The impact of occlusion location and bridging therapy in patients affected by acute ischemic stroke in determining the total number of passes required to remove the clot and the final revascularization outcome
(WFITN (World Federation of Interventional and Therapeutic Neuroradiology), 2019-10-21)
Purpose
Our purpose was to assess the impact of occlusion location in patients suffering from Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS) on the total number of passes (attempts) necessary to retrieve the clot and on final revascularization ...
Does bridging therapy in mechanical thrombectomy increase recanalization rates in ischemic stroke patients affected by acute large vessel occlusion?
(SAGE Publications, 2019-05-22)
Both intravenous thrombolysis with tissue plasminogen activator (IV-rtPA) and mechanical thrombectomy (MT) increase recanalization rates. We assessed if bridging-therapy (the concomitant use of rtPA and MT) could increase ...
