Association Between Thrombus Imaging Features on Ct and Clinico-Radiological Outcome in Patients With Middle Cerebral Artery Acute Ischemic Stroke Treated With Mechanical Thrombectomy

Abstract

rd 12 subjects were included, 8 had successful reperfusion and 9 had good FO. Subjects with good FO were slightly younger (mean: 72 y/o) than subjects with bad FO (mean: 77 y/o). Mean thrombus density was 55 HU in successful reperfusion subjects and 66 HU in unsuccessful reperfusion subjects. Mean thrombus density was 59.5 HU in good FO subjects and 56.3 HU in bad FO subjects. In subjects with successful reperfusion, thrombus length was < 5 mm in 62,5%, 5 to 10 mm in 12,5% and > 10 mm in 25%, and in subjects with unsuccessful reperfusion, thrombus length was < 5 mm in 50%, 5 to 10 mm in 25% and > 10 mm in 25%. Thrombus was located on M1 in 75% of subjects and on M2 in 25% of subjects in both successful and unsuccessful reperfusion groups.
