Background The effectiveness of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion is time-dependent. While only stroke centers with endovascular capabilities perform ...

Background and purpose The significance of early venous filling on digital subtraction angiography (DSA) after mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is unclear. This study introduces the Venous Return Index ...

Background Five randomized controlled trials recently appeared in the literature demonstrating that early mechanical thrombectomy in patients with acute ischemic stroke is significantly related to an ...

Background We sought to determine the rate of early neurologic decline (END) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) with large vessel occlusion (LVO) who presented with mild deficits and ...

Background Conventionally, ‘successful’ endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) had been defined as achieving revascularization of thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (TICI)−2B or greater, rather than as ...

Background Intracranial in-stent hyperplasia is a stroke-associated complication that requires routine surveillance. Objective To compare the results of in vivo experiments to determine the accuracy ...

Background Endovascular technological advances have revolutionized the field of neurovascular surgery and have become the mainstay of treatment for many cerebrovascular pathologies. Digital ...

Background Minimally invasive evacuation may help ameliorate outcomes after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). However, hospital length of stay (LOS) post-evacuation is often long and costly. Objective ...

Predicting treatment effect is a popular topic among recent Journal of Neurointerventional Surgery stroke thrombectomy publications.1–3 The primary outcome measure is often functional independence, ...

Aims Endovascular therapy (EVT) for distal medium vessel occlusions (DMVOs) is a potential frontier of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) treatment, but its efficacy against best medical therapy (BMT) ...

Introduction The natural history of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) due to basilar artery occlusion (BAO) is poor. Endovascular reperfusion therapy (EVT) improves recanalization rates in patients with ...

The pediatric population spans a diverse age group,1 from neonates and infants to adult-sized teenagers, each with unique physiological characteristics that must be considered when performing ...
