Abstract: Intracranial atherosclerosis (ICAS) is one of the main pathogenesis of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Intravenous thrombolysis is a main therapeutic method, enjoying good effect, but the recanalization rate is low and the risk of re-occlusion is high. Endovascular therapy has developed rapidly in recent years due to its long time-window for treatment, high recanalization rate and few complications. This article reviews the pathogenesis, characteristics, main therapeutic methods, complications and rescue measures of AIS due to ICAS. And the development of intravascular therapy is highlighted.
