- Abstract
Aim: Based on an annual questionnaire, an analysis of the techniques used in endovascular recanalization of large cerebral artery occlusions in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in 2021 was performed. Method: In 2022, all centres of highly specialised cerebrovascular care and 2 primary centres in the Czech Republic were surveyed. The structured questionnaire in the section on endovascular procedures for AIS focused on the number of patients thrombectomized, the proportion of procedures where technically only a stent retriever was used versus a combination of stent retriever and aspiration catheter, and the number of procedures where only an aspiration catheter was used. The numbers of acutely implanted extra- and intracranial stents in these procedures and the percentage of balloon guiding catheters used were also queried. Results: Mechanical thrombectomy was performed in 1439 patients in 2021, of whom between 70 and 147 patients were treated in 13 comprehensive cerebrovascular centres, and 41 and 49 patients were treated in two ict centres. The ratio of stentretriever: stentretriever + aspiration catheter: aspiration catheter combination techniques used was approximately 0,8: 1: 0,6. A total of 114 extracranial stents (per centre ranging from 0-19) and 19 intracranial stents (per centre ranging from 0-6) were implanted acutely. Overall, a stent was acutely implanted in 11.8% of patients. Balloon catheters were used in 55% of the procedures. Conclusion: The surveyed parameters show that the number of patients treated endovascularly for iCMP in the Czech Republic in 2021 slightly decreased (to 99.3% in 2020), the number of procedures in complex centres differed by up to two times. The stent were acutely implanted in 11.8% procedures. The technique of flow arrest in the access artery was used in about 55% of procedures.
