“…A mechanical thrombectomy (MTB) technique using a double stent retriever (DSR) has been recently reported as a successful approach to treat patients suffering from an acute ischemic stroke (AIS) due to the occlusion of a large vessel of the anterior circulation. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12] Compared with a single stent retriever (SSR) technique, a DSR would ensure a larger metal surface interacting with the clot and an associated pincer effect, thus increasing the odds of successful capture. On the other hand, such an approach would lead to a greater force exerted by the two SRs over the vessel wall, potentially increasing the risks of vessel damage.…”
