Penumbra system: a novel mechanical thrombectomy device for large-vessel occlusions in acute stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Large IC artery occlusion is often resistant to recanalization. We present our initial experience with the PS. MATERIALS AND METHODS Presenting with a severe acute ischemic stroke, the first 27 consecutive patients were considered for thromboaspiration therapy and retrospective data base analysis. All patients received standard thrombectomy treatment as monotherapy or i...
متن کاملMechanical thrombectomy for acute stroke with the alligator retrieval device.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Recanalization of occluded vessels in acute ischemic stroke is associated with improved outcome. Devices that can quickly and safely remove thrombus and promote recanalization are useful in the management of these patients. The Alligator retrieval device, developed for endovascular foreign body retrieval, may also be useful for thrombus removal. METHODS Seven patients w...
متن کاملMechanical thrombectomy for acute stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We evaluated a mechanical thrombectomy protocol to treat acute stroke and report the angiographic results and clinical outcomes. METHODS Patients with anterior circulation strokes <8 hours and posterior circulation strokes <12 hours were treated at a single center over 10 months. Patients were excluded if they were candidates for intravenous tissue plasminogen activator...
متن کاملTrevo versus Merci retrievers for thrombectomy revascularisation of large vessel occlusions in acute ischaemic stroke (TREVO 2): a randomised trial.
BACKGROUND Present mechanical devices are unable to achieve recanalisation in up to 20-40% of large vessel occlusion strokes. We compared efficacy and safety of the Trevo Retriever, a new stent-like device, with its US Food and Drug Administration-cleared predecessor, the Merci Retriever. METHODS In this open-label randomised controlled trial, we recruited patients at 26 sites in the USA and ...
متن کاملMechanical thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke: catch device.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Mechanical thrombectomy presents today a promising alternative to traditional stroke therapies. Our aim with this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Catch mechanical thrombectomy device in the treatment of acute stroke and report the angiographic results and clinical outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed an analysis of 40 consecutive patients wi...
