Abstract:
Before irreversible neuronal damage occurs, quickly and securely recanalize vessels and restore blood flow to save the ischemic penumbra tissue are the main therapeutic target for acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Currently, the method for recanalization in early AIS is intravenous thrombolysis, how ever, the effect of intravenous thrombolysis is often not satisfactory because of the reasons, such as its short treatment time w indow , low vascular recanalization rate, and high incidence of bleeding complications. In recent years, w ith the research and development of mechanical thrombectomy device and the development of interventional technology, the therapeutic time w indow of AIS has been significantly prolonged, the vascular recanalization rate has increased significantly, the clinical outcome has improved significantly, and the treatment of mechanical thrombectomy has show n good application prospects.
