Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) aims at restoring blood flow in case of acute ischemic stroke by removing the thrombus occluding a large cerebral artery. During the procedure with stent-retriever, the thrombus is captured within the device, which is then retrieved, subjecting the

Combined stent-retriever and aspiration intra-arterial thrombectomy performance for fragmentable blood clots
A proof-of-concept computational study
Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) treatment of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients typically involves use of stent retrievers or aspiration catheters alone or in combination. For in silico trials of AIS patients, it is crucial to incorporate the possibility of thrombus fragmentation

Treatment of acute ischemic stroke has been recently improved with the introduction of endovascular mechanical thrombectomy, a minimally invasive procedure able to remove a clot using aspiration devices and/or stent-retrievers. Despite the promising and encouraging results, impro

Acute ischemic stroke occurs when a thrombus obstructs a cerebral artery, leading to sub-optimal blood perfusion to brain tissue. A recently developed, preventive treatment is the endovascular stroke treatment (EVT), which is a minimally invasive procedure, involving the use of s
