Distal emboli and emboli to new territories occur in up to 14% and 11% of large vessel occlusion mechanical thrombectomies, respectively. A retrospective review was conducted of 18 consecutive patients with large vessel occlusion acute stroke undergoing mechanical thrombecomy, subsequently developing distal emboli and/or emboli to new territory for which thromboaspiration using the 3MAX catheter was performed. Eighteen distal emboli and two emboli to new territory in 18 patients were treated in the distal M2 and M3 middle cerebral artery, pericallosal and callosomarginal arteries, and P2 posterior cerebral artery (all arteries ≥1.5 mm in diameter). 3MAX thromboaspiration was successful in 13/18 distal emboli and 2/2 emboli to new territory (total 15/20, 75%). 3MAX thromboaspiration resulted in improvement in the final modified treatment in cerebral ischaemia (mTICI) score in 14/18 patients (78%) compared with the in...
