Hemorrhagic transformation (HT) is a common complication of endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Our study aims to investigate the clinical and imaging predictors of HT and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) in patients who underwent EVT. ⋯ Collateral status, ASPECTS, relative CBF ratio, and blood glucose on admission were predictors for HT in AIS patients, while collateral status, ASPECTS, and blood glucose on admission were also predictors for sICH. In addition, the established predictive model showed good diagnostic value for prediction of HT after EVT.
