The purpose of this study was to evaluate safety and efficacy of the Solitaire FR device in the treatment of patients with acute ischemic stroke secondary to large artery occlusion.

Methods—We conducted a retrospective study of consecutive patients presenting with acute ischemic stroke treated with Solitaire FR as the first-line device to restore blood flow in 6 experienced European centers. This study was entirely funded and supported by Coviden Neurovascular. An independent Corelab determined modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction scores on the preprocedure and postprocedure angiograms. Complete revascularization was defined as modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction 2b or 3 post-Solitaire FR device use.  Read More
