Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is my pleasure to invite you to contribute to the upcoming Special Issue titled “Current Status of Endovascular Therapy for Acute Ischemic Stroke—2nd Edition”, the follow-up to the first volume, in which we published six papers. For more details, please visit:

Endovascular therapy (EVT) is now broadly recognized as one of the most powerful treatments for acute stroke caused by large-vessel occlusions. Recent advancements in acute ischemic stroke management via EVT have led to significant reductions in morbidity and mortality rates in selected patients with large-vessel occlusions. Despite these developments, post-stroke disability remains pervasive and further studies are needed in order to establish the role of EVT in posterior circulation and distal-vessel occlusions, with the need for the development of new and effective techniques for the revascularization of small vessels.
Many of these questions are the subject of current or upcoming clinical trials. This Special Issue aims to gather up-to-date publications regarding endovascular therapy for ischemic stroke and updates in pre-, peri-, and post-procedural management. This information will help improve acute stroke management and provide new perspectives on current clinical practice.
We are looking forward to your contributions to this Special Issue.
Prof. Dr. Iris Quasar Grunwald
Guest Editor
