Background And Purpose: A single-aspiration maneuver using a large-volume syringe is a common and effective technique for aspiration thrombectomy. Multiple aspiration cycles using large aspiration syringes have been proposed as a means to improve the efficacy over single aspiration. In this study, we sought to investigate the efficacy of a "triple aspiration technique" in which a large-volume syringe is cycled 3 times before catheter retraction during aspiration thrombectomy.

SSS dAVFs can be divided into two main subtypes. The first type involves direct arterialization of the SSS, whereas the second type consists of a parasagittal arteriovenous shunt draining into a cortical vein directly lateral to the SSS and has retrograde cortical venous drainage with only secondary involvement of the SSS.

The study aims to highlight a large center experience and the variables associated with treatment failure and build experimental machine learning (ML) models for outcome prediction.
Material And Methods: A 2-year experience in MMAE for managing patients with chronic subdural hematoma was analyzed.
