Risk factors and impact on outcomes of high-density shadow on immediate cerebral CT after successful interventional recanalization in acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion
A low preoperative ASPECT score was an independent risk factor of high-density shadow on immediate cerebral CT after successful interventional recanalization, while a history of hypertension, mere use of balloon angioplasty and combination of balloon angioplasty and stent implantation may serve as a protective factor. Patients with diffuse high-density shadow had the worst prognosis and the highest incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and malignant brain edema.
