Outcome of patients with multivessel occlusion stroke after endovascular treatment

INTRODUCTION: Little is known about the implications of multivessel occlusions (MVO) in large vessel occlusion stroke patients who undergo endovascular treatment (EVT).

PATIENTS AND METHODS: We report data from the MR CLEAN Registry: a prospective, observational study on all stroke patients who underwent EVT in the Netherlands (March 2014-November 2017). We included patients with an intracranial target occlusion in the anterior circulation. An MVO was defined as an MCA occlusion (M1/M2) or intracranial ICA/ICA-T occlusion, with a concurrent second occlusion in the ACA or PCA territory confirmed on baseline CTA. To compare outcomes, we performed a 10:1 propensity score matching analysis with a logistic regression model including potential confounders. Outcome measures included 90-day functional outcome (modified Rankin Scale, mRS) and mortality.

RESULTS: Of 2946 included patients, 71 patients (2.4%) had an MVO (87% concurrent ACA occlusion, 10% PCA occlusion, 3% ⩾3 occlusions). These patients were matched to 71 non-MVO patients. Before matching, MVO patients had a higher baseline NIHSS (median 18 vs 16, p = 0.001) and worse collateral status (absent collaterals: 17% vs 6%, p < 0.001) compared to non-MVO patients. After matching, MVO patients had worse functional outcome at 90 days (median mRS 5 vs 3, cOR 0.39; 95%CI 0.25-0.62). Mortality was higher in MVO patients (46% vs 27%, OR 2.11, 95%CI 1.24-3.57).

DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: MVOs on baseline imaging were uncommon in LVO stroke patients undergoing EVT, but were associated with poor functional outcome.
