This manuscript provides a comprehensive review of intracranial atherosclerosis (ICAS)‐
related large‐vessel occlusion (ICAS‐LVO) and its mimics, focusing on the challenges in …

Background Intracranial atherosclerosis related large vessel occlusion (ICAS‐LVO) is the
major cause of failed mechanical thrombectomy. ICAS‐LVO causes reocclusion or a fixed …

Background We aimed to determine the current practice patterns among neurointerventional
practitioners frequently involved in treating intracranial atherosclerosis‐related large‐vessel …

Background and Purpose—Endovascular treatment for acute intracranial atherosclerosis–
related large vessel occlusion (ICAS [+]-LVO) is one of the challenging issues in modern …

Background Patients with acute stroke presenting with large vessel occlusion secondary to
intracranial atherosclerosis (ICAS‐LVO) may require rescue therapy (RT) in addition to …

Background Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) failure occurs in≈ 10% to 20% of MTs. Among
the common causes of failed MT is residual underlying intracranial stenosis (ICAS), typically …

Background and Purpose: Intracranial atherosclerosis-related large-vessel occlusion
caused by in situ thrombo-occlusion (ICAS-LVO) has been regarded an important reason for …

Introduction: In patients with intracranial large vessel occlusion (LVO) who undergo
endovascular treatment (EVT), recanalization failure may be related to intracranial …

Endovascular treatment (EVT) has become a standard treatment for acute ischemic stroke
due to large vessel occlusion (LVO) in the anterior circulation. However, whether EVT tools …

Large vessel occlusion stroke due to underlying intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD-
LVO) is prevalent in 10 to 30% of LVOs depending on patient factors such as vascular risk …
