Tough decision-making when encountering a #TandemOcclusion, however, @ThePICASSOTrial | @samialkasab @oozaidat aims to solve this question. @interneurona
#MondayTip #Tandem occlusions 🛑Simultaneous blockage of the extracranial ICA and an intracranial artery, commonly MCA ⚠️Atherosclerotic disease or artery-to-artery embolism 📉More severe strokes & worse clinical outcomes vs isolated LVO ☝️EVT is the mainstay👉careful strategy
