In Vitro Analysis of the Efficacy of Endovascular Thrombectomy Techniques according to the Vascular Tortuosity Using 3D Printed Models [INTERVENTIONAL]

CONCLUSIONS: The tortuous vascular anatomy may worsen the first-pass effect and distal emboli rates. The combined techniques failed to show improvement in outcome due to the shearing-off phenomenon of the thrombus during retrieval.
