Abstract:Introduction. It is believed that vascular anatomy has a direct influence on the complexity and course of mechanical thrombectomy, and its outcome determines the degree of reperfusion and clinical effect.
Aim. To analyze the influence of the curvature of the intracranial arteries and the composition of the thrombus on the results of thrombectomy.
Materials and methods. 64 patients who underwent mechanical thrombectomy for acute proximal occlusion of the ICA or MCA were prospectively examined. (44ma… Show more
