    Abstract: In the settings of thrombectomy, the first-pass effect (FPE), defined by a complete recanalization after one pass with no rescue therapy, has been shown to be associated with an improved outcome. As this phenomenon has been predominantly described in anterior circulation strokes, we aimed to study the prevalence, outcomes, and predictors of FPE in patients with a basilar artery occlusion. Methods: From a prospective multicentric registry, we collected the data of all consecutive basilar artery occlusion patients who underwent thrombectomy and compared the outcomes of patients who achieved FPE and those who did not. We also compared FPE patients with those who achieved a complete recanalization with 〉 1 pass. Finally, a multivariate analysis was performed to determine the predictors of FPE. Results: Data from 280 patients were analyzed in our study, including 84 of 280 patients (30%) with an atheromatous etiology. An FPE was achieved in 93 patients (33.2%), with a significantly higher proportion of good outcomes (modified Rankin Scale score 0-2 at 3 months) and lower mortality than non-FPE patients. An FPE was also associated with improved outcomes compared with patients who went on to have full recanalization with 〉 1 pass. Contact aspiration as first-line strategy was a strong predictor of FPE, whereas baseline antiplatelets and atheromatous etiology were negative predictors. Conclusions: In our study, an FPE was achieved in approximately one-third of patients with a basilar artery occlusion and was associated with improved outcomes. More research is needed to improve devices and techniques to increase the incidence of FPE. Registration: URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov ; Unique identifier: NCT03776877.

    Abstract: Management of extracranial internal carotid artery steno-occlusive lesion during endovascular therapy remains debated. Stent occlusion within 24 hours of endovascular therapy is a frequent event after acute carotid artery stenting, and we currently lack large population results. We investigated the incidence, predictors, and clinical impact of stent occlusion after acute carotid artery stenting in current clinical practice. Methods: Patients treated by endovascular therapy with acute carotid artery stenting between 2015 and 2019 in 5 large-volume endovascular-capable centers were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were separated in 2 groups according to the stent patency at 24 hours after carotid artery stenting. We compared baseline characteristics, treatment modalities, and clinical outcome depending on 24-hour stent patency. Primary end point was favorable outcome, defined as a modified Rankin Scale score 0–2 at 3 months. Results: A stent occlusion was observed in 47/225 patients (20.9%). Patients with stent patency had a lower baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (median [interquartile range]: 13 [7–17] versus 18 [12–21]) and had more often stroke of atherothrombotic origin (77.0% versus 53.2%). A higher stent patency rate was found for patients treated with P2Y 12 antagonists at the acute phase (odds ratio [OR]‚ 2.95 [95% CI‚ 1.10–7.91] ; P =0.026) and treated with angioplasty (OR‚ 2.42 [95% CI‚ 1.24–4.67]; P =0.008). A better intracranial angiographic reperfusion was observed in patients with 24-hour stent patency compared with patients without stent patency (OR‚ 8.38 [95% CI‚ 3.07–22.78]; P 〈 0.001). Patients with a stent patency at 24 hours had a higher chance of favorable outcome (OR‚ 3.29 [95% CI, 1.66–6.52]; P 〈 0.001) and a lower risk of death (OR‚ 0.32 [95% CI, 0.13–0.76]; P =0.009). Conclusions: 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, P2Y 12 antagonist administration, quality of intracranial reperfusion, and angioplasty were associated with 24-hour stent patency.

