Posterior Circulation Occlusions May Be Associated with Distal Emboli During Thrombectomy

ConclusionPosterior circulation occlusions were significantly associated with distal emboli during thrombectomy, possibly due to the lack of flow arrest during such procedures. New techniques and devices should be developed to protect against embolic complications during posterior circulation stroke thrombectomy.
