Abstract:
Acute basilar artery occlusion (ABAO) accounts for approximately 1% of all ischemic strokes, with high mortality and disability rates. Endovascular therapy is one of the effective treatment methods for ABAO, which can recanalize the occluded blood vessels, rescue ischemic penumbra, and improve the outcome of patients. This article reviews the current research status of endovascular treatment for patients with ABAO.
