| Zusammenfassung: | Stroke related to large vessel occlusion is a leading cause of disability and death worldwide. Advances in endovascular therapy to reopen occluded arteries have been shown to reduce patient disability and mortality. Expanded indications to treat patients with large vessel occlusion in the late window (>6 h from symptom onset), with basilar artery occlusion, and with large ischaemic core at presentation have enabled treatment of more patients with simplified imaging methods. Ongoing knowledge gaps include an understanding of which patients with large ischaemic infarct are more likely to benefit from endovascular therapy, the role of endovascular therapy in patients who present with low National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale scores or medium or distal vessel occlusion, and optimal management of patients with underlying intracranial atherosclerotic disease. As reperfusion can now be facilitated by intravenous thrombolysis, mechanical thrombectomy, or both, the development of cytoprotective or adjunctive drugs to slow infarct growth, enhance reperfusion, or decrease haemorrhagic risk has gained renewed interest with the hope to improve patient outcomes. |
