Effect of atrial fibrillation on outcomes after mechanical thrombectomy and long-term ischemic recurrence in patients with acute basilar artery occlusion

Effect of atrial fibrillation on outcomes after mechanical thrombectomy and long-term ischemic recurrence in patients with acute basilar artery occlusion

IntroductionAccording to the literature on anterior circulation, comorbid atrial fibrillation (AF) is not associated with a worse functional outcome, lower reperfusion rates, or higher rates of intracranial hemorrhage after mechanical thrombectomy (MT) compared to intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) or t...
