Patients presenting with an acute BAO treated with modern EVT have a good 90-day outcome in over one-third of cases. Age and discharge mRS are independently associated with good 90-day outcome. Additional studies may focus on factors that can enhance discharge function after BAO, a novel prognostic indicator for favorable 90-day outcome in our study.
