Mechanical thrombectomy: Review
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.

Preclinical modeling of mechanical thrombectomy
Journal of Biomechanics, 2022 Mechanical thrombectomy to treat large vessel occlusions (LVO) causing a stroke is one of the most effective treatments in medicine, with a number needed to treat to improve clinical outcomes as low as 2.6. As the name implies, it is a mechanical solution to a blocked artery and modeling these mechanics preclinically for device design, regulatory ...

Fate of the Penumbra after Mechanical Thrombectomy [PDF]
American Journal of Neuroradiology, 2013 In acute stroke, CTP is often used to visualize the endangered brain areas, including the ischemic core and the penumbra. Our goal was to assess the evolution of the infarct after mechanical thrombectomy and to analyze the interventional factors determining the fate of the penumbra.All patients receiving mechanical thrombectomy in the anterior ...

Radiation outcome in mechanical thrombectomy of acute ischemic stroke
Translational Neuroscience, 2019 Mechanical thrombectomy is recommended for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) with large artery occlusion. Radiation during the endovascular procedure would increase the risk of skin diseases.

[Mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke].
RoFo : Fortschritte auf dem Gebiete der Rontgenstrahlen und der Nuklearmedizin, 2012 The therapy of acute ischemic stroke aims at fast recanalization of the occluded brain vessel. In contrast to intravenous thrombolysis (IVT), endovascular approaches yield higher recanalization rates especially in large vessel occlusions. Mechanical thrombectomy with the Merci Retriever received FDA approval in 2004 as an adjunct to IVT or in the case ...

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

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 ...

Mechanical thrombectomy: Answering unanswered
Annals of Indian Academy of Neurology, 2020 The stroke physician community witnessed a major "breakthrough" in acute stroke therapeutics when the results of the first of the many positive trials, "MR CLEAN," were published showing a significant absolute benefit in favor of mechanical thrombectomy in patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO). Thereafter, the investigators of ESCAPE, SWIFT PRIME,

Overview of Mechanical Thrombectomy Techniques [PDF]
Neurosurgery, 2019 Abstract The recently reported superiority of mechanical thrombectomy to intravenous thrombolytics has jettisoned endovascular intervention into the forefront of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) management. These successes have allowed a chance for recanalization for patients not meeting the strict eligibility criteria for intravenous ...
