Characterization of “Perfusion Scotoma” in Acute Ischemic Stroke Following Endovascular Treatment

Puntos clave

• The research aims to characterize perfusion scotoma in patients undergoing endovascular treatment for acute ischemic stroke.
• Analyzed data from patients treated for acute ischemic stroke
• Assessed the occurrence of perfusion scotoma after treatment
• Identified baseline predictors of scotoma and functional outcomes
• Perfusion scotoma occurred in 25% of patients
• Baseline predictors included male sex and lower ASPECTS scores
• Scotoma was associated with poorer functional outcomes in patients
