Interventional stroke treatment - Is it also safe for arteries? Looking at thrombectomy wall damage through clot histology.
CONCLUSIONS: The overall risk of arterial vessel wall injury aspiration thrombectomy was low in our study. Aspiration thrombectomy and the procedure related with a retrieving device together with an ischemia time longer than 6 hours may increase the risk of vessel injury through the thrombectomy procedure. Further investigations are necessary to elucidate the influence of the mentioned aspects.
