Ettore Nicolini: Optimizing First-Pass Reperfusion in Basilar Artery Occlusion
Ettore Nicolini, Researcher at Sapienza University of Rome and Neurologist at New Castelli Hospital, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article he and his colleagues co-authored, published in Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery (JNIS), adding:
“How to approach Basilar artery occlusion with EVT?
New analysis from IRETAS out now in Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery: contact aspiration may achieve higher first‑pass complete reperfusion and better post-mFPE 90‑day outcomes than stent retrievers, supporting less‑traumatic first‑line strategies.”
