Tissue Clock Beyond Time Clock: Endovascular Thrombectomy for Patients With Large Vessel Occlusion Stroke Beyond 24 Hours

Abstract

In patients with salvageable brain tissue, MT for LVO beyond 24 hours appears to improve outcomes compared to SMT, especially in patients with severe strokes. Patients' age, ASPECTS, collaterals, and baseline NIHSS score should be considered before discounting MT merely based on LKW.
