The “GP” Mechanical Thrombectomy Device
Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases, 2009We present data concerning the extraction of clots using the newly invented "GP" mechanical thrombectomy device (MTD). Artificial and porcine clots of various lengths were used in plastic tube models of an artery. We investigate the pressures and times taken for clot extraction together with the volumes of fluid extracted.

Mechanical thrombectomy for DVT
Techniques in Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 2004Deep venous thrombosis is a common source of morbidity and mortality in the United States. Complications include pulmonary embolism and chronic post-thrombotic syndrome. Chronic post-thrombotic syndrome is characterized by extremity pain, edema, venous claudication, skin changes, and skin ulceration.

Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome after mechanical thrombectomy
Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery, 2021A male patient in his late 50s who had untreated atrial fibrillation received mechanical thrombectomy for right middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCA), with complete recanalization. After initial neurological improvement, he developed headache and altered vigilance 2 days post-thrombectomy.

[Mechanical thrombectomy - technique].
Der Radiologe, 2016Mechanical thrombectomy with stent retrievers in acute stroke has emerged as the technique with the highest recanalization rate of therapeutic procedures available so far. Recently it was demonstrated that compared to intravenous rTPA alone, mechanical thrombectomy improves outcomes of patients with acute occlusions of intracranial arteries of the ...

Thrombolysis, Mechanical Thrombectomy and Percutaneous Aspiration Thrombectomy
2012Over the past 25 years there have been many developments in the percutaneous minimally invasive dissolution and removal of thrombus from the vasculature. Available methods include lysis by drugs, which enhance the body’s native thrombolytic system, and those which involve physical maceration and/or removal of clot. This chapter will focus in particular

Supplementing mechanical thrombectomy with neuroprotection
Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery, 2016The success of the 2015 stroke trials changed the indications for mechanical thrombectomy and the landscape of acute stroke care.1–5 A treatment we have always believed to be beneficial was shown, without doubt, to be effective. Systems of care have been designed around IA therapy for acute stroke. Procedural volumes have increased dramatically.

Mechanical Thrombectomy for Acute Ischemic Stroke
Continuum, 2023Endovascular stroke therapy has greatly improved the ability to treat the deadliest and most disabling form of acute ischemic stroke. This article summarizes some of the recent innovations in this field and discusses likely future developments.At present, there is robust activity to improve all facets of care for patients with large vessel occlusion ...

Mean platelet volume and mechanical thrombectomy
Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases, 2020Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) is a marker of platelet activity and it is an independent predictor for long-term outcome in stroke patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between baseline MPV value and clinical outcome at 90-days in anterior circulation stroke and large vessel occlusion (LVO) patients submitted to mechanical ...

Right atrial thrombi: Percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy
Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiology, 1997The current therapeutic options for right atrial thrombi-surgical embolectomy and thrombolysis-are associated with high mortality and such patients often have contraindications to these therapeutic options. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of endovascular right atrial embolectomy.

Mechanical thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke
Revue Neurologique, 2017Recent randomized trials have demonstrated the efficacy of stent retriever thrombectomy, in association with intravenous thrombolysis, in acute ischemic stroke related to the occlusion of the distal internal carotid artery or the proximal middle cerebral artery within six hours of symptom onset.
