Early identification of intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) may impact the management of patients undergoing mechanical thrombectomy (MT). The aim of the study is to develop and validate a scoring system for pre-thrombectomy diagnosis of ICAD in posterior circulation large vessel/distal medium vessel occlusion strokes (LVOs/DMVOs).

Post-procedural outcomes included any intracranial hemorrhage, symptomatic ICH (sICH)
sICH is defined as local or remote parenchymal hemorrhage type 2, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and/or intraventricular hemorrhage, combined with a neurological deterioration of 4 points or more on the NIHSS from baseline or leading to death that the physician judged was causative of the deterioration) per ECASS III criteria
Time frame: June 1st, 2025
90 day modified Rankin scale (mRS)
a score of 0 to 4 on the modified Rankin scale (range, 0 to 6, with a score of 0 indicating no disability, 4 moderately severe disability, and 6 death) at 90 days, was changed to a good functional status (a modified Rankin scale score of 0 to 3, with a score of 3 indicating moderate disability)
