CSF-Venous Fistulas: a practical guide for interventionalists

Episode 108

Tuesday, October 6, 2026 • Duration 37:12

Diagnosing and managing cerebrospinal fluid-venous fistulas (CSFs) requires navigating complex venous anatomy and nuanced imaging techniques.

In this episode, JNIS Editor-in-Chief, Dr. Michael Chen, speaks with associate editor Dr. Emanuele Orru (Lahey Hospital and Medical Center, Burlington, Massachusetts, USA) about establishing a systematic, multidisciplinary framework to identify and treat these low-pressure CSF leaks.

Dr. Emanuele Orru is the corresponding author of the paper: Cerebrospinal Fluid–Venous Fistulas: Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, and Management (https://jnis.bmj.com/content/early/2026/07/16/jnis-2026-025062), freely available on the JNIS website.

Combined delivery catheters vs. traditional aspiration in stroke thrombectomy

Episode 105

Friday, July 3, 2026 • Duration 23:00

Optimising mechanical thrombectomy speed and efficiency remains a primary focus in acute ischemic stroke management. In this episode, JNIS Editor, Dr. Michael Chen, talks with Dr. Keiko Fukuda, a neurointerventional fellow at UCLA and practising neurointerventionalist in Monterey, California, and Dr. Victor Szeder, Professor of Radiology, Neurology, and Neurosurgery and Director of the Neurointerventional Fellowship at UCLA.

They talk about their multi-centre paper, "Faster reperfusion with combined delivery catheter systems and aspiration first stroke thrombectomy: a multicenter analysis" (https://jnis.bmj.com/content/early/2026/06/19/jnis-2025-024700). The authors discuss data comparing combined delivery catheter systems against standard aspiration setups, highlighting significantly faster times from groin puncture to clot contact and an impressive 67% first-pass effect. They also share key clinical insights on overcoming severe arterial tortuosity.

Endovascular shunting for normal pressure hydrocephalus: safety trial insights with Professor Adel Malek

Episode 104

Thursday, June 11, 2026 • Duration 25:40

Evaluating the 90-day safety and technical feasibility of a percutaneous transvenous approach represents a critical milestone for routing cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) – the clear liquid that cushions the brain and spine – directly into the venous system.

In this episode, JNIS Editor, Dr. Michael Chen, talks with corresponding author Professor Adel Malek (Tufts Medical Center, Boston) (1) to discuss his high-impact paper, "Safety of endovascular shunting for normal pressure hydrocephalus from a prospective, multicenter, single-arm study”.

They discuss the results of this 66-patient, prospective trial, exploring how the novel eShunt system accesses the cerebellopontine angle cistern to drain CSF and relieve pressure.

Reperfusion grade and outcomes in the ESCAPE-MeVO Trial

Episode 103

Friday, May 1, 2026 • Duration 21:21

Achieving near-complete reperfusion in medium vessel occlusions (MeVO) is linked to smaller final infarct volumes. However, this did not translate into a statistically significant shift in 90-day functional independence.

In this episode, JNIS Editor-in-Chief, Dr. Michael Chen, and Professor Johanna Ospel (1) discuss the post-hoc analysis of the ESCAPE-MeVO trial, titled "Reperfusion grade and clinical outcome following medium vessel occlusion thrombectomy in the Endovascular Treatment to Improve Outcomes for Medium Vessel Occlusion trial".

Reducing opioid use after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: the role of MMA infusion

Episode 102

Tuesday, March 31, 2026 • Duration 22:41

Headache affects up to 90% of patients following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), often requiring high-dose opioids that can complicate neurological monitoring.

In this episode, JNIS Editor-in-Chief, Dr. Michael Chen, is joined by Professor Peter Kan¹ to discuss a prospective pilot study investigating a novel dural therapy: the infusion of lidocaine (with or without dexamethasone) via the middle meningeal artery (MMA) during aneurysm embolisation.

They explore the safety of this targeted approach, its impact on Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain scores, and its potential as an opioid-sparing strategy in the neuro-ICU.

Unseen wounds: the psychological toll of complications

Episode 100

Monday, February 2, 2026 • Duration 19:57

Medical professionals can oftentimes fall under the category of "second victims", as they experience burnout and moral injury from the impacts of their work. Over the course of a neurointerventionalist's medical career, serious complications in procedures are sadly inevitable. These can be difficult to process, and there are not always the systems in place to provide the support needed, either inside or outside of the hospital. A new survey has been carried out to assess the severity and prevalence of negative psychological effects on physicians who have experienced these complications. Dr. Ansaar Rai¹ joins JNIS Editor-in-Chief Dr. Michael Chen to discuss the original research piece, "Unseen wounds: a multinational investigation of neurointerventionalists on the psychological toll of complications".
