Safety and Efficacy of Thrombectomy in Vietnamese Stroke Patients Selected Through Perfusion Imaging With an Onset Time Between 6-24 Hours.

Introduction Recent trials have demonstrated the remarkable benefit of endovascular treatment (EVT) up to 24 hour in patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO) and target mismatch profiles; however, benefits of late-window EVT in Vietnamese population remain poorly understood. This study aims to evaluate the real-world outcomes of EVT in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients selected using perfusion imaging within the 6- to 24-hour window. Methods A prospective study of consecutive patients with anterior circulation LVO stroke who underwent EVT within 6 to 24 hours after last known well between August 2022 and March 2024.

Outcome of Mechanical Thrombectomy for Acute Basilar Artery Occlusion in Patients with Intracranial Atherosclerotic Disease.

Introduction: Intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) has been identified as a major cause of acute basilar artery occlusion (BAO).This study compared the characteristics and treatment outcomes in acute BAO patients with and without ICAD.

Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted at 115 People's Hospital, Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam from August 2021 to June 2023.
