Investigating Outcomes Post–Endovascular Thrombectomy in Acute Stroke Patients With Cancer

Our findings show that in contemporary medical practice, patients with acute stroke with comorbid cancer or metastatic cancer who undergo endovascular thrombectomy have similar rates of intracranial hemorrhage and favorable discharges as patients without cancer. This suggests that patients with AIS who meet the criteria for reperfusion therapy may be considered in the setting of a comorbid cancer diagnosis.
