Angiographic Systems for Classifying Distal Arterial Occlusions.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Extensive randomized controlled clinical trials for endovascular thrombectomy in anterior circulation large vessel occlusions (internal carotid arteries and M1 segment of middle cerebral arteries) have been published over the past decade, but there have not been randomized controlled trials for distal arterial occlusions to date. Distal arterial occlusion randomized controlled trials are essential to decide on patient selection, imaging criteria, and endovascular approach to improve the outcome and reduce complications.

Summary

The definition of distal arterial occlusion is however unclear, and we believe that a uniform nomenclature of distal arterial occlusions is essential for the design of robust randomized controlled studies. We undertook a systematic literatu
