Endovascular mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is a recommended treatment for acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion (LVO). The objective of the present study was to evaluate the impact of vascular risk factors on the outcome of MT outcomes in patients with stroke with LVO and to determine the prevalence of structural epilepsy in these patients. This was a retrospective cohort study involving patients with stroke between 20 and 80 years of age with LVO who underwent MT.
