Abstract | Objectives: Cancer-associated ischemic stroke tends to extend over multiple vascular territories and develops under poor general conditions. Owing to the rarity of such cases and poor prognoses, no comprehensive studies on mechanical thrombectomy for cancer-associated ischemic stroke have been reported in Japan. The present study investigated the radiological and clinical characteristics of mechanical thrombectomy in patients with cancer-associated ischemic stroke at our institution. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 108 patients who underwent mechanical thrombectomy for large cerebral artery occlusion between January 1, 2021, and October 31, 2022, at our institution. The characteristics of mechanical thrombectomy in the cancer-associated ischemic stroke group were compared with those in the control group. Results: Of the 108 patients (112 procedures), seven patients (eight procedures) with clinically diagnosed cancer-associated ischemic stroke underwent mechanical thrombectomy. Of the eight procedures, six were performed during hospitalization. In contrast, only 10 of 104 procedures were performed in the control group. The in-hospital onset rate was higher in the cancer-associated ischemic stroke group (75.0%) compared to that in the controls (9.6%); Conclusion: Cancer-associated ischemic stroke tends to occur during hospitalization. Coagulation disorders associated with cancer, especially adenocarcinoma, may be related to the formation of thrombi with fibrinoplatelet-dominant components, leading to ischemic stroke. The procedural time for mechanical thrombectomy in cancer-associated ischemic stroke tends to be longer. |
