Clinical and imaging predictors for hemorrhagic transformation of acute ischemic stroke after endovascular thrombectomy.

Background And Purpose: Hemorrhagic transformation (HT) is a common complication of endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Our study aims to investigate the clinical and imaging predictors of HT and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) in patients who underwent EVT.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of 118 patients undergoing EVT for acute anterior circulation stroke was performed.
