Outcomes with Endovascular Treatment of Patients with M2 Segment MCA Occlusion in the Late Time Window [INTERVENTIONAL]

CONCLUSIONS: In the late time window, patients with M2 occlusions treated with endovascular thrombectomy achieved better clinical outcomes, similar reperfusion, and lower symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage rates compared with patients with M1 occlusion. These results support the safety and benefit of endovascular thrombectomy in patients with M2 occlusions in the late window.
