Objective: The Solitaire Platinum 4×40 mm stent retriever contains radiopaque markers with a long length. We evaluated the effect of Solitaire Platinum 4×40 mm stent retriever in Solumbra technique thrombectomy, and compared it with shorter Solitaire stent retrievers.

Methods: A total of 70 patients who underwent Solumbra technique thrombectomy with equal diameter (4 mm) and different length (40 vs. 20 mm) Solitaire stent retrievers were divided into two groups : the Solitaire Platinum 4×40 mm stent (4×40) group and the Solitaire FR 4×20 mm stent or Solitaire Platinum 4×20 mm stent (4×20) group. The clinical outcomes, Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction score, the first pass reperfusion status, and complications were evaluated and compared between the two groups. Multivariate analysis was performed to evaluate the predictive factors for reperfusion and complete reperfusion from the first pass.

Results: Higher first-pass reperfusion and complete reperfusion were achieved in the 4×40 group (68.0% and 48.0%) than in the 4×20 group (46.7% and 33.3%; p=0.004 and 0.007, respectively). In multivariate analysis, radiopaque device and longer stent retriever were correlated with first-pass reperfusion (p=0.014 and 0.008, respectively) and first-pass complete reperfusion (p=0.022 and 0.012, respectively).

Conclusion: Our study demonstrated the usefulness of the Solitaire Platinum 4×40 mm stent retriever, which led to higher firstpass reperfusion and complete reperfusion rates than the Solitaire FR 4×20 mm stent or the Solitaire Platinum 4×20 mm stent, especially in Solumbra technique thrombectomy.

Investigation of stent retriever removal forces in an experimental model of acute ischemic stroke.

Front Neurol

October 2024

Department of Mechanical, Aerospace, and Biomedical Engineering, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, TN, United States.

Introduction: Mechanical thrombectomy becomes more complex when the occlusion occurs in a tortuous cerebral anatomy, increasing the puncture to reperfusion time and the number of attempts for clot removal. Therefore, an understanding of stent retriever performance in these locations is necessary to increase the efficiency and safety of the procedure. An investigation into the effects of occlusion site tortuosity, blood clot hematocrit, and device geometry was conducted to identify their individual influence on stent retriever removal forces.

Background: Despite the proven benefit of stent retriever thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke caused by large-vessel embolic occlusion, acute revascularization in the setting of underlying intracranial, atherosclerosis-related, and emergent large-vessel occlusion remains to be a challenge. In this case report, we present a novel revascularization technique that can be used to treat acute ischemic stroke caused by suspected intracranial, atherosclerosis-related, and emergent large-vessel occlusion of the internal carotid artery (ICA).

Case Description: This case report presents two patients with intracranial, atherosclerosis-related, and emergent large-vessel occlusion of the ICA: a 73-year-old man with a right-sided hemiparesis and aphasia and a 60-year-old man with altered level of consciousness.

Retrieval of Displaced Woven EndoBridge Intrasaccular Flow Disruptor Using Solitaire Platinum Revascularization Device.

Neurointervention

July 2022

Interventional Neuroradiology Unit, Monash Imaging, Monash Health, Melbourne, VIC, Australia.

The Woven EndoBridge (WEB; MicroVention, Aliso Viejo, CA, USA) intrasaccular flow disruptor is a therapeutic option for wide neck bifurcation intracranial aneurysms that does not require the use of adjunctive techniques such as stents or balloon remodeling. As with other endovascular devices, displacement of the WEB is a recognized complication. Few reports have been published regarding the management of this type of complication.

Purpose: The Woven Endobridge device (WEB) has become widely applied for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. Complications are rare, however, especially dislocations and migrations can potentially increase poor clinical outcome. The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of rescuing migrated Woven Endobridges using different stent retrievers.
