Evaluation of effectiveness and safety of the large-format pRESET 6-50 thrombectomy stent-retriever in the endovascular treatment of ischemic stroke: real-world experiences from two tertiary comprehensive stroke centers

OBJECTIVE: Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) has become the standard treatment for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) with large vessel occlusion (LVO). First-pass (FP) reperfusion of the occluded vessel and fewer passes with stent retrievers show improvement in functional outcomes in stroke patients, while hig...

description OBJECTIVE: Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) has become the standard treatment for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) with large vessel occlusion (LVO). First-pass (FP) reperfusion of the occluded vessel and fewer passes with stent retrievers show improvement in functional outcomes in stroke patients, while higher numbers of passes are associated with higher complication rates and worse outcomes. Studies indicate that a larger size of the stent-retriever is associated with a higher rate of first-pass reperfusion and improved clinical outcomes. In this retrospective study, we investigated the clinical performance of a recently developed and one of the largest stent-retrievers available in the treatment of LVO (pRESET 6-50, phenox GmbH, Bochum). MATERIALS AND METHODS: All consecutive patients with ischemic stroke due to proximal large vessel occlusion treated with MT using the pRESET 6-50 stent-retriever in two tertiary stroke centers between 09/2021 and 07/2022 were included in this study. The reperfusion rate after MT was quantified by the modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (mTICI) score, and functional neurological outcome was evaluated with the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score and the major early neurological recovery (mENR) rate after 24 h. Successful FP reperfusion was defined as mTICI ≥ 2b. Successful and complete reperfusion were defined as mTICI ≥ 2b and mTICI ≥ 2c, respectively. RESULTS: In total, 98 patients (52 men and 46 women) with a median age of 75 (range 25–95 years) were included. A total of 70 (72%) patients presented with an occlusion of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) in the M1 segment, 6 (6%) patients with an occlusion of the M2 segment, 17 (17%) patients with an occlusion of the internal carotid artery (ICA), and 5 (5%) patients with an occlusion of the obstructed basilar artery (BA). Successful FP reperfusion was achieved in 58 patients (62%). Successful and complete reperfusion were achieved in 95 (97%) and 82 (83%) patients, respectively. The median National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) in all treated patients improved from 17 to 7.5. Major early neurological recovery (mENR) was observed in 34 patients (35.1%). CONCLUSION: MT with the pRESET 6-50 stent-retriever achieves high successful first-pass and final reperfusion rates in patients with AIS and LVO. The results of this study support the thesis to use large-format stent-retriever in proximal vessel occlusion MT whenever feasible in order to improve high FP and final reperfusion rate, which are known predictors of good clinical outcome.
