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 ...

Mechanical Thrombectomy of M2-Occlusion

Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases, 2015
There is growing evidence for the efficacy of mechanical thrombectomy in acute stroke patients with large-vessel occlusions in the anterior circulation. Although distal occlusions of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) can cause severe clinical symptoms, endovascular therapy is not considered here as the first choice. The aim of our study was to prove the
