Stent retrieval system is an established treatment modality in acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion. Here, we describe a complication which occurred during mechanical thrombectomy in three cases where the clot dislodged during retrieval. There was a possibility of the clot getting reinjected into the artery with possible dire consequences.

Outcome of Mechanical Thrombectomy in Patients Older Than 85 Years: A Single Center Experience.

Objectives: Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) has revolutionized the treatment of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Still, the efficacy and safety in patients older than 85 years of age are not conclusive by the present randomized controlled trials' data (RCT). Aging is a multifactorial process and the impact of MT on this specific population needs to be further analyzed.

Introduction: Intravenous tirofiban (IT) is shown to be potentially effective in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients submitted to mechanical thrombectomy, despite its safety and efficacy are not well established. However, there is a lack of evidence on the effects of IT on endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in patients with AIS due to large artery atherosclerosis (LAA).
Objectives: To assess the safety and efficacy of IT in AIS patients due to LAA submitted to EVT.

Background: Perihilar cholangiocarcinoma presents unique challenges in perioperative management, requiring a comprehensive approach to optimize patient outcomes.
Aims: This case study focuses on the multidisciplinary management and innovative interventions performed in the perioperative care of a patient with hilar cholangiocarcinoma.
Methods: A comprehensive assessment and treatment strategy involving neoadjuvant therapy and interventional radiology techniques were implemented.

Introduction: Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) efficacy in medium vessel occlusion (MeVO) stroke, particularly in patients with low Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score (ASPECTS), remains less explored.
Methods: This retrospective study analyzed data from 443 AIS patients treated with MT for MeVO and low ASPECTS (4-7) at 37 centers across North America, Asia, and Europe, from September 2017 to July 2021. Patients were categorized into ASPECTS of 4-5 and 6-7.

Besides intravenous thrombolysis, endovascular therapy (EVT) is also a standard treatment option for acute ischemic stroke. The clinical efficacy and safety of this procedure was proven in 2015 by several randomized controlled trials. The aim of EVT is to achieve the fastest possible recanalization of an occluded artery supplying the brain and, thus, reperfusion of the brain tissue.
