Description
Elvan Wiyarta and co-authors present a 2025 network meta-analysis comparing first thrombectomy methods for major front-brain artery strokes. Aspiration, stent retrievers, their pairing, and balloon guide catheters are the contenders.
Nine databases yielded 44 studies with 19,268 patients. The paired method with a balloon guide ranked best for reopening the artery and for first-pass success, with odds ratios of 2.87 and 7.33 against rivals in this analysis. Outcomes also covered walking independence at 90 days, bleeding in the skull, and death. Rankings give stroke teams a map for choosing a first approach when seconds count.
