Thrombus enhancement sign predicts distal embolization in anterior circulation stroke treated with endovascular thrombectomy
Our study demonstrates that distal embolization is a prevalent complication of EVT that hinders full recanalization and favorable outcomes. The presence of TES on baseline CT imaging could serve as a reliable radiologic predictor of distal embolization after EVT.
