UNLABELLED: The implementation of ischemic stroke therapy has created new opportunities for clinical improvement and the reversal of adverse prognosis in patients with ischemic stroke. Mechanical thrombectomy has become the recommended treatment for acute stroke in a select group of patients and in highly specialized centres with experience in endovascular therapy.
AIM: The aim of the study was to evaluate of the efficacy and safety of mechanical thrombectomy in patients with acute ischemic stroke within the first six hours of illness was reported.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: 34 patients previously hospitalized in the Department of Neurology due to ischemic stroke were included in the study during the first six hours of illness. Short-term efficacy and safety (1 month after surgery) and long-term (3 months) were evaluated based on the assessment of early mortality, functional status and neurological status. Factors that increase the risk of death were also analyzed.
RESULTS: In the study group, the recanalization of the vessel was obtained in 52% of patients, which was associated with a significant improvement of functional status. Improvements in functional and neurological status were obtained in most of the patients (63%), including very good functional status (mRS 0-1) in 7 (20%) patients upon discharge from the hospital.
CONCLUSIONS: In the study group, the recanalization of the vessel was obtained in 52% of patients, which was associated with a significant improvement of functional status. Improvements in functional and neurological status were obtained in most of the patients (63%), including very good functional status (mRS 0-1) in 7 (20%) patients upon discharge from the hospital.
