CAA-TFNEs are associated with ⬆️ risk of future ICH, due to high burden of cSS - a marker of advanced hemorrhagic CAA. This has important clinical implications, particularly in evaluating the risk vs benefit of antithrombotic agents when TIA is a differential Andreas Charidimou MD, PhD
When should you be thinking about CAA-related TFNEs?

🧐We are always aware of #mimics , but sometimes we can miss a stroke or TIA if we don't consider chameleons
Can you share another one?
