Abstract
Mustafa and colleagues1 present a thoughtful systematic review and meta-analysis on endovascular treatment (EVT) for acute ischemic stroke due to medium vessel occlusion (MeVO) that summarizes the currently available randomized evidence. Many questions with regard to MeVO EVT still remain unanswered, and the review provides a solid starting point to formulate these questions and direct future research in this rapidly evolving field, where uncertainty still dominates clinical decision-making. Their meta-analysis shows that EVT for acute stroke duI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
