Abstract WP179: Clinical Outcomes in Acute Stroke in Patients Undergoing Emergency Intracranial Stenting Receiving IV Thrombolysis

Stroke Journal

In cases of stent-retriever thrombectomy failure, rescue stent angioplasty might be the sole option for achieving permanent recanalization. Among patients who underwent emergency intracranial stenting, 66 (30.6%) received intravenous thrombolytic treatment. 10.43, p=0.0325).Conclusions:The 10.43, p=0.0325).Conclusions:The

Abstract WP253: A Multicenter, Prospective, Randomized Controlled Trial of Endovascular Treatment with or without Intravenous ThromBolysis in Acute Ischemic Stroke of Basilar Artery Occlusion (BEST-BAO): Study Protocol

Stroke Journal

Background and Aims:Endovascular treatment (EVT) alone has been confirmed to be non-inferior to intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) followed with EVT in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) due to large-vessel occlusion of the anterior circulation.

Abstract 225: Rescue Stenting for Posterior Circulation Strokes

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

Rescue treatment with stenting, balloon angioplasty, and/or intraarterial thrombolysis or antiplatelets are often required to treat the underlying stenosis. 4 Recent literature has reported clinical benefits associated with rescue stenting in the setting of ICAD‐related MT‐refractory strokes.5

Aspiration Versus Stent?Retriever as First?Line Endovascular Therapy Technique for Primary Medium and Distal Intracranial Occlusions: A Propensity?Score Matched Multicenter Analysis

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

BackgroundFor acute proximal intracranial artery occlusions, contact aspiration may be more effective than stent‐retriever for first‐line reperfusion therapy. stent‐retriever versus 55.5% stent‐retriever versus 55.5% stent‐retriever versus 55.5% versus 23.8%;P=0.10). versus 23.8%;P=0.10). versus 23.8%;P=0.10).

Abstract 123: First Off?Label Use of the XIENCE Skypoint Stent for Mechanical Thrombectomy Rescue

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

Intravenous thrombolysis was deferred as the patient was on pre‐admission anticoagulants. XIENCE Skypoint™ stent was deployed within the left vertebral artery (V4 segment) with restoration of flow preceded by eptifibatide drip (Fig 2). Rescue strategies to increase MT success in the posterior circulation have been explored.

Abstract 234: Antithrombotic use in Emergent Cervical Carotid Artery Stenting in Thrombectomy

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

IntroductionCurrent literature suggests a benefit in functional outcomes and reperfusion rates when carotid artery stenting (CAS) and mechanical thrombectomy (MT) are performed emergently. Stent placement was feasible in all cases. Dual antiplatelet therapy with aspirin and clopidogrel was used in 15 patients before stenting.

Abstract 236: Effects of intravenous thrombolysis on thrombectomy outcomes: a systematic review and meta?analysis

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

IntroductionEfficacy and safety of intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) in patients undergoing mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is still debatable. However, IVT's efficacy on stent retriever (SR) and aspiration thrombectomy (ASP) outcomes specifically remain unclear. ResultsWe included four randomized controlled trials with 1176 patients.
