Trend towards EVT in 243 P2/3 occlusions: discharge NIHSS decrease 3.9 vs. 2.4 (EVT+BMT vs. BMT, p=0.06). Significant EVT effects if admission NIHSS 10+ and in pts. without IVT. No ICH difference. bit.ly/3urjbGe ESMINT Society European Stroke Org SNIS Info Marios Psychogios Mayank Goyal

Great paper summarizing the effectiveness of secondary DMVO's (Distal Medium Vessel Occlusions) of the posterior circulation among 71 patients who met the inclusion criteria. jnis.bmj.com/content/early/…

Small diameter, 1.1mm distal M2 occlusion: 77 y/o female with aphasia, hemiparesis and eyes deviation was rushed to the hospital with an M2 occlusion. NIHSS 13. TICI 3 was achieved and the NIHSS dropped to 6. Great case Dr. Michael Findler! Rabin Medical Center, Israel.

Excellent #Tigertriever13 application and distal vessel recanalization at Luzerner Kantonsspital, of a secondary ACA (A3) occlusion. Pt. had a carotid dissection (initial NIHSS: 7) and rtPA was started.

MCA was recanalized by one pass with Solitaire. ACA (A3) was recanalized with one pass of #Tiger13, both in combination with Sofia plus. The ACA territory could be saved, however major parts of the MCA territory infarcted. Upon discharge to rehab, the patient had 15 points NIHSS.

Did you know? DMVOs cause 25% to 40% of AISs*, as published in a 2020 article on Stroke AHA/ASA. How are you currently treating medium to distal vessels? *ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/ST…
