Novel technique of stent placement via gateway balloon in intracranial atherosclerosis-associated large vessel occlusion

CONCLUSION: Our preliminary experience suggests possible safety and feasibility of deploying Neuroform Atlas stent through a compatible Gateway balloon microcatheter without the need for ICH-associated microcatheter exchange. Further studies with long-term clinical and angiographic follow-up are warranted to corroborate our initial findings.PMID:37391866 | DOI:10.1111/jon.13139
