IMPACT OF ENDOVASCULAR THERAPY IN ACUTE ANTERIOR CIRCULATION OCCLUSION (AACLVO) WITH LARGE ISCHEMIC CORE WITHIN 6 HOURS AFTER ONSET
Main Article Content
Abstract
Background: The impact of endovascular therapy (EVT) for patients who have an ischemic core with ASPECTS 0–5 within 6 hours after onset was not established. Objective: To evaluate the outcome of EVT for AACLVO with DWI-ASPECTS score 0-5 admitted to hospital within 6 hours. Materials and methods: This was a cross-sectional study. Patients with DWIASPECTS scores 0-5 caused by AACLVO admitted to S.I.S Can Tho General Hospital within 6 hours after onset were enrolled. The primary outcome was defined as a 90-day modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 0–3. The secondary outcome was 90-day mortality. Results: A total of 43 patients were included, the overall rates of patients with 90-day mortality and mRS 0-3 were 16.3% and 62.8%, respectively. Conclusion: EVT may increase the likelihood of a favorable functional outcome in AACLVO within 6 hours after onset.
