Reperfusion therapy in pregnant and postpartum women after ischemic stroke: a systematic review and single-arm meta-analysis

These findings support the use of reperfusion therapies associated with individualized decision-making-in line with European Stroke Organisation guidelines -, emphasizing that pregnancy and post-partum period should not be a contraindication to IVT or MT.
