Figure 1. — Patient 1. (a, b) Angiogram showing a severe left ICA stenosis with acute thrombus formation and left MCA occlusion. (c) A 9 × 30 mm Carotid Wallstent was deployed across the left ICA origin. (d) The guiding catheter was advanced coaxially over the stent delivery shaft through the carotid stent to the distal C1 segment, and then the stent delivery system and FilterWire embolic protection device were successfully retrieved past the carotid stent via the guiding catheter. (e) Angiography via the guiding catheter showed left MCA thrombosis. (f) Good opacification of the left MCA after mechanical thrombectomy by the Solitaire device (4 × 20 mm). (g) A patent carotid stent at the left C1 origin at the conclusion of the operation. (h) Follow-up CT and CTA at 24 hours showed patent left ICA and MCA.
