Fast Stent Retrieval Improves Recanalization Rates of Thrombectomy: Experimental Study on Different Thrombi [INTERVENTIONAL]

CONCLUSIONS: In our experimental model, a fast removal improved recanalization rates of mechanical thrombectomy, especially in the case of fibrin-rich clots. An in vivo confirmation is warranted to see whether our findings can have an impact in clinical practice.
