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 …

The last decade's progress in demonstrating the clinical benefit of endovascular
thrombectomy (EVT) in patients with large vessel occlusion stroke has transformed the …

Background and Objectives Declines in stroke admission, IV thrombolysis (IVT), and
mechanical thrombectomy volumes were reported during the first wave of the COVID-19 …

Background Two recent trials demonstrated a benefit for endovascular therapy (EVT) in the
treatment of basilar artery occlusion (BAO). In light of the expected increase in the use of …

Introduction Uncertainty remains on the optimal management of basilar artery occlusion
(BAO). Two large randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in 2019 and 2021 demonstrated …

Intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) is one of the most common causes of acute
ischemic stroke worldwide. Patients with acute large vessel occlusion due to underlying …

Background Intracranial rescue stenting (RS) might be an option for acute ischemic stroke
after the failure of mechanical thrombectomy (MT). However, the findings were not consistent …

Background Unsuccessful recanalisation or reocclusion after thrombectomy is associated
with poor outcomes in patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO) acute ischaemic stroke …

In this review article, we aim to provide a summary of the discoveries and developments that
were instrumental in the evolution of the Neurointerventional field. We begin with …

Backgrounds Recent trials have shown improved outcomes after mechanical thrombectomy
(MT) for vertebrobasilar occlusion (VBO) stroke. However, there is a paucity of data …
