Randomized trial shows high recanalization rates in acute ischemic stroke, suggesting stenting improves outcomes.
Key Points
This research aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of emergent intracranial stenting during mechanical thrombectomy for patients with acute ischemic stroke.
Analyzed consecutive patients undergoing stenting during mechanical thrombectomy
Collected data on demographics, clinical parameters, and neuroradiological outcomes
Utilized repeated measures ANOVA and chi-square analysis for data evaluation
Successful recanalization achieved in 91.7% of cases
Good clinical outcome observed in 91.7% of patients at discharge
ICH occurred in 40%, with higher mortality in wake-up stroke patients (p=0.02)
