New ‘small-vessel occlusion’ definition may hold key to reproducible outcomes in...
Owing to the “confusion” created by recent randomised controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating mechanical thrombectomy in more distally located stroke-causing occlusions, the neurointerventional community should...
Refined patient selection and tailored devices revitalise thrombectomy for MeVO stroke
Late-breaking data from two randomised controlled trials (RCTs) presented at this year’s International Stroke Conference (ISC; 4–6 February, New Orleans, USA) have found mechanical...

More work needed in MeVOs—but cyclic aspiration could be thrombectomy’s next...
Given the procedure’s long-proven effectiveness, present-day advances in stroke thrombectomy treatments tend to be relatively incremental. That said, Jan Gralla (University Hospital of Bern,...
