Endovascular Thrombectomy for a Progressive Stroke Patient With a High‐Burden Carotid Free‐Floating Thrombus

Abstract

Carotid free‐floating thrombus (FFT) is a rare cause of acute ischemic events. The optimal management of carotid FFT remains unclear. The optimal and individualized management of carotid FFT should be determined based on the underlying etiology, clinical manifestation, and imaging characteristics. we reported a case with endovascular thrombectomy for a progressive stroke patient with a high‐burden carotid free‐floating thrombus.
