BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Patients with stroke unsuitable for IV thrombolysis may be
considered for endovascular revascularization, particularly when baseline imaging suggests …

We report the immediate technical and clinical outcome of a new self-expanding fully
retrievable stent in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. Eleven consecutive patients with …

Background To describe preliminary experiences and the procedural details of retrieval
thrombectomy using a self-expanding and fully retrievable Solitaire stent (ev 3 Inc., CA …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Large IC artery occlusion is often resistant to
recanalization. We present our initial experience with the PS. MATERIALS AND METHODS …

Abstract Background and Purpose: Stent retrievers are currently displacing 'classical'
thrombectomy devices for recanalization in acute ischaemic stroke. The aim of our study was …

Purpose In recent years, mechanical thrombectomy using Solitaire stent retrieval has been
tried for treating acute ischemic stroke with a large artery occlusion. We systematically …

We report the use of a self-expanding stent as a thrombectomy device in 17 patients (mean
age 64.3 years) with major ischemic stroke secondary to large vessel occlusion. The …

Background and Purpose—To describe the safety and effectiveness of a self-expanding and
fully retrievable stent (Solitaire AB; ev3 Inc, Plymouth, MN) in revascularization of patients …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Mechanical thrombectomy by using a single stent retriever
system has demonstrated high efficacy for recanalization of large-artery occlusions in acute …

Methods In acute ischemic stroke, good outcome following successful recanalization is time
dependent. In patients undergoing endovascular therapy at our institution, recanalization …
