Pseudoaneurysm Formation after Repetitive Suction Thrombectomy Using a Penumbra Suction Catheter
With the recent advent of suction catheters, the use of manual aspiration thrombectomy (MAT) for patients with acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion has increased. Although contrast leakage and subarachnoid hemorrhage have been reported during MAT procedures, pseudoaneurysm formation due...
