Higher intracranial positioning of an 8 Fr guide catheter improves efficacy of aspiration thrombectomy in large vessel occlusion stroke
Positioning a large bore guide catheter in the petrous segment or further distal resulted in a significantly higher rate of first pass effect, faster procedural times, and equivalent final excellent reperfusion rates compared with more proximal guide catheter placement for patients with anterior circulation LVO.
