E-245 Association of pre-treatment cerebral microbleeds with hemorrhagic transformation following successful endovascular recanalization in patients with acute ischemic stroke arising from large artery occlusion

ConclusionsThese findings suggest that the presence of CMBs is associated with HT and poor functional outcome following EVT and had no effect on mortality in patients with successful endovascular recanalization. However, CMBs do not show such a high impact on HT as other literature in our study. Therefore, it seems appropriate to consider CMB status in individual risk stratification of poor clinical outcome following recanalization by EVT with AIS. Future large and well-designed prospective studies are required to better characterize the underlying factors behind CMB-associated clinical deterioration.Abstract E-245 Figure 1Disclosures S.
