Concomitant Acute Ischemic Stroke and Upper Extremity Arterial Occlusion: Feasibility of Mechanical Thrombectomy of the Upper Limb Using Neurointerventional Devices and Techniques

Concomitant Acute Ischemic Stroke and Upper Extremity Arterial Occlusion: Feasibility of Mechanical Thrombectomy of the Upper Limb Using Neurointerventional Devices and Techniques

Background: Concomitant acute ischemic stroke (AIS) caused by large vessel occlusion (LVO), and acute upper extremity arterial occlusion causing upper limb ischemia (ULI) is a rarely observed coincidence. The first-line treatment for AIS is mechanical thrombectomy (MT), with or without additional in...