    Abstract: Procedural complications in thrombectomy for large vessel occlusions of the anterior circulation are not well described. We investigated the incidence, risk factors, and clinical implications of thrombectomy complications in daily clinical practice. Methods: We used data from the ongoing prospective multicenter observational Endovascular Treatment in Ischemic Stroke Registry in France. The present study is a retrospective analysis of 4029 stroke patients with anterior large vessel occlusions treated with thrombectomy between January 2015 and May 2020 in 18 centers. We systematically collected procedural data, incidence of embolic complications, perforations and dissections, clinical outcome at 90 days, and hemorrhagic complications. Results: Procedural complications occurred in 7.99% (95% CI, 7.17%–8.87%), and embolus to a new territory (ENT) was the most frequent (5.2%). Predictors of ENTs were terminal carotid/tandem occlusion (odds ratio [OR], 5 [95% CI, 2.03–12.31] ; P 〈 0.001) and an increased total number of passes (OR, 1.22 [95% CI, 1.05–1.41]; P =0.006). ENTs were associated to worse clinical outcomes (90-day modified Rankin Scale score, 0–2; adjusted OR, 0.4 [95% CI, 0.25–0.63]; P 〈 0.001), increased mortality (adjusted OR, 1.74 [95% CI, 1.2–2.53]; P 〈 0.001), and symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (adjusted OR, 1.87 [95% CI, 1.15–3.03]; P =0.011). Perforations occurred in 1.69% (95% CI, 1.31%–2.13%). Predictors of perforations were terminal carotid/tandem occlusions (39.7% versus 27.6%; P =0.028). 40.7% of patients died at 90 days, and the overall rate of poor outcome was 74.6% in case of perforation. Dissections occurred in 1.46% (95% CI, 1.11%–1.88%) and were more common in younger patients (median age, 64.2 versus 70.2 years; P =0.002). Dissections did not affect the clinical outcome at 90 days. Besides dissection, complications were independent of the thrombectomy technique. Conclusions: Thrombectomy complication rate is not negligible, and ENTs were the most frequent. ENTs and perforations were associated with disability and mortality, and terminal carotid/tandem occlusions were a risk factor.

    Abstract: The efficiency of prehospital care chain response and the adequacy of hospital resources are challenged amid the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak, with suspected consequences for patients with ischemic stroke eligible for mechanical thrombectomy (MT). Methods: We conducted a prospective national-level data collection of patients treated with MT, ranging 45 days across epidemic containment measures instatement, and of patients treated during the same calendar period in 2019. The primary end point was the variation of patients receiving MT during the epidemic period. Secondary end points included care delays between onset, imaging, and groin puncture. To analyze the primary end point, we used a Poisson regression model. We then analyzed the correlation between the number of MTs and the number of COVID-19 cases hospitalizations, using the Pearson correlation coefficient (compared with the null value). Results: A total of 1513 patients were included at 32 centers, in all French administrative regions. There was a 21% significant decrease (0.79; [95%CI, 0.76–0.82]; P 〈 0.001) in MT case volumes during the epidemic period, and a significant increase in delays between imaging and groin puncture, overall (mean 144.9±SD 86.8 minutes versus 126.2±70.9; P 〈 0.001 in 2019) and in transferred patients (mean 182.6±SD 82.0 minutes versus 153.25±67; P 〈 0.001). After the instatement of strict epidemic mitigation measures, there was a significant negative correlation between the number of hospitalizations for COVID and the number of MT cases ( R 2 −0.51; P =0.04). Patients treated during the COVID outbreak were less likely to receive intravenous thrombolysis and to have unwitnessed strokes (both P 〈 0.05). Conclusions: Our study showed a significant decrease in patients treated with MTs during the first stages of the COVID epidemic in France and alarming indicators of lengthened care delays. These findings prompt immediate consideration of local and regional stroke networks preparedness in the varying contexts of COVID-19 pandemic evolution.

    Abstract: The influence of prior antiplatelet therapy (APT) uses on the outcomes of patients with acute ischemic stroke treated with endovascular therapy is unclear. We compared procedural and clinical outcomes of endovascular therapy in patients on APT or not before stroke onset. Methods: We analyzed 2 groups from the ongoing prospective multicenter Endovascular Treatment in Ischemic Stroke registry in France: patients on prior APT (APT+) and patients without prior APT (APT−) treated by endovascular therapy, with and without intravenous thrombolysis. Multilevel mixed-effects logistic models including center as random effect were used to compare angiographic (rates of reperfusion at the end of procedure, procedural complications) and clinical (favorable and excellent outcome, 90-day all-cause mortality, and hemorrhagic complications) outcomes according to APT subgroups. Comparisons were adjusted for prespecified confounders (age, admission National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score, Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score, intravenous thrombolysis, and time from onset to puncture), as well as for meaningful baseline between-group differences. Results: A total of 2939 patients were analyzed, of whom 877 (29.8%) were on prior APT. Patients with prior APT were older, had more frequent vascular risk factors, cardioembolic stroke mechanism, and prestroke disability. Rates of complete reperfusion (37.9% in the APT− group versus 42.7 % in the APT+ group; aOR, 1.09 [95% CI, 0.88–1.34]; P =0.41) and periprocedural complication (16.9% versus 13.3%; aOR, 0.90 [95% CI, 0.7–1.2]; P =0.66) did not differ between the two groups. Symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (aOR, 0.93 [95% CI, 0.63–1.37]; P =0.73), 3 months favorable clinical outcome (modified Rankin Scale score of 0–2; aOR, 0.98 [95% CI, 0.77–1.25]; P =0.89), and mortality (aOR, 0.95 [95% CI, 0.72–1.26]; P =0.76) at 90 days did not differ between the groups. Conclusions: Prior APT does not influence angiographic and functional outcomes following endovascular therapy and should not be taken into account for acute revascularization strategies.

