P-013 initial experience with the ace and ace64 cerebral reperfusion catheters in the endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke
ConclusionIn our initial experience, the ACE/ACE64 reperfusion catheters provide a safe and effective tool for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke using direct aspiration, in which we were able to recanalize (TICI 2B/3) 96.4% of cases, achieving good clinical results.DisclosuresP.

Intra-arterial versus intravenous abciximab therapy for thromboembolic complications of neuroendovascular procedures: case review and meta-analysis
Conclusions Abciximab produces a high rate of angiographic improvement and a low incidence of postprocedural infarct in neuroendovascular procedures complicated by thromboemboli. IA abciximab produces greater angiographic improvement than IV treatment. Postprocedural infarction is less common in patients with complete angiographic response than in those with partial or no response.

Endovascular thrombectomy alone versus combined with intravenous thrombolysis
To date, no randomized trial has directly addressed the question of whether IV tPA (IVT) improves the outcomes of IVT-eligible patients who will eventually undergo endovascular therapy (EVT) or whether a direct EVT strategy will be equally effective. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis compare the efficacy and safety of direct EVT versus endovascular treatment with intravenous therapy (EVT+IV tPA) in adults with acute ischemic stroke.
