Endovascular thrombectomy 2020: open issues [PDF]
Abstract Mechanical thrombectomy is now well - established first - line treatment for selected patients with large artery occlusions of the anterior circulation. However, number of technical and procedural issues remains open to assure optimal outcomes in majority of patients including those suffering from posterior circulation perfusion

Endovascular Thrombectomy in Acute Ischemic Stroke [PDF]
Despite several effective strategies of stroke prevention, the stroke epidemic still constitutes the leading cause of permanent disability. The recent series of well-designed, convincingly-positive randomized controlled trials of endovascular thrombectomy in stroke patients with large vessel occlusion launched a paradigm shift and a new era in acute ...

A single institutional experience with suction thrombectomy in acute mesenteric ischemia
Acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is typically treated by open surgery or hybrid techniques. Catheter-based aspiration thrombectomy represents another minimally invasive alternative with a potential additional safety benefit of minimizing the bleeding risk

Vascular tortuosity in endovascular mechanical thrombectomy
Endovascular mechanical thrombectomy effectively removes occlusive thrombi from the arterial lumen; however, there is little literature supporting the relevance of vascular geometry on surgical outcomes. Critical vessel characteristics including the degree of angulation and tortuosity influence the ability to advance stent ...

Endovascular thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke [PDF]
Five recent well-designed randomized controlled trials showed improved outcomes with combined endovascular thrombectomy and intravenous thrombolysis compared with thrombolysis alone.[1][1] Recent guidelines[2][2],[3][3] recommend endovascular thrombectomy for patients with large-vessel ...

Association between time to reperfusion and outcome is primarily driven by the time from imaging to reperfusion [PDF]
Background and Purpose A progressive decline in the odds of favorable outcome as time to reperfusion increases is well known. However, the impact of specific workflow intervals is not clear.; Methods We studied the mechanical thrombectomy group (n=103 ...
