Endovascular mechanical thrombectomy (EVT) is widely accepted as the
first-line treatment for acute ischemic stroke in patients with
large vessel occlusion. Being an invasive treatment, this method is
associated with various preoperative, perioperative, and
postoperative complications. These complications may influence
peri-interventional morbidity and mortality and therefore treatment
efficacy and clinical outcome. The aim of this review is to discuss
the most common types of complications associated with EVT, the
probable mechanisms of injury, and effective methods to manage and
prevent complications.
