Abstract 225: Rescue Stenting for Posterior Circulation Strokes

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

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

Abstract TMP82: First line aspiration versus stent retriever for posterior circulation stroke; A meta-analysis

Stroke Journal

Introduction:Aspiration and stent retriever thrombectomy are the primary approaches for endovascular management of posterior circulation stroke. However, the optimal first-line choice of surgical technique remains unclear. Data analysis was performed using RevMan version 5.4.1, with statistical significance set at p < 0.05.Result:A

Predictors of Good Functional Outcomes in Posterior Circulation Stroke After Mechanical Thrombectomy With Stent Retrievers: An Individual Patient?Data Pooled Analysis From the TRACK and NASA Registries

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

Use of intravenous tissue‐type plasminogen activator, hypertension, final Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction 3, and lower baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score were independent predictors of functional outcome.
