Brief summary (registry, in English)

Several studies have demonstrated that simultaneous treatment with two stentrievers (STs) as rescue treatment is very effective, with high recanalization rates even in this group of patients where other revascularization techniques have failed. There has been no observed increase in hemorrhagic complications. Recently, a prospective study has been published where treatment with two ST has been shown to be effective and safe if used as a first-choice treatment (not as rescue) with a successful recanalization rate (eTICI 2c/3) after the first pass of 69%. These results have been reinforced after the publication of a randomized study that confirms, in vitro, the superiority of using two ST over one.
