reDistal RCTs:enrollment challenges(lack of equipose), most done w SR in older pt. Comes down to selection, getting in/out safely.Talk to your stroke team, assess your own outcomes-dont give up on these patients! High nihss 60yo Aspiration, fast recan,better on table!

New multicenter study reveals limitations of medical management for infectious intracranial aneurysms (IIAs). Early surgical or endovascular intervention shows better outcomes for high-risk patients. 🧠💉 #NeuroSurgery #StrokeCare JNIS bit.ly/43JL2oV
