...Xiaoshan Gao; Tianhong Wang; Jun Chen; Jiangjun Chen; Ying Wang; Kui Yang; Youquan Gu; Lihe Yao Introduction: Primitive trigeminal artery (PTA) is a rare intracranial vascular malformation, and mechanical thrombectomy and revascularization via PTA are rarely reported. Case Presentation: We reported...

... artery. Intra-arterial mechanical thrombectomy with carotid stenting was performed immediately, and recanalization was achieved. The patient fully recovered and was discharged after a 1-week hospitalization. Our experience suggests that early intervention for radiation-related carotid stenosis might...

..., edoxaban was replaced with aspirin. However, the patient suffered from recurrent cerebral embolism with conscious disturbance. Urgent mechanical thrombectomy was performed due to left internal carotid artery occlusion. Remarkable recovery was noted on the second day after thrombectomy. She was discharged...

We present a case of severe CVT who did not respond to conventional anticoagulation therapy but responded well to mechanical thrombectomy (MT). This report highlights the features of CVT to consider for early MT. edmondlkf@gmail.com 31...

... of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores (≤5). However, due to the natural course of the disease, the individuals may subsequently develop worsening symptoms. To date, there is lack of evidence-based guidelines on mechanical thrombectomy (MT) among those patients. Therefore, the predicting factors associated...

...Sverre Myren-Svelstad; Tommy A. Hammer; Titto T. Idicula Many recent trials show the benefit of mechanical thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke caused by thrombi lodged in large arteries. We report the case of a 55-year-old patient who developed sudden-onset right-sided hemiplegia and aphasia...

... hyperdense middle cerebral arteries due to occlusion of the M1 segments. Mechanical thrombectomy of the right middle cerebral artery was successfully performed. During that time, thrombosis on the left side had progressed to carotid T occlusion, which was recanalized as well. The patient had a good outcome...
