This study aimed to investigate which modality of renal replacement therapy is currently selected in practice. Methods We conducted a mail-based survey in 317 dialysis facilities that were certified by three academic societies that focus on dialysis, neurology, and neurosurgery in Japan. Results We received responses from 103 facilities (32.5%). In cases of cerebral infarction (CI) and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), more than 80% of the facilities selected only intermittent RRT, and 22.3% (CI)/8.7% (ICH) of the facilities selected intermittent HD which is the same setting in normal conditions. Although continuous hemodiafiltration and peritoneal dialysis are recommended in the Japanese guidelines, these were selected in only a few facilities 16.5% and 0% in CI, 16.5% and 1% in ICH, respectively. RRT on the day of onset tended to be avoided, irrespective of the duration following the last HD session. Furthermore, physicians preferred to modify anticoagulants and reduce dialysis performance in the acute phase. Conclusion This questionnaire survey uncovered a gap between guidelines and actual practice, even in hospitals accredited as educational facility, which is a novel and important finding. Further studies with larger sample sizes are needed to determine the optimal modality of RRT for the acute phase of cerebrovascular disease.Purpose of review To summarize epidemiology, pathophysiology, prognostic relevance, and treatment options of coronary artery disease (CAD) when coupled with severe aortic stenosis (SAS). In regard to treatment options, we focused on the most recently adopted therapeutic approaches and on the future perspectives in light of the latest percutaneous and surgical technical improvements in the field of both CAD and SAS man
