BACKGROUND: Recent clinical trials have shown that patients with large ischemic cores have better outcomes with endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) compared with standard medical treatment (SMT) alone. The authors aim to assess whether the relationship between EVT and improvements in clinical outcomes varies depending on the location of the occlusive sites. METHODS: This study is a subgroup analysis conducted within a prospective, nationwide, multicenter registry. The cohort included patients with acute large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation and an Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score of 0-5 within 24 h from last known well. The authors utilized the adjusted common odds ratio for a shift toward better outcomes on the modified Rankin Scale after EVT compared with SMT alone as the primary outcome. Safety outcomes included symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH). RESULTS: A total of 745 patients with large ischemic cores were included: 272 (36.5%) with internal carotid artery occlusion, 392 (52.6%) with M1 segment of the middle cerebral artery occlusion, and 81 (11.0%) with M2 segment of the middle cerebral artery occlusion. The adjusted common odds ratios were as follows: 1.98 (95% CI: 1.01-3.89) for ICA occlusions, 2.09 (95% CI: 1.35-3.23) for M1 occlusions, and 1.13 (95% CI: 0.43-2.94) for M2 occlusions. There was no significant treatment-by-occlusion site interaction observed ( P =0.69). However, the incidence of sICH was significantly greater in...
