Abstract
- Introduction Acute large vessel occlusion (LVO) can be secondary to thromboembolism or intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD). Data on LVO management due to underlying ICAD are scarce. We hypothesized that patients with ICAD have worse clinical outcomes following mechanical thrombectomy (MT) than those without ICAD. Methods We performed a retrospective analysis of consecutive patients who underwent MT for LVO in a large academic comprehensive stroke center between January 14, 2018 and October 24, 2021. Presence of ICAD at LVO site was determined by the interventionalist. We compared in‐hospital mortality, 90‐day mortality, and 90‐day modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores between those with and without ICAD, in unadjusted and adjusting logistic regression models. Results Among 215 patients (mean age 67.1±16.0 years; 60.5% female; 80.5% Black, median NIHSS score 16), ICAD was present in 38 patients (17.7%). Diabetes and dyslipidemia were more common in those with ICAD (57.9% vs. 38.4%, p = 0.027 and 29.0% vs. 14.7%, p = 0.035, respectively). Substantial reperfusion (TICI ≥ 2b) was achieved less often (84.2% vs. 94.4%, p = 0.031) but symptomatic ICH was also less common in ICAD patients (0% vs. 9.0%, p = 0.054). In‐hospital and 90‐day mortality were more common (36.8% vs. 15.8%, p = 0.003 and 52.6% vs. 26.6%, p = 0.002, respectively) and favorable functional outcome (mRS 0–2) at 90 days was less common (7.9% vs. 33.9%, p = 0.001) in ICAD patients. After adjusting for prognostic variables, ICAD was independently associated with in‐hospital mortality (OR = 4.1, 95% CI 1.7‐9.7), 90‐day mortality (OR = 3.7, 95% CI 1.6‐8.6), and poor functional outcome at 90 days (OR = 5.5, 95% CI 1.6‐19.4). Conclusions Symptomatic ICAD in a predominantly African American cohort is associated with increased odds of mortality and poor functional outcome at 90 days in patients with LVO undergoing MT. Further research is warranted to understand factors associated with worse outcomes and investigate alternative interventional approaches and medical management in this high‐risk population.
