Safety of Adjunctive Intraarterial Tenecteplase Following Mechanical Thrombectomy: The ALLY Pilot Trial.

Background: Recent studies suggest that the use of adjunctive intraarterial alteplase after mechanical thrombectomy (MT) may improve outcomes; however, there are limited data on the use of intraarterial tenecteplase, a newer-generation lytic, in this acute ischemic stroke patient population. Here, we evaluate the use of intraarterial tenecteplase in the ALLY pilot study (Adjunctive Intraarterial Tenecteplase Following Mechanical Thrombectomy).

Methods: ALLY was a prospective, single-center, nonrandomized pilot study assessing the feasibility and safety of intraarterial tenecteplase up to 4.

Trevo 6 × 25mm vs. 4 × 30mm in Mechanical Thrombectomy of M1 LVO.

Our primary objective was to determine the successful rate of recanalization of M1 large vessel occlusion using either the Trevo 4 × 30 mm or 6 × 25 mm stent during mechanical thrombectomy. Our secondary objectives were to determine differences between the use of these two stent retrievers regarding first-pass effect, periprocedural complications, and mortality in the first 90 days. This is a retrospective cohort study.
