Endovascular treatment and outcome in patients with CTP-defined extra-large infarct core stroke
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Evidence for endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in patients with very large perfusion-defined infarct core stroke remains limited. METHODS: We performed a retrospective multicenter cohort study using prospectively maintained stroke registries from nine comprehensive stroke centers in China between 1 June, 2019 and 1 June, 2025. Adults with anterior circulation large-vessel occlusion involving the internal carotid artery or middle cerebral artery M1/M2 segment, presentation within 24 hours, and baseline CT perfusion (CTP)-defined ischemic core volume ≥100 mL were included. Ischemic core was defined as relative cerebral blood flow of
