Factors Associated with Failure of Reperfusion in Endovascular Therapy for Acute Ischemic Stroke : A Multicenter Analysis.

Aim: In acute large vessel occlusions, endovascular therapy (EVT) achieves flow restoration in the majority of cases; however, EVT fails to achieve sufficient reperfusion in a substantial minority of patients. This study aimed to identify predictors of failed reperfusion.

Methods: In this study 2211 patients from the German Stroke Registry who received EVT for anterior circulation stroke were retrospectively analyzed.
