Designing the future of thrombectomy in Poland: first we must agree on the principles

Abstract

Despite the constant development in all areas of care, ischemic stroke remains one of the leading causes of death and disability [1]. Hyperacute care has become highly oriented toward time-dependent reperfusion therapies, including intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) and, more recently, mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO) [2–5].
