P154/193 Impact of stent-retriever tip design on distal embolization during mechanical thrombectomy: a randomized in vitro evaluation

ConclusionsWhen facing fragment-prone clots, the filter-tip SR significantly reduces the number of large clots (>1 mm) that embolize distally during an MT procedure, potentially increasing the chances of first-pass complete recanalization.Disclosure of InterestMR received research funding from Medtronic andVesalioMR declares ownership of Anaconda Biomed and Methinks shares.
