Experience With Neuroform Atlas Stenting as Rescue Endovascular Treatment After Failed Mechanical Thrombectomy Secondary to Intracranial Atherosclerosis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Patients with emergent large vessel occlusion secondary to intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis who fail mechanical thrombectomy pose a treatment challenge. The aim of this study is to report our single-center experience using the Neuroform Atlas stent as a potential rescue modality.

Methods

Data were analyzed from a prospectively maintained database at a Comprehensive Stroke Center between January 2019 and September 2021 of all patients with intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis-emergent large vessel occlusion who underwent mechanical thrombectomy and required rescue stenting with the Neuroform Atlas. We systematically gathered demographic, clinical, procedural, and functional characteristics on patients presenting with emergent large vessel occlusion within 24
