ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND AND

PURPOSE:

Intra-arterial thrombolytics may be used to treat distal vessel occlusions, which cause incomplete reperfusion following mechanical thrombectomy. Because immediate reperfusion after intra-arterial thrombolytics occurs rarely, the aim of this study was to assess the delayed effect of intra-arterial thrombolytics using follow-up perfusion imaging. MATERIALS AND

METHODS:

We included patients from a prospective stroke registry (February 2015 to September 2022) who had undergone mechanical thrombectomy and had incomplete reperfusion (expanded TICI 2a-2c) and available 24 hour perfusion imaging. Perfusion imaging was rated as delayed reperfusion if time-sensitive perfusion maps did not show wedge-shaped delays suggestive of persisting occlusions corresponding to the post-mechanical thrombectomy angiographic deficit. Patients treated with intra-arterial thrombolytics were compared with controls using multivariable logistic regression and inverse probability of treatment weighting matching for baseline differences and factors associated with delayed reperfusion.

RESULTS:

The median age of the final study population (n = 459) was 74 years (interquartile range, 63-81 years), and delayed reperfusion occurred in 61% of cases. Patients treated with additional intra-arterial thrombolytics (n = 40) were younger and had worse expanded TICI scores. After matching was performed, intra-arterial thrombolytics was associated with higher rates of delayed reperfusion (adjusted OR = 2.7; 95% CI, 1.1-6.4) and lower rates of new infarction in the residually hypoperfused territory after mechanical thrombectomy (adjusted OR = 0.3; 95% CI, 0.1-0.7). No difference was found in the rates of functional independence (90-day mRS, 0-2; adjusted OR = 1.4; 95% CI, 0.4-4.1).

CONCLUSIONS:

Rescue intra-arterial thrombolytics is associated with delayed reperfusion of remaining vessel occlusions following incomplete mechanical thrombectomy. The value of intra-arterial thrombolytics as a potential therapy for incomplete reperfusions after mechanical thrombectomy should be assessed in the setting of randomized controlled trials.
