Mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke / 国际脑血管病杂志

ABSTRACT

At present,intravenous thrombolysis within 4.5 h is still the most effective method in treatment of acute ischemic stroke.For those who do not meet the criteria of intravenous thrombolytic therapy,do not have significant improvement after intravenous thrombolysis and even worse,endovascular interventional therapy is a safe alternative treatment method.Arterial mechanical thrombectomy devices can achieve rapid and complete recanalization and provide more treatment options for patients with acute ischemic stroke.This article reviews the related technical evolution and clinical trials of mechanical thrombectomy devices.
