Outcomes of Endovascular Thrombectomy vs Medical Management Alone in Patients With Large Ischemic Cores: A Secondary Analysis of the Optimizing Patient's Selection for Endovascular Treatment in Acute Ischemic Stroke (SELECT) Study.
Amrou Sarraj,Ameer E Hassan,Ameer E Hassan,Sean I Savitz,Clark Sitton,James C. Grotta,Peng R Chen,Chunyan Cai,Gary Cutter,Bita Imam,Sujan T Reddy,Kaushik Parsha,Deep Pujara,Roy Riascos,Nirav Vora,Michael G. Abraham,Haris Kamal,Diogo C Haussen,Andrew D Barreto,Maarten G Lansberg,Rishi Gupta,Gregory W. Albers +21 more
TL;DR: Although the odds of good outcomes for patients with large cores who receive EVT markedly decline with increasing core size and time to treatment, these data suggest potential benefits.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A retrospective multicenter cohort study showed no improvement in excellent and independent functional outcomes in mild strokes (NIHSS, <6) receiving thrombectomy irrespective of thrombus location, with increased symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage rates, consistent with the guidelines recommending the treatment for NIHSS ≥6.

Amrou Sarraj,Ameer E Hassan,James C. Grotta,Clark Sitton,Gary Cutter,Chunyan Cai,Peng R Chen,Bita Imam,Deep Pujara,Ashish Arora,Sujan T Reddy,Kaushik Parsha,Roy Riascos,Nirav Vora,Michael G.

TL;DR: The primary imaging modalities used to select patients for endovascular thrombectomy are noncontrast computed tomography (CT) and CT perfusion (CTP) and their relative utility is uncertain.
