P-027 The size of the target vessel affects the performance of aspiration thrombectomy: patterns of reperfusion failures reproduced in a swine large vessel occlusion model

ConclusionVessel size appears to influence the performance of aspiration thrombectomy. Absence of flow in the aspiration system did not always reflect the clot engagement. It is important to apply contact aspiration especially in small vessels to prevent vessel collapse and to increase efficacy of the treatment.Abstract P-027 Figure 1Disclosures I.
