Mechanical thrombectomy for top of basilar artery occlusion and delayed distal thrombus migration involving the artery of Percheron: illustrative case

Understanding the anatomical and hemodynamic relationships between the BA and AOP is important for the effective treatment of acute BAO. In particular, ischemic changes in the posterior circulation can be reversible despite prolonged symptom duration. https://thejns.org/doi/10.3171/CASE25171.
