AIM: To report the experience of a regional @entity64 referral service with endovascular treatment for @entity1 with @entity64 ( @entity64 ) and large vessel occlusion. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A prospective review was undertaken of 93 consecutive cases receiving endovascular treatment for @entity64 over a 42-month period (January 2010 to June 2013). The National Institutes of Health @entity64 Scale (NIHSS), location of large vessel occlusion, details of endovascular procedure, and degree of reperfusion achieved (Thrombolysis In @entity385 [TICI] score) were recorded. Mortality and functional outcome (modified Rankin Scale [mRS]) were measured at 90 days. RESULTS: The mean @entity1 age was 62 years (range 26-87 years). The mean NIHSS at presentation was 16 (range 6-29). All @entity1 had confirmed proximal large-artery occlusion on computed tomography (CT) angiography: 87 in the anterior circulation, six in the posterior circulation. Of the 93 @entity1 treated, 64 (69%) received intravenous thrombolysis. Successful reperfusion (TICI grade 2a to 3) was achieved in 80 (86%) cases. There were 13 (14%) cases of failed vessel recanalisation (TICI grade 0). Good functional outcome ( @entity5329 ) was achieved in 51 (55%) cases. The 90-day mortality was 20 (22%) cases. Fifty-seven (61%) cases were transferred from outside centres. There was no significant increase in morbidity or mortality for transferred @entity1 . CONCLUSION: Successful endovascular recanalisation can result in good functional outcomes for @entity1 with @entity64 and large vessel occlusion. Our interventional neuroradiology service provides endovascular treatment as part of a regional @entity64 service without increase in morbidity or mortality for @entity1 transferred from outside institutions.

Endovascular treatment for XXXX with large vessel occlusion: the experience of a regional @entity64 service.
