Recorded case from Bicêtre Hospital

Seven years after thrombectomy was established as the best treatment for cerebral artery occlusion, what are the specific problems with the M1 segment location?

Watch how this 34-year-old male patient who presented with right motor deficit, mutism, and homonymous hemianopia 11 hours after stroke onset was treated LIVE, and learn more about left M1 mechanical thrombectomy using the classical technique, i.e. long sheath introducer, balloon guiding catheter, microcatheter, and stentriever.
