Introduction Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) secondary to the occlusion of a large intracranial
vessel (LVO) is a recognized public health problem. Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) has …

Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) has been validated in several randomized controlled
trials in recent years for its efficacy in the treatment of acute ischemic strokes (AIS) and is …

Acute cerebral artery occlusion is associated with very poor outcomes. 1) Early
recanalization of occluded arteries, however, may improve the outcome, and recanalization …

Background: Although tortuosity of the internal carotid artery (ICA) can pose a significant
challenge when performing mechanical thrombectomy, few studies have examined the …

BACKGROUND: The increased risk of intracranial hemorrhage with multiple passes in
endovascular therapy (EVT) for large vessel occlusion with a large ischemic core is a …

Background Direct thromboaspiration has been reported as an effective mechanical
treatment for acute ischemic stroke. We aimed to determine whether the angle of interaction …

Background and Objective: The first pass effect (FPE; achieving complete recanalization
with a single thrombectomy device pass) has been shown to be associated with higher rates …

Background The efficacy of combined stent retriever (SR) and aspiration catheter (AC;
combined technique: CBT) use for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is unclear. We investigated …

The increasing use of mechanical thrombectomy in stroke management has opened the
window to local intraarterial brain delivery of therapeutic agents. In this context, the use of …

Establishing the underlying biomechanics of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and its treatment is
fundamental to developing more effective clinical treatments for one of society's most …