    Abstract: Endovascular therapy for tandem occlusion strokes of the anterior circulation is an effective and safe treatment. The best treatment approach for the cervical internal carotid artery (ICA) lesion is still unknown. In this study, we aimed to compare the functional and safety outcomes between different treatment approaches for the cervical ICA lesion during endovascular therapy for acute ischemic strokes due to tandem occlusion in current clinical practice. Methods: Individual patients’ data were pooled from the French prospective multicenter observational ETIS (Endovascular Treatment in Ischemic Stroke) and the international TITAN (Thrombectomy in Tandem Lesions) registries. TITAN enrolled patients from January 2012 to September 2016, and ETIS from January 2013 to July 2019. Patients with acute ischemic stroke due to anterior circulation tandem occlusion who were treated with endovascular therapy were included. Patients were divided based on the cervical ICA lesion treatment into stent and no-stent groups. Outcomes were compared between the two treatment groups using propensity score methods. Results: A total of 603 patients were included, of whom 341 were treated with acute cervical ICA stenting. In unadjusted analysis, the stent group had higher rate of favorable outcome (90-day modified Rankin Scale score, 0–2; 57% versus 45%) and excellent outcome (90-day modified Rankin Scale score, 0–1; 40% versus 27%) compared with the no-stent group. In inverse probability of treatment weighting propensity score–adjusted analyses, stent group had higher odds of favorable outcome (adjusted odds ratio, 1.09 [95% CI, 1.01–1.19]; P =0.036) and successful reperfusion (modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Ischemia score, 2b-3; adjusted odds ratio, 1.19 [95% CI, 1.11–1.27]; P 〈 0.001). However, stent group had higher odds of any intracerebral hemorrhage (adjusted odds ratio, 1.10 [95%, 1.02–1.19]; P =0.017) but not higher rate of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage or parenchymal hemorrhage type 2. Subgroup analysis demonstrated heterogeneity according to the lesion type (atherosclerosis versus dissection; P for heterogeneity, 0.01), and the benefit from acute carotid stenting was only observed for patients with atherosclerosis. Conclusions: Patients treated with acute cervical ICA stenting for tandem occlusion strokes had higher odds of 90-day favorable outcome, despite higher odds of intracerebral hemorrhage; however, most of the intracerebral hemorrhages were asymptomatic.

    Abstract: Although the efficacy of endovascular treatment (EVT) in patients with anterior circulation ischemic stroke (AIS) is well documented, early neurological deterioration after EVT remains a serious issue associated with poor outcome. Besides obvious causes, such as lack of reperfusion, procedural complications, or parenchymal hemorrhage, early neurological deterioration may remain unexplained (UnEND). Our aim was to investigate predictors of UnEND after EVT in patients with AIS. Methods: Patients who underwent EVT for AIS, with an initial National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score 〉 5, Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score ≥6, and included in a multicenter prospective observational registry were analyzed. Predictors of UnEND, defined as ≥4-point increase in the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score between baseline and day 1 after EVT, were determined via center-adjusted analyses. Results: Among the 1925 included in the analysis, 128 UnEND (6.6%) were recorded. In multivariate analysis, predictors of UnEND were diabetes mellitus (odds ratio [OR], 2.17 [95% CI, 1.32–3.56] ), prestroke modified Rankin Scale score ≥2 (OR, 2.22 [95% CI, 1.09–4.55]), general anesthesia (OR, 2.55 [95% CI, 1.51–4.30] ), admission systolic blood pressure (OR, 1.10 [95% CI, 1.01–1.20]), age (OR, 1.38 [95% CI, 1.14–1.67] ), number of passes (OR, 1.16 [95% CI, 1.04–1.28]), direct admission or not to a comprehensive stroke center (OR, 0.49 [95% CI, 0.30–0.81] ), and initial National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score (OR, 0.65 [95% CI, 0.52–0.81]). Conclusions: Severely impaired AIS patients with nonmodifiable factors are more likely to develop UnEND. Some modifiable predictors of UnEND such as the number of EVT passes could be the object of improvement in AIS management.

