Abstract 145: Thrombus Composition is Associated With Endothelial Injury and Stroke Etiology in Patients Undergoing Mechanical Thrombectomy for Emergent Large Vessel Occlusion

Introduction: High rates of recanalization of Emergent Large Vessel Occlusion (ELVO) provide an opportunity to examine retrieved thrombi. We studied device and endothelial (ET) interactions to evaluate ET injury and the relationship between thrombi and Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS) mechanism. Methods: Prospective registry examining immunohistochemical characteristics of retrieved thrombi in ELVO patients. Thrombi were categorized...
