Novice Surfers: A Systematic Review.
Surfer's myelopathy is a rare, acute, atraumatic myelopathy that occurs in novice surfers. ⋯ Surfer's myelopathy is a clinical entity associated with complete deficit in >50% of cases. Its prognosis is almost exclusively dictated by severity at presentation/nadir. Thus, publicizing this rare but serious condition (within and outside the medical literature) may be an effective intervention.
