Abstract TMP94: Association of Acute Carotid Stenting With Functional Outcome Mediated by Excellent Reperfusion in Tandem Lesions: Analysis of a Multicenter Registry

Stroke Journal

However, a gap in understanding persists regarding the underlying causal pathophysiological mechanism of this relationship when compared to angioplasty alone. A significant proportion (53%) of the treatment effect of acute CAS on functional outcome was found to be mediated through the improvement of excellent reperfusion rates.
