In the SWIFT and TREVO 2 trials, aspiration thrombectomy was not able to be performed. Outside these studies, in post-market application, the interventionist can use aspiration thrombectomy in addition to stent device thrombectomy. This technique is described in detail in the present report. Combined aspiration/stentriever thrombectomy may improve recanalization efforts, simplify a second thrombectomy attempt if necessary and may limit distal embolization.

Angiographic signs during mechanical thrombectomy as predictors of post-stroke epilepsy: a multicenter retrospective study.
J Neurointerv Surg
January 2025
Department of Neurology, China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University, Changchun, Jilin, China
Background: Post-stroke epilepsy (PSE) is a major complication of stroke. However, data about the predictors of PSE in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) undergoing mechanical thrombectomy are limited.
Objective: To evaluate the relationship between intraoperative angiographic signs and PSE risk in patients with anterior circulation AIS who underwent mechanical thrombectomy.
Cerebral blood volume index in the era of thrombectomy-treated large and medium vessel ischemic strokes.

The cerebral blood volume index (CBV index) is a perfusion-based marker of collateral status. Several real-world data analyses from observational stroke cohorts have established relationships between this parameter and a range of favorable and unfavorable stroke outcomes. In this review, an overview is provided of the CBV index, within the context of thrombectomy-treated large vessel and medium vessel occlusion ischemic strokes.

Background: Thrombus enhancement sign (TES) has emerged as a potential imaging biomarker in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) undergoing endovascular thrombectomy (EVT).
Objective: To evaluate the prognostic value of TES on 90-day mortality and functional outcomes.
Methods: We conducted a prospective, two-center study involving 323 patients with AIS treated with EVT.
