Abstract:
Objective To investigate the preliminary experience of mechanical thrombectomy with a tri-axial system of the Solitaire AB stent through a Neuro delivery catheter to treat intracranial large artery occlusion. Methods A tri-axial system was used to deliver the Solitaire AB stent through a Neuro delivery catheter to provide intracranial aspiration in close proximity to the stent. This technique was used in 1 case of acute middle cerebral artery occlusion and 1 case of acute basilar artery occlusion. Results Successful revascularization was achieved in these 2 cases. Thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (TICI)score was 3. The clot length of acute middle cerebral artery occlusion was 3 cm and the modified Rankin Scale (mRS)score of this case was 3 at 90 days follow-up. Another patient with acute bilateral vertebral occlusion was revealed successful recanalization by angiography. Conclusion The results suggest that this technique of a tri-axial system used of the Solitaire stent through a Neuro delivery catheter can effectively retrieve clots from the occlusive artery and minimize the chance of antegrade blood flow dislodging the thrombus.
