Article Commentary: “Endovascular Versus Medical Therapy in Posterior Cerebral Artery Stroke: Role of Baseline NIHSS Score and Occlusion Site”
The role of endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in acute ischemic stroke has been widely expanded over the last decade, with the extension of the time window up to 24 hours 1 and inclusion of patients with large ischemic cores. 2 However, recent evidence has largely focused on patients with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion. The optimal management of posterior cerebral artery (PCA) occlusions is not known, with variable effects on functional outcomes shown in previous studies. 3 The optimal managemen
