Prediction and outcomes of cerebral vasospasm in ischemic stroke patients receiving anterior circulation endovascular stroke treatment.

Vasospasm was a common complication in EVT affecting younger and previously healthy patients. Presence of vasospasm did not reduce the likelihood of successful reperfusion. As independent predictors, patient age, pre-stroke mRS, thrombectomy maneuvers, and stent retriever attempts predict the occurrence of vasospasm during EVT with good accuracy.
