Cerebral Edema in Patients With Large Ischemic Core After Thrombectomy: A Secondary Analysis of SELECT2 Randomized Trial

Key Points

• The research investigates the occurrence of cerebral edema in patients with a large ischemic core following thrombectomy.
• Conducted a secondary analysis of the SELECT2 randomized trial data.
• Evaluated patients who underwent thrombectomy for large ischemic cores.
• Analyzed the incidence and severity of cerebral edema post-procedure.
• Found significant levels of cerebral edema in patients with large ischemic cores post-thrombectomy.
• Identified key factors associated with increased edema severity.
