Association of Regular Thrombus Surface Phenotype With Complete Recanalization in First-Line Contact Aspiration Thrombectomy for Basilar Artery Occlusion

Conclusion: The efficacy of CA may differ according to the angiographic thrombus surface phenotype in patients with BAO. A regular phenotype is associated with higher rates of complete recanalization in first-line CA. However, assessment of thrombus phenotype is frequently not feasible in BAO.