    Abstract: Approximately half of the patients with acute ischemic stroke due to anterior circulation large vessel occlusion do not achieve functional independence despite successful reperfusion. We aimed to determine influence of reperfusion strategy (bridging therapy, intravenous thrombolysis alone, or mechanical thrombectomy alone) on clinical outcomes in this population. Methods: From ongoing, prospective, multicenter, observational Endovascular Treatment in Ischemic Stroke registry in France, all patients with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion who achieved successful reperfusion (modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction 2b-3) following reperfusion therapy were included. Primary end point was favorable outcome, defined as 90-day modified Rankin Scale score ≤2. Patient groups were compared using those treated with bridging therapy as reference. Differences in baseline characteristics were reduced after propensity score-matching, with a maximum absolute standardized difference of 14% for occlusion site. Results: Among 1872 patients included, 970 (51.8%) received bridging therapy, 128 (6.8%) received intravenous thrombolysis alone, and the remaining 774 (41.4%) received MT alone. The rate of favorable outcome was comparable between groups. Excellent outcome (90-day modified Rankin Scale score 0–1) was achieved more frequently in the bridging therapy group compared with the MT alone (odds ratio after propensity score-matching, 0.70 [95% CI, 0.50–0.96]). Regarding safety outcomes, hemorrhagic complications were similar between the groups, but 90-day mortality was significantly higher in the MT alone group compared with the bridging therapy group (odds ratio, 1.60 [95% CI, 1.09–2.37] ). Conclusions: This real-world observational study of patients with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion demonstrated a similar rate of favorable outcome following successful reperfusion with different therapeutic strategies. However, our results suggest that bridging therapy compared with MT alone is significantly associated with excellent clinical outcome and lower mortality.

    Abstract: Parenchymal hematoma (PH) is a rare but dreadful complication of acute ischemic stroke with unclear underlying mechanisms. We aimed to study the incidence and predictors of PH after mechanical thrombectomy. Methods— Data from a prospective observational multicenter registry was screened to identify acute ischemic stroke patients with an anterior circulation large vessel occlusion who underwent mechanical thrombectomy. Clinical, imaging, and procedural characteristics were used for the analysis, including brain imaging systematically performed at 24 hours. PH occurrence was assessed according to ECASS (European Collaborative Acute Stroke Study) criteria. Univariate and multivariable analyses were performed to identify predictors of PH. Results— A total of 1316 patients were included in the study. PH occurred in 153 out of 1316 patients (11.6%) and was associated with a lower rate of favorable outcome and increased mortality. On multivariable analysis, age (per 1 year increase, odds ratio [OR], 1.01; 95% CI, 1.00–1.03; P =0.05), current smoking (OR, 2.02; 95% CI, 1.32–3.09; P 〈 0.01), admission Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (per a decrease of 1 point, OR, 1.70; 95% CI, 1.18–2.44; P 〈 0.01), general anesthesia (OR, 1.98; 95% CI, 1.36–2.90; P 〈 0.001), angiographic poor collaterals (OR, 2.13; 95% CI, 1.36–3.33; P 〈 0.001) and embolization in new territory (OR, 2.94; 95% CI, 1.70–5.10; P 〈 0.001) were identified as independent predictors of PH. Conclusions— PH occurred at a rate of 11.6% after mechanical thrombectomy, with high morbidity and mortality. Our study identified clinical, radiological, and procedural predictors of PH occurrence that can serve as the focus of future periprocedural management studies with the aim of reducing its occurrence.
