Impact of Asymptomatic Intracranial Hemorrhage on Outcome After Endovascular Stroke Treatment
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Endovascular treatment (EVT) achieves high rates of recanalization in acute large‐vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke, but functional recovery remains heterogeneous. While symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) has been well studied, the prognostic impact of asymptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (aICH) after EVT is less certain ...
