Implication

Systematic review and meta-analysis show EVT improves functional outcomes in ischemic stroke patients beyond 24 hours, suggesting careful patient selection.

Key Points

Endovascular thrombectomy increased functional independence without affecting 90-day mortality.
Adjusted odds ratio for functional independence was 4.62 (95% CI, 3.30–6.47) across eight studies.
Analysis included 10 observational studies with 1871 patients, highlighting the risks and benefits of EVT.
Further randomized trials are necessary to validate findings and refine patient selection processes in late treatment.
