Review Meta Analysis
Effect of baseline characteristics on the outcome of stent retriever based thrombectomy in acute basilar artery occlusions-a single center experience and pooled-data analysis.
To explore the association of baseline characteristics and the outcome of patients with acute basilar artery occlusion (BAO) after stent retriever-based thrombectomy (SRT). ⋯ SRT with or without additional treatment appeared to be effective for the treatment of BAO. Successful reperfusion, distal segment occlusion, and cardiac embolism were associated with favorable outcome. The overall benefit of lesions requiring additional reperfusion therapy was unclear.
