Abstract

Background: Large core acute ischemic stroke (AIS) caused by large vessel occlusion (LVO) is associated with high rates of disability despite mechanical thrombectomy (MT) treatment. Recent studies suggest that prolonged venous transit (PVT) may indicate impaired venous drainage, influencing functional outcomes. However, its prognostic value in large core AIS-LVO patients remains unclear. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study using data from consecutive patients with AIS-LVO and large ischemic core volumes (ASPECTS 6s) and large core volumes (rCBF
