P92 Thrombectomy in ischemic stroke patients with extended lesion and time window
Abstract Introduction Only limited data is available about a potential benefit of endovascular treatment (EVT) in patients presenting in the extended time window who also show signs of extensive infarction. Aim of study To assess the effect of recanalization on functional outcome for patients in the extended time and lesion window.
P46 How much of the improvement in functional outcome after successful recanalization is explained by follow-up infarct volume reduction?
Abstract Introduction Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) has been shown to improve functional outcome in patients with anterior circulation stroke. However, previous works suggest only limited explanatory effect of infarct volume reduction on outcome in patients undergoing MT vs. standard medical care1. Aim of the study The amount of improvement of functional outcome explained by follow-up infarct volume reduction after successful recanalization has not been investigated in detail.
O21 Effect of anesthetic strategy on procedural and clinical outcomes in primary distal medium-vessel occlusion stroke: results from the TOPMOST Registry | Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery
Abstract Introduction Numerous questions regarding procedural details of thrombectomy for distal medium-vessel occlusions (DMVO) remain unanswered, including the optimal anesthetic strategy.1 Aim of study This analysis was performed to assess the effect of anesthetic strategies on outcomes and safety in patients undergoing distal thrombectomy.
O20 Thrombectomy for medium vessel occlusions: treatment effect of successful recanalization on long term functional outcome
Abstract Introduction Treatment effects of successful recanalization after mechanical thrombectomy (MT) have been evaluated for acute ischemic strokes with large vessel occlusion. However, for medium-vessel occlusions (MeVO) treatment effects of successful recanalization have not been investigated in detail. Aim of the study To quantify treatment effects of different degrees of recanalization after MT in MeVO on long term function outcome.
O14 Benefit of thrombectomy in patients with extensive baseline stroke depends on early ischemic lesion water uptake: results from the I-LAST study
Abstract Background The benefit of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in ischemic stroke patients with ASPECTS<6 is still uncertain. ASPECTS rating is based on the presence of relative hypoattenuation, however the degree of hypoattenuation, which directly reflects net uptake of water, is currently not considered as imaging biomarker in stroke triage. We hypothesized that quantitative lesion water uptake in admission-CT mediates the effect of thrombectomy on functional outcome in low ASPECTS patients.
P82 Thrombectomy for primary isolated distal anterior cerebral artery occlusion stroke
Abstract Introduction Distal medium-vessel occlusions (DMVO) stroke represents a possible next frontier of endovascular stroke treatment. However, evidence suggesting a possible benefit remains sparse, especially in the anterior cerebral artery (ACA).1 2 Aim of study To investigate clinical and safety outcomes of primary isolated ACA occlusion stroke treated with thrombectomy.
P91 Direct thrombectomy versus intravenous bridging - the benefit of alteplase depends on ASPECTS
Abstract Introduction and aim of this study Baseline variables could be used to guide the administration of additional intravenous alteplase (IVT) before mechanical thrombectomy (MT). The aim of this study was todetermine how baseline imaging and demographic parameters modify the effect of IVT on clinical outcomes. We hypothesized that the extent of early ischemic changes modify the effect of IVT on functional outcomes in stroke patients undergoing MT.
P22 Short term imaging endpoints of flow diverter implants with and without coating for treatment of brain aneurysms: a matched pair analysis
Abstract Introduction Evidence for benefit of aneurysm treatment using coated Flow Diverter devices compared to uncoated devices is limited. Aim of study To compare short term imaging endpoints of flow diverter implants with and without coating for treatment of saccular aneurysms in a matched pair analysis. Methods We retrospectively included patients with incidental aneurysms who were treated with one or more flow diverters.
