24-Hour Carotid Stent Patency and Outcomes After Endovascular Therapy: A Multicenter Study

Abstract

One out of 5 patients treated with carotid artery stenting during endovascular therapy presented a stent occlusion within 24 hours. This event was associated with worse functional outcome. Stroke etiology, P2Y₁₂ antagonist administration, quality of intracranial reperfusion, and angioplasty were associated with 24-hour stent patency.
