Contact Aspiration versus Stent-Retriever Thrombectomy for Distal Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusions in Acute Ischemic Stroke: Meta-Analysis

Contact Aspiration versus Stent-Retriever Thrombectomy for Distal Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusions in Acute Ischemic Stroke: Meta-Analysis

Purpose The evidence for endovascular therapy and choice of technique in distal middle cerebral artery (MCA) M2 segment occlusions in acute ischemic stroke remains controversial. We aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis primarily comparing reperfusion rates of stent-retrieval versus...
