Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality, with subsequent hematoma expansion (HE) linked to worse neurologic outcomes. Accurate, real-time predictions of the risk of HE could enable tailoring management-including blood pressure control or surgery-based on individual patient risk. Although multiple radiographic markers of HE have been proposed based on standard imaging, their clinical utility remains limited by a reliance on subjective interpretation of often ambiguous findings and a poor overall predictive power.

Objective: Safety and efficacy data for endovascular thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke secondary to large-vessel occlusion in children are lacking compared with those for adults. We undertook an updated systematic review and meta-analysis of endovascular thrombectomy in children and compared their outcomes with adult data.

Methods: We searched PubMed, Medline, and EMBASE databases to identify prospective and retrospective studies describing patients <18 years treated with endovascular thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke due to large-vessel occlusion.
