CTA-collateral status was the strongest pretherapeutic predictor of favorable outcome in ischemic stroke patients treated with EVT. CTA-collaterals are thus well suited for patient selection in EVT. However, the independent effect of reperfusion on outcome tended to be stronger than that of CTA-collaterals.
