Description
Hamada Salama and three co-authors report outcomes of mechanical thrombectomy in posterior circulation stroke, in a study published in 2026. Thrombectomy is proven for front circulation strokes, but its value at the back of the brain is less sure. Their prospective cohort held 16 patients with large vessel blockage, treated within 24 hours and meeting set scan and severity rules.
About two thirds reached full reopening of the vessel, and the rest reached partial reopening. At three months, most patients had an excellent functional result. Poor outcomes tracked with higher severity scores, later arrival and longer door-to-puncture times. Good collateral flow and full reperfusion marked the better group, the authors report.
