In cases of stent-retriever thrombectomy failure, rescue stent angioplasty might be the sole option for achieving permanent recanalization. Conclusions:The use of rescue stent angioplasty can be considered after unsuccessful stent-retriever thrombectomy, along with intravenous thrombolytic therapy. 10.43, p=0.0325).Conclusions:The

IntroductionThe risk of tandem occlusion treatment in the setting of intravenous thrombolysis is unclear. Patients who received thrombolysis and subsequently underwent endovascular therapy for acute ischemic stroke between 2012 and 2022 were included. Future prospective, multi‐center studies would be beneficial.

Overall, 27/36 procedures were interventional, including 6 aortic valvuloplasties, 6 balloon angioplasties, and 15 stenting procedures. Results We identified 30 patients (66.7% males) with a median age of 1.1 months (IQR, 0.3–5.4), 5.4), and a median weight of 3.1 kg kg (IQR, 2.7–3.7). months (IQR, 1.7–5.1). mm (IQR, 2.4–3).

Rescue strategies options, including balloon angioplasty alone, rescue stenting (RS) alone, or stent with balloon angioplasty, have shown promise in observational studies and meta‐analyses [3, 4]. The patients were divided into two groups: those who received RS and those who only received MM.

Rescue treatment with stenting, balloon angioplasty, and/or intraarterial thrombolysis or antiplatelets are often required to treat the underlying stenosis. IntroductionIntracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) is associated with up to 32% of posterior circulation strokes.1
