Timing of acute carotid artery stenting for tandem lesions in patients with acute ischemic stroke: A Maastricht Stroke Quality Registry (MaSQ-Registry) study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

To better understand the influence of treatment strategies on outcomes for patients with tandem lesions undergoing acute internal carotid artery (ICA) stenting during endovascular treatment (EVT), this study compared clinical, technical, and safety outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke due to a large vessel occlusion (LVO) who underwent ICA stenting before versus after intracranial thrombectomy.

Methods

This single-center retrospective cohort study included patients who underwent EVT due to a LVO and periprocedural ICA stenting for significant ICA stenosis or occlusion between September 2020 and January 2023. Data were extracted from the Maastricht Stroke Quality Registry (MaSQ-Registry). Primary outcome was the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at 3 months. S
