Diagnosis and management of tandem occlusion in acute ischemic stroke [PDF]
Approximately 20–30% of patients with acute ischemic stroke, caused by large intracranial vessel occlusion, have a tandem lesion, defined as simultaneous presence of high-grade stenosis or occlusion of the cervical internal carotid artery and ...

Thrombolysis Improves Reperfusion and the Clinical Outcome in Tandem Occlusion Stroke Related to Cervical Dissection: TITAN and ETIS Pooled Analysis [PDF]
Background and Purpose Despite the widespread adoption of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for the treatment of large vessel occlusion stroke (LVOS) in the anterior circulation, the optimal strategy for the treatment tandem occlusion related to cervical ...

Endovascular Therapy of Tandem Occlusions: Baseline Characteristics and Outcomes Compared With Intracranial Occlusion [PDF]
Background Endovascular therapy is highly effective in stroke caused by large vessel occlusion. Guidelines support treatment in case of occlusion of the intracranial internal carotid artery or the first segment of the middle cerebral artery.

Emergent carotid endarterectomy and mechanical thrombectomy in tandem occlusion. [PDF]
Background: Acute tandem occlusions, or occlusions of the extracranial portion of the internal carotid artery (ICA) with concurrent thromboembolism of the intracranial ICA or middle cerebral artery, poses a major clinical challenge, with patients suffering worse outcomes compared to those with single occlusions.

Stenting Versus Non-stenting Strategy in Endovascular Treatment of Acute Anterior Ischemic Stroke Patients with Tandem Occlusion [PDF]
Background and Objectives: The optimal endovascular treatment (EVT) strategy for acute tandem occlusion patients has not been decided yet, and a knowledge gap still exists in the literature. Therefore, we aimed to compare the two different interventional

Endovascular Treatment With or Without Intravenous Thrombolysis for Acute Ischemic Stroke Due to Tandem Occlusion: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis [PDF]
Background Endovascular treatment (EVT) has been demonstrated to be effective for patients with tandem occlusion. The efficacy and safety of intravenous thrombolysis before EVT in patients with tandem occlusion remain debatable.

Delayed reperfusion therapy for ischemic stroke tandem occlusion with subsequent secondary prophylaxis of cerebral ischemic events: A case report and literature review [PDF]
Mechanical thrombectomy is currently the gold standard treatment of large vessel occlusions, especially in anterior circulation acute ischemic stroke. At the same time, the problem of tandem occlusions seems especially important since most of the major ...
