multidisciplinary society representing the leaders in the field of endovascular therapy for …

The utility and necessity of pretreatment with intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) before
mechanical thrombectomy (MT) remains an issue of strong debate. This study aims to …

Objective The substantial clinical improvement in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients
treated with mechanical thrombectomy (MT), combined with the poor response of proximal …

Importance The benefit of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in patients with stroke presenting
with mild deficits (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale [NIHSS] score< 6) owing to …

Background Whether intravenous thrombolysis before mechanical thrombectomy provides
additional benefit for functional outcome in acute ischemic stroke remains uncertain. We …

Background Endovascular treatment (EVT) has greatly improved the prognosis of acute
ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with a proximal intracranial large vessel occlusion (LVO) of …

Background and Purpose—Emergent carotid artery stenting plus mechanical thrombectomy
is an effective treatment for acute ischemic stroke patients with tandem occlusion of the …

Objective To compare outcomes after endovascular therapy (EVT) and IV thrombolysis (IVT)
in patients with stroke with emergent large vessel occlusion (LVO) and mild neurologic …

Background and Purpose: There is interest in what happens over time to the thrombus after
intravenous alteplase. We study the effect of alteplase on thrombus structure and its impact …

Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) has become standard of care for large vessel occlusion
strokes but current guidelines exclude a large proportion of patients from this highly effective …
