Mechanical Thrombectomy

Annals of Indian Academy of Neurology, 2022
Large vessel occlusion stroke contributes to disability and mortality out of proportion to its incidence. Over time it was noted that intravenous thrombolysis alone was not sufficient for this stroke type. Slowly, endovascular approach and mechanical clot retrieval have come out to be the biggest advances in the field of ...

Cardiac Events After Mechanical Thrombectomy in Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Nation-Wide Cohort Study. [PDF]

Eur J Neurol
ABSTRACT Introduction Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) markedly improves the outcome in patients with large vessel occlusion stroke. Given the cardiovascular risk profile of these patients, we wanted to investigate their post‐MT risk of cardiac events compared to other patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS).

Percutaneous large-bore mechanical thrombectomy for macroscopic fat pulmonary embolism: a case report. [PDF]

CVIR Endovasc
Background Macroscopic fat pulmonary embolism is extremely uncommon. Most cases occur in the context of fat grafting or long bone fractures. Macroscopic fat pulmonary embolism may be associated with cardiopulmonary compromise and is associated with high ...

Mechanical thrombectomy in patients with stroke due to large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation and low baseline NIHSS score [PDF]

Journal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2021
We sought to verify the benefit of mechanical thrombectomy in patients with acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation and low National Institute of Health stroke scale score at presentation.

Obesity and Mechanical Thrombectomy [PDF]

Cureus, 2021
Background Obesity has been shown to have a positive mortality benefit in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention, dialysis, those with rheumatoid arthritis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and various wasting diseases. Studies for this mortality benefit in ischemic stroke patients are conflicting, and it has not been well studied

Updates in mechanical thrombectomy

Exploration of Neuroscience, 2022
Stroke is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. The advent of mechanical thrombectomy has largely improved patient outcomes. This article reviews the features and outcomes associated with aspiration, stent retrievers, and combination catheters used in current practice.

Blood pressure behavior during mechanical thrombectomy and drugs used for conscious sedation or general anesthesia

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2021
Background: The optimal blood pressure (BP) during mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke is currently unclear. Objective: To investigate BP behavior during mechanical thrombectomy in patients with acute ischemic stroke and its relationship ...

Mechanical thrombectomy in intermediate- and high-risk acute pulmonary embolism: hemodynamic outcomes at three months

Respiratory Research, 2023
Background Mechanical thrombectomy has been shown to reduce thrombus burden and pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) and to improve right ventricular (RV) function in patients with high-risk or intermediate-high-risk pulmonary embolism (PE).

Mechanical Thrombectomy in Stroke [PDF]

Deutsches Ärzteblatt international, 2015
The introduction of neurological stroke units and of thrombolysis with the intravenous (IV) administration of recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA) have markedly improved the treatment of stroke. Five randomized trials of catheter-based interventional treatment of stroke with special stents were published in 2015.Recently published ...
