Aim: To assess technical results and close functional outcomes of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in patients treated with endovascular thrombecomy (ET) in regional vascular centers (RVC) of St-Petersburg.

Material And Methods: Retrospective analysis of 183 patients with AIS, including 143 patients with AIS due to a large intracranial vessel occlusion in anterior (AC) and 25 patients in posterior cerebral (PC) circulation, 15 with isolated extracranial carotid occlusion treated in 6 RVC in 2017 was performed. All patients underwent ET.

Results And Conclusion: Effective reperfusion (mTICI 2b-3) was achieved in 71.5% (71.3% AC, 72% PC). On discharge, 35,7% patients had good (mRs 0-2) functional outcome (37.1% AC, 28% PC). The incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (according to ECASS II criteria) was 10.7% (9.1% AC, 20% PC), the mortality was 29.2% (22.4% AC, 68% PC).). The results of our study show the possibility of effective and safe application of ET in patients with AIS in the anterior and posterior cerebral circulation in regional vascular centers of St.-Petersburg.
