Stent retrievers: the future treatment of choice for endovascular recanalization in acute ischemic stroke
نویسندگان
چکیده
sICH was higher in the IAT group, partial or complete recanalization and good functional outcome at 90 days were significantly higher in this group. The US FDA required a second confirmatory study in order to approve IAT as a standard therapy in AIS. However, for multiple reasons, including the development of the potentially safer and more effective clot retrieval devices, such a study never substantialized.

Two placebo-controlled trials have shown that early administration of intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) after ischemic stroke improves outcomes up to 4.5 h after symptoms onset; however, six other trials contradict these results. We also know from analysis of the pooled data that benefits from treatment decrease as time from stroke onset to start of treatment increase...

Acute endovascular therapy for ischemic stroke is at a pivotal juncture. Until recently, on the basis of randomized trials comparing devices, we knew that endovascular treatment options were effective in quickly restoring blood flow and that successful early recanalization was associated with better functional outcome when compared with sustained occlusion. We did not have randomized evidence t...

متن کاملTechniques for endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke: from intra-arterial fibrinolytics to stent-retrievers.
Early recanalization of occluded vessels in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) by either intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) or endovascular revascularization has been shown to be associated with improved clinical outcomes and reduced mortality. Since the initial report regarding endovascular treatment (EVT) of AIS in 1983, endovascular techniques have been tremendously improved, advancing fr...
