Luca Scarcia: Rescue Stenting Superior When Posterior Circulation Thrombectomy Fails
Luca Scarcia, Assistant Editor at Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“We strike again
Vertebrobasilar occlusion. Thrombectomy fails. Stop… or stent?
Our new systematic review and meta-analysis just published in the Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery!
6 cohort studies · 1,259 patients · rescue stenting vs procedural termination
- Favorable outcome (mRS 0–3) doubled
- Functional independence (mRS 0–2) doubled
- 90-day mortality down 39 percent
- sICH: no significant difference
When thrombectomy fails in the posterior circulation, walking away may not be the safest move…
Randomized trials: your turn.”
