Brief Summary

In developed countries, stroke is the third leading cause of death and the leading cause of permanent disability. Systemic and endovascular thrombolytic treatments in acute cerebral ischemic stroke caused by occlusion of large caliber vessels are currently the standard of care for the acute treatment of stroke. The rationale of this study is to validate the results of this treatment on a large scale, in the context of what can be called "real life". The study will have the characteristics of a descriptive observational study on patients suffering from acute ischemic stroke treated at the Policlinico A. Gemelli-IRCCS from 1 January 2016 to 31 December 2023. These data will be compared with a retrospective control group of patients undergoing mechanical thrombectomy for cerebral ischemic stroke in our polyclinic. The primary endpoint is the outcome of patients treated with mechanical endovascular thrombectomy evaluated with the modified Ranking Scale at 90 days, while as secondary endpoints some individual characteristics of the patient will be considered (sex, age, clinical history, etc.), characteristics of the thrombus (anatomical-pathological, radiological etc) and related to acute management (therapy, rehabilitation, etc).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • 3 months mRS

    outcome of patients treated by mechanical endovascular thrombectomy evaluated with modified Ranking Scale at 90 days.

    3 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Radiological-clinical correlation

    3 months

Interventions

Endovascular thrombectomyPROCEDURE

An endovascular thrombectomy is the removal of a thrombus (blood clot) under image guidance. A thrombectomy is most commonly performed for an arterial embolism, which is an arterial blockage often caused by atrial fibrillation, a heart rhythm disorder.

Study Population

Descriptive observational study on patients with acute ischemic stroke treated at the Policlinico A. Gemelli- IRCCS from 1 January 2016 to 31 December 2023.

You may qualify if:

  • age \> 18 years
  • Acute ischemic stroke with consistent neurologic and radiologic evidence.
  • Performing a CT without contrast and a triphasic CT angiography.
  • Execution of mechanical endovascular thrombectomy procedure (whose indication is placed by a neurologist and interventional neuroradiologist).

You may not qualify if:

  • patients lost to follow-up (e.g. back-transfer).
