Predictors of devastating functional outcome despite successful basilar thrombectomy

CONCLUSION: We have identified presenting stroke severity, lower glucose, and proximal basilar occlusion as predictors of devastating neurological outcome in successful basilar thrombectomy patients. These factors may be used in medical decision making or for patient selection in future clinical trials.PMID:37990546 | DOI:10.1177/15910199231216516
