About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Ischemic Stroke

Eligibility Criteria

20 Years - 85 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Acute ischemic stroke patients who were treated with intravenous rt-PA therapy within 4.5 hours from onset and have persistent occlusion of IC and M1 proximal portion* confirmed by cerebral angiography.

    *: M1 proximal portion means the segment of MCA within 5mm from the internal carotid bifurcation.

  • Patients who can receive endovascular treatment within 8 hours after the onset.
  • Patients whose DWI-ASPECTS was 5 points and more, or CT-ASPECT was 6 points and more just before cerebral angiography.
  • Patients whose NIHSS is between 8 and 29 points.
  • Patients who are between 20 and 85 years.
  • Gender does not matter.
  • Consent of this study participants must be obtained from patients or legal representative in writing.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients whose neurological symptoms improved and NIHSS is eight points and less after intravenous rt-PA therapy.
  • Patients whose mRS was 3 points and more before the onset. 3)Patients with past history of lumbar puncture or arterial puncture that were difficult of hemostasis.
  • Patients with intracranial tumor
  • Patients with hypersensitivity to contrast agent.
  • Patients with serious renal disease.
  • Patients with malignant tumor.
  • Patients with pregnancy or suspect of pregnancy, or during lactation.
  • Patients with findings of acute myocardial infarction or pericarditis after myocardial infarction.
  • Patients who cannot be followed for 3 months.
  • Patients with past history of cerebral aneurysm, cerebral arteriovenous malformation, cerebral venous thrombosis, or moyamoya disease.
  • Patients with other occlusions besides ICA or M1 proximal portion.
  • Patients with aortic dissection complicating endovascular treatment.
  • Patients with tortuous arteries that prevent the navigation of the device to the target vessel.
  • Patients considered inappropriate to participate in the study.
