Implication

Retrospective cohort study evaluates emergent carotid stenting effect on outcomes in isolated cervical internal carotid artery occlusion patients, suggesting safety and efficacy.

Key Points

The study evaluates the effectiveness and safety of emergent carotid artery stenting during endovascular therapy for patients with isolated cervical internal carotid artery occlusion.
Retrospective multinational cohort study involving 42 centers
Included patients undergoing endovascular therapy for isolated cervical internal carotid artery occlusion
Compared outcomes of patients who underwent emergent carotid artery stenting with those who did not
Vessel patency was more common in the stenting group (83.5% vs. 40.7%)
Symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage rates were similar between groups (2.3% vs. 3.1%)
Any intracerebral hemorrhage occurred more frequently after stenting (19.3% vs. 9.3%)
Stenting did not significantly affect functional outcomes at 3 months, measured by modified Rankin Scale
