RESUMO

In patients with acute ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic transformation (HT) of infarcted tissue frequently occurs after reperfusion treatment. We aimed to assess whether HT and its severity influences the start of secondary prevention therapy and increases the risk of stroke recurrence. In this retrospective dual-center study, we recruited ischemic stroke patients treated with thrombolysis, thrombectomy or both. Our primary outcome was the time between revascularization and the start of any secondary prevention therapy. The secondary outcome was ischemic stroke recurrence within three months. We compared patients with vs. without HT and no (n = 653), minor (n = 158) and major (n = 51) HT patients using propensity score matching. The delay in the start of antithrombotics or anticoagulants was median 24 h in no HT, 26 h in minor HT and 39 h in major HT. No and minor HT patients had similar rates of any stroke recurrence (3.4% (all ischemic) vs. 2.5% (1.6% ischemic plus 0.9% hemorrhagic)). Major HT patients had a higher stroke recurrence at 7.8% (3.9% ischemic, 3.9% hemorrhagic), but this difference did not reach significance. A total of 22% of major HT patients did not start any antithrombotic treatment during the three-month follow-up. In conclusion, the presence of HT influences the timing of secondary prevention in ischemic stroke patients undergoing reperfusion treatments. Minor HT did not delay the start of antithrombotics or anticoagulants compared to no HT, with no significant difference in safety outcomes. Major HT patients remain a clinical challenge with both a delayed or lacking start of treatment. In this group, we did not see a higher rate of ischemic recurrence; however, this may have been censored by elevated early mortality. While not reaching statistical significance, hemorrhagic recurrence was somewhat more common in this group, warranting further study using larger datasets.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: We sought to verify the predicting role of a favorable profile on computed tomography perfusion (CTP) in the outcome of patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) due to large vessel occlusion (LVO) undergoing effective mechanical thrombectomy (MT). METHODS: We retrospectively enrolled 25 patients with AIS due to LVO and with a CTP study showing the presence of ischemic penumbra who underwent effective MT, regardless of the time of onset. The controls were 25 AIS patients with overlapping demographics and clinical and computed tomography angiography features at admission who had undergone successful MT within 6 h from onset and without a previous CTP study. The outcome measure was the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score at 90 days. RESULTS: Sixty-four percent of the study patients had an mRS score of 0-1 at 90 days versus 12% of the control patients (p < 0.001). Patients of the study group had a more favorable distribution of disability scores (median mRS [IQR] score of 0 [0-2] vs. 2 [2-3]). Multivariate analysis showed that the selection of patients based on a favorable CTP study was strongly associated (p < 0.001) with a better neurological outcome. CONCLUSIONS: In our small-sized and retrospective study, the presence of ischemic penumbra was associated with a better clinical outcome in patients with AIS due to LVO after MT. In the future, a larger and controlled study with similar criteria of enrollment is needed to further validate the role of CTP in patient selection for MT, regardless of the time from the onset of symptoms.
