Our results suggest that acute intracranial stenting is safe and effective as a rescue treatment after MT in acute stroke patients with underlying ICAD. Younger age was found as an independent predictor of good outcome. Nevertheless, ICAD still carries a high mortality and poor functional clinical outcome.
