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

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWP179-AWP179, February 1, 2024. Background:Stent-retriever thrombectomy is the first-line therapy for acute stroke with intracranial large vessel occlusion. In cases of stent-retriever thrombectomy failure, rescue stent angioplasty might be the sole option for achieving permanent recanalization.

Abstract 225: Rescue Stenting for Posterior Circulation Strokes

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, Volume 3, Issue S2 , November 1, 2023. IntroductionIntracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) is associated with up to 32% of posterior circulation strokes.1 1 ICAD‐related strokes are at high risk for re‐occlusion following MT.

Variation in Vessel Size and Angiographic Outcomes Following Stent?Retriever Thrombectomy in Acute Ischemic Stroke: STRATIS Registry

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, Ahead of Print. BACKGROUNDMechanical thrombectomy is established for large‐vessel occlusions in acute ischemic stroke, but the potential role in distal vessel occlusions of medium arteries is less well established. Arterial diameters were measured at all these sites. mm (IQR, 1.47–2.06

Abstract TP213: Predictors of Functional Independence Among Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients Treated With Intra-Arterial Thrombolysis as Adjunct to Mechanical Thrombectomy

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP213-ATP213, February 1, 2024. Background and Purpose:Although intra-arterial thrombolysis (IAT) is widely used as adjunct with mechanical thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke patients, the patients who are likely to benefit are not known. in group A and 3.25±2.01 in group B (p=0.002).

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, Volume 3, Issue S2 , November 1, 2023. Admission National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) 20. Intravenous thrombolysis was deferred as the patient was on pre‐admission anticoagulants. Rescue strategies to increase MT success in the posterior circulation have been explored.

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

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, Volume 3, Issue S2 , November 1, 2023. IntroductionEfficacy and safety of intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) in patients undergoing mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is still debatable. ResultsWe included four randomized controlled trials with 1176 patients.
