Abstract
BACKGROUND The endovascular treatment procedure in tandem occlusions (TO) is complex compared to single occlusion (SO) and optimal management remains uncertain. The aim of this study was to identify clinical and procedural factors that may be associated to efficacy and safety in the management of TO and compare functional outcome in TO and SO stroke patients. METHODS This is a retrospective single center study of medium (MeVO) and large vessel occlusion (LVO) of the anterior circulation. Clinical, imaging, and interventional data were analyzed to identify predictive factors for symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) and functional outcome after endovascular treatment (EVT) in TO. Functional outcome in TO and SO patients was compared. RESULTS Of 662 anterior circulation stroke patients with MeVO and LVO stroke, 90 (14%) had TO. Stenting was performed in 73 (81%) of TO patients. Stent thromboses occurred in 8 (11%) patients. Successful reperfusion with modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (mTICI) ≥ 2b was achieved in 82 (91%). SICH occurred in seven (8%). The strongest predictors for sICH were diabetes mellitus and number of stent retriever passes. Good functional clinical outcome (mRS ≤ 2) at 90-day follow up was similar in TO and SO patients (58% vs 59% respectively). General anesthesia (GA) was associated with good functional outcome whereas hemorrhage in the infarcted tissue, lower mTICI score and history of smoking were associated with poor outcome. CONCLUSIONS The risk of sICH was increased in patients with diabetes mellitus and those with extra stent-retriever attempts. Functional clinical outcomes in patients with TO were comparable to patients with SO.

Abstract
PURPOSE Endovascular treatment of atherosclerotic tandem occlusions in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is a matter of debate. This article reports a single-center experience using an intermediate catheter with microballoon for treatment of tandem occlusions. METHODS A total of 151 AIS patients with large vessel occlusion received endovascular therapy and a consecutive series of patients (n = 26) who suffered from tandem cervical intracranial occlusions were treated using the Passing Extracranial Artery Occlusion by Intermediate Catheter with Expanding Microballoon (PEACE) technique. Intracranial recanalization was achieved by aspiration or stent retriever and then emergency stenting was performed for extracranial internal carotid artery (ICA) lesion. Demographic, clinical characteristics, procedural details of endovascular therapy, and prognosis outcome were assessed. The outcomes of tandem occlusion group were compared with isolated intracranial occlusion group (n = 122) and previous studies. RESULTS As compared to isolated intracranial occlusion groups, only a few patients suffered from atrial fibrillation (7.7% vs 38.5%, p<0.01) in tandem occlusions group. A larger proportion of patients (61.5% vs 29.5%) had tandem occlusions in which extracranial ICA occlusion was combined with intracranial terminus occlusion in ICA (p<0.01). 46.2% of tandem occlusions patients achieved intracranial recanalization by aspiration alone versus 15.6% in patients with isolated intracranial occlusion (p<0.01). In tandem occlusion patients treated with PEACE, 92.3% achieved successful reperfusion (thrombolysis in cerebral infarct [TICI] ≥2b). The median time from puncture to recanalization was 51 minutes (interquartile range [IQR], 41-66). 67.6% favorable functional prognosis (modified Rankin score [mRS], 0-2) was seen, with 11.5% mortality and 3.8% of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) at 90 days. These outcomes are all consistent or better than previously reported studies performed for tandem occlusion. CONCLUSIONS Endovascular therapy using the PEACE technique with intermediate catheter and lined expanding microballoon is safe, efficient, and fast in the treatment of atherosclerotic tandem occlusion patients.
